Abstract
Thin films of (CdO)x (CuO)1-x (where x = 0.0, 0.2, 0.3, 0.4 and 0.5) were prepared by the pulsed laser deposition. The CuO addition caused an increase in diffraction peaks intensity at (111) and a decrease in diffraction peaks intensity at (200). As CuO content increases, the band gap increases to a maximum of 3.51 eV, maximum resistivity of 8.251x 104 Ω.cm with mobility of 199.5 cm2 / V.s, when x= 0.5. The results show that the conductivity is ntype when x value was changed in the range (0 to 0.4) but further addition of CuO converted the samples to p-type.
期刊介绍:
Journal of Ovonic Research (JOR) appears with six issues per year and is open to the reviews, papers, short communications and breakings news inserted as Short Notes, in the field of ovonic (mainly chalcogenide) materials for memories, smart materials based on ovonic materials (combinations of various elements including chalcogenides), materials with nano-structures based on various alloys, as well as semiconducting materials and alloys based on amorphous silicon, germanium, carbon in their various nanostructured forms, either simple or doped/alloyed with hydrogen, fluorine, chlorine and other elements of high interest for applications in electronics and optoelectronics. Papers on minerals with possible applications in electronics and optoelectronics are encouraged.
