Photoelectric properties of Al/In2Se3 Schottky barriers

Journal of Applied Spectroscopy Aims and scope

Abstract

We used directional solidification of the melt to grow single crystals of the binary compound In2Se3 and then determined the composition of the crystals obtained and their structure. From Hall effect measurements, we determined the type of conductivity, the concentration, and the Hall mobility of the free electrons in the single crystals obtained, on which we developed photosensitive Al/In2Se3 Schottky barriers for the first time and determined their photoelectric properties. We established that the indicated barriers can be used to design broadband optical photoconverters based on In2Se3 single crystals.
