Abstract

The nonideal AgBr-AgI hetero-contact has been considered. The Poisson equations for this heterocontact are solved in the linear approximation for planar, spherical, and cylindrical geometric layouts. Expressions for the band bending at the interface are obtained. The dependence of the band bending on the core size and shape and the surface charge at the interface is calculated. It is shown that the band bending at the AgBr-AgI interface depends not only on the core size but also on the geometric characteristics of the photosensitive core-shell system.
