ABSTRACTSpace Charge Limited Current (SCLC) measurements are used to obtain the density of gap states of intrinsic a-Si:H. If an electron is trapped by a positively charged defect, then the electron can be released by a high electric field which disturbs the SCLC measurement. A correction for this effect, which is called Poole-Frenkel emission, in SCLC measurements is derived and used to analyze current-voltage measurements performed on n-i-n a-Si:H devices. It is shown that the Poole-Frenkel emission is absent, and that this is in accordance with the contemporary models for the gap states in a-Si:H.We also studied the characteristic temperature which is based on the concept that the distribution of gap states is exponential, and concluded that this distribution is not exponential.

ABSTRACTA full and detailed transient space-charge-limited current (T-SCLC) study of a-Si:H p-i-n diodes has been carried out in the time range from 108s to 10s. In the short-time regime, general features of T-SCLC such as the current cusp and the carrier extraction period were observed, and related transport parameters were deduced. Electron emission from deep states was studied by measuring the current transients well beyond the extraction time. The emission time is thermally activated at temperatures higher than 250K and levels off at lower temperatures. The high temperature behaviour places the upper edge of the deep states at 0.42–0.52eV below the conduction band edge, and the attempt-to-escape frequency in the range of 1011-1013Hz. An observed shift of emission time with light intensity is attributed to defect relaxation.
