Schottky Diode (SD) Al/a-Se/Au as a solar cell (SC) was prepared by thermal evaporation technique (TET) on glass thin slide as a substrate under vacuum (10!" mbar). The Schottky Barrier (SB) have been prepared with different thicknesses (300, 500 and 700) nm in room temperature and (343) K annealing temperature. The current-voltage (IV) physical properties of the SB have got rectification properties and approved as a SC. This cell is developed with increased annealing temperatures and thickness of layers of SD. Experience under lighting shows good efficiency (η), which increased linearly with both thickness and annealing temperatures from (0.0318% to 4.064%) and from (0.0318% to 0.4778%). This is for three values of lighting power density (160, 230, 400) 𝑚𝑊/𝑐𝑚# in which the behave is similar. The best efficiency obtained in this work was (15.286)% at a power density of 400 𝑚𝑊/𝑐𝑚# , with thickness 700nm and 343K annealing temperature. Also (12.407)% at 230 𝑚𝑊/𝑐𝑚#, with thickness 500nm for the same annealing temperature.

Al films (about 40 nm) were prepared on quartz substrates by thermal evaporation technique, and subsequently annealed in air for 1h at temperature ranging from 600 to 1300oC. The characteristics of the annealed films were investigated in this paper. The measurement results of XRD and Raman show that crystalline phase transformations of the annealed films will convert from γ, γ and α, up to α-Al2O3 with the increasing of the annealing temperature at 600 oC, 1200 oC, to 1300oC. AFM and transmission spectra reveal the effects of phase transformations on their morphology and optical properties.

AbstractThin films of mixed of Copper Phthalocyanine (CuPc) and Nickel Phthalocyanine (NiPc) are deposited onto a pure glass substrate by a simultaneous thermal evaporation technique at room temperature. The material D.C. electrical conductivity of films at room temperature and also films annealed at 523 K has been investigated. The optical absorption and band gaps of the films are also measured. The results show that the electrical resistance is lower for the mixed films compared with the pure samples and also the optical band gap decreases for the mixed samples compared to the pure samples.

This work reports the realization and characterization of 4H-SiC p+/n diodes with the p+ anodes made by Al+ ion implantation at 400°C and post-implantation annealing in silane ambient in a cold-wall low-pressure CVD reactor. The Al depth profile was almost box shaped with a height of 6×1019 cm-3 and a depth of 160 nm. Implant anneals were performed in the temperature range from 1600°C to 1700°C. As the annealing temperature was increased, the silane flow rate was also increased. This annealing process yields a smooth surface with a roughness of the implanted area of 1.7 - 5.3 nm with increasing annealing temperature. The resistivity of the implanted layer, measured at room temperature, decreased for increasing annealing temperatures with a minimum value of 1.4 0-cm measured for the sample annealed at 1700°C. Considering only the current-voltage characteristic of a diode that could be modeled as an abrupt p/n junction within the frame of the Shockley theory, the diode process yield and the diode leakage current decreased, respectively, from 93% to 47% and from 2×10-7 Acm-2 to 1×10-8 Acm-2 at 100 V reverse bias, for increasing post implantation annealing temperature.

In this work , CdSe thin films with different thickness (100 and 200) nm have been prepared at RT by thermal evaporation technique on glass substrate under vacuum of 10-5 mbar. These films have been annealed to different annealing temperatures (423,473 and523) K. The morphology structure of the films has been examined using atomic force microscope (AFM) analysis. AFM measurements showed that the average grain size values of CdSe thin films decrease with increasing of annealing temperatures from (RT-523K). While the average grain size values increase with increasing thickness. The electrical properties of these films were studied with different thickness and annealing temperature. The d.c. conductivity for all deposited films decreases with increases of annealing temperatures. The electrical activation energies Ea1 and Ea2 found to decrease with increasing of thicknesses. While increase with increasing of annealing temperatures. From Hall effect result, it is found that the carriers concentration increase with increasing of annealing temperatures. While decrease with increasing of thickness. Hall mobility, drift velocity, carrier life time and mean free path decrease with increasing of thickness and annealing temperatures

ABSTRACTWe report apparent robust doping of ZnO and MgxZn1-xO (x ∼20%) nanoparticle films by annealing in hydrogen gas. The annealing was done at sequentially higher temperatures from about 20 °C to 140 °C. The effect of the annealing was determined by comparing current-voltage measurements of the samples at room-temperature and in vacuum after each annealing cycle.The nanoparticles were grown using an aqueous solution and heating process that created thinfilms of ZnO or MgZnO nanoparticles with diameters of about 30 nm. When exposed to hydrogen gas at room-temperature or after annealing at temperatures up to about 100 °C, no measureable changes to the room-temperature vacuum conductivity of the films was observed. However, when the samples were annealed at temperatures above 100 °C, an appreciable robust increase in the room-temperature conductance in vacuum occurred. Annealing at the maximum temperature (∼135-140 °C) resulted in about a factor of about twenty increase in the conductivity. Furthermore, the ratio of the conductance of the ZnO and MgZnO nanoparticle films while being annealed to their conductance at room-temperature were found to increase and then decrease for increasing annealing temperatures. Maximum changes of about five-fold and seven-fold for the MgZnO and ZnO samples, respectively, were found to occur at temperatures just below the annealing temperature threshold for the onset of the robust hydrogen gas doping. Comparisons of these results to other work on bulk ZnO and MgZnO films and reasons for this behavior will be discussed.

The thermal evaporation technique was used to prepare the Ni-Cr films with a thickness of 200 nm and a rate of deposition  of 0.22nm/Sec. The annealing was performed at 373 and 473 K. The structural and optical analyses of the grown layers were achieved and XRD patterns showed amorphous structure transferred to polycrystalline for film annealed at 373 and 473 K. AFM analysis showed that the surface of Ni-Cr films is homogenous and the average roughness, optical energy gap and absorption coefficient were increased with increasing annealing temperature (Ta).
