ABSTRACTTunnel effects in luminescence spectra and electrical properties of blue InGaN/AlGaN/GaN LEDs were studied. The tunnel radiation in a spectral region of 2.1–2.4 eV predominates at low currents (J<0.2 mA). The role of tunnel effects grows as the maximum of the main blue line in LEDs is shifted to short wavelengths. The position of the tunnel maximum ћωmax is approximatly proportional to the voltage eU. The spectral band is described by the theory of tunnel radiative recombination. Current-voltage characteristics have a tunnel component at low direct and reverse currents. The distribution of charged impurities was received from dynamic capacitance measurements. There are charged layers at heterointerfaces and adjacent compensated layers in the structures. There is a high electric field in the active layer. The energy diagram is analysed.

ABSTRACTTunnel effects in luminescence spectra and electrical properties of LEDs based on InGaN/GaN-heterostructures made by different technological groups were studied. The tunnel radiation in a spectral region of 1.9 - 2.7 eV predominates at low currents (J<0.2 mA). The position of the tunnel luminescence maximum orħħωmax is approximately equal to the voltage U, orħħωmax = eU. The low energy spectral band is described by the theory of tunnel radiative recombination. Tunnel recombination mechanisms in GaN-based heterostructures are caused by high electric fields in the active InGaN/GaN - MQW layers. The energy diagram of the structures is analyzed. The probability of tunnel radiation is higher due to piezoelectric fields in InGaN quantum wells. The tunnel radiation spectral band was not observed in the more effective LEDs with modulated doped MQWs. The spectra of GaN-based LEDs are compared with tunnel radiation spectra of GaAs-, InP- and GaSb- based LEDs. The equation: orħħωmax = eU describes experimental data in various semiconductors in the range 0.5–2.7 eV.

Conditions for the production of rectifying semiconductor-insulator-semiconductor (SIS) heterostructures n-SnS2/CdTeO3/p-Cd1−xZnxTe with the use of the spray-pyrolysis of SnS2 thin films on p-Cd1−xZnxTe crystalline substrates with the formation of an intermediate tunnel-thin CdTeO3 oxide layer have been studied. By analyzing the temperature dependences of the current-voltage characteristics, the dynamics of the heterostructure energy parameters is determined, and the role of energy states at the CdTeO3/p-Cd1−xZnxTe interface in the formation of forward and reverse currents is elucidated. By analyzing the capacity-voltage characteristics, the processes of charge accumulation and inversion in SIS structures is considered. An energy diagram of the examined heterostructure, which well describes experimental electro-physical phenomena, is proposed.

Abstract—Light-emitting organic field-effect transistors (LE-FETs) on the basis of composite films that consist of perovskite nanocrystals (CsPbBr_3) embedded in a matrix of conjugated polymer—polyfluorene (PFO)—have been obtained, and their electrical and optical properties have been investigated. Output and transfer current-voltage characteristics (I-Vs) of FETs based on PFO : CsPbBr_3 films (component ratio 1 : 1) have a slight hysteresis at temperatures of 100–300 K and are characteristic of hole transport. The hole mobility is ∼3.3 and ∼1.9 cm^2/(V s) at the modes of the saturation and low fields, respectively, at 250 K and reaches ∼5 cm^2/(V s) at 100 K. It has been shown that the application of pulsed voltage to LE-FETs based on PFO : CsPbBr_3 can reduce the ionic conductivity and provide electroluminescence in this structure at 300 K.

The effect of WO3doping on microstructural and electrical properties of ZnO-Pr6O11based varistor materials was investigated. The doped WO3plays a role of inhibitor in ZnO grain growth, resulting in decreased average grain size from 2.68 to 1.68 μm with increasing doping level of WO3from 0 to 0.5 mol%. When the doping level of WO3was lower than 0.05 mol%, the nonlinear current-voltage characteristics of the obtained varistors could be improved significantly with increasing amount of WO3doped. But when the doping level of WO3became higher, their nonlinear current-voltage performance would be dramatically deteriorated when more WO3was doped. The optimum nonlinear coefficient, varistor voltage, and leakage current of the samples were about 13.71, 710 V/mm and 13 μA/cm2, respectively, when the doping level of WO3was in the range from 0.03 to 0.05 mol%.

The role of spin states in the process of charge carrier transport in copper phthalocyanine (CuPc) nanowires has been established. According to the data obtained, CuPc nanowires are in the η-phase. The current-voltage characteristics (IVC) of a photosensitive cell based on CuPc nanowires in a magnetic field are investigated. As a result of experiments, it was found that applying an external magnetic field, the spins of two positively charged polarons are oriented in one direction. The channel of formation of the bipolaron is blocked. As a result, a decrease in the short-circuit current of the photosensitive cell is observed by more than 61%.
