Photoelectric characteristics of Schottky diode based on a Ge/Si core/shell nanowire

Schottky photodiode fabricated with Ge/Si core/shell nanowires grown on Si (111) was quantitatively analyzed in terms of electrical properties as well as microstructure. The present device comprised of single nanowire grown by VLS process is quite sensitive enough to detect less than 1 pA at the mid...

Description
Summary:Schottky photodiode fabricated with Ge/Si core/shell nanowires grown on Si (111) was quantitatively analyzed in terms of electrical properties as well as microstructure. The present device comprised of single nanowire grown by VLS process is quite sensitive enough to detect less than 1 pA at the mid infrared of 3 μm. The barrier of the present nanowire Schottky photodiode isj 1.5 volts. We scrutinized the electrical characteristics of the nanoscale Schottky junction both at forward and reverse bias ranges with thermionic model.
