Influence of Oxygen Content on The Optical and Electrical Properties of NiO: Cu/ZnO pn Heterojunctions Fabricated by RF Sputtering
NiO:Cu/ZnO pn heterojunctions with different oxygen concentration were fabricated by magnetron sputtering technology. The rectifying characteristics of NiO:Cu/ZnO pn heterojunctions have been improved with the O
2
/(Ar+O
2
) ratio from 0% to 30%
where the average optical transmittance increases from 40% to 80% in the visible range
which may be explained by the improved crystallization due to the reduced defects. When the oxygen partial pressure increases to 80%
the rectifying property is depressed again because of introducing more oxygen into the sample and the appearance of more defects. These results are also evidenced by EDS
XRD
AFM and UV results.
