Defect-induced degradation of rectification properties of aged Pt ∕ n - In x Zn 1 − x O y Schottky diodes

In this study, Pt/IZO ( In x Zn 1 − x O y ) Schottky diodes were fabricated and the degradation phenomenon was investigated. The Pt/IZO Schottky diodes showed a rectifying ratio of 10 5 , however, the electrical properties were degraded with aging. An increase in defect and carrier concentrations wa...

Zusammenfassung:In this study, Pt/IZO ( In x Zn 1 − x O y ) Schottky diodes were fabricated and the degradation phenomenon was investigated. The Pt/IZO Schottky diodes showed a rectifying ratio of 10 5 , however, the electrical properties were degraded with aging. An increase in defect and carrier concentrations was observed from capacitance-voltage analysis and photoluminescence in the aged Pt/IZO Schottky diode. The degradation of the rectifying properties of the aged diodes originates possibly from the electron tunneling due to the increased defect concentrations.
