Abstract

Разработана методика получения, исследованы структурные и электрические свойства сэндвич-структур типа электрод из оксида индия-олова (ITO) – конденсат коллоидных квантовых точек (КТ) PbS–Al-электрод (ITO – КТ PbS – Al). Отличительной особенностью используемых коллоидных КТ PbS является их синтез в воде с применением короткоцепочечного лиганда – молекулы тиогликолевой кислоты (TGA). Такой подход сразу обеспечивает создание проводящей пленки КТ без трудоемкой процедуры замены лиганда. Обнаружено, что обработка КТ PbS в растворе йодидом калия приводит к формированию фрагментов конденсатов в виде упорядоченных сверхрешеток. Показано, что проводимость сэндвич-структуры ITO – КТ PbS–Al преимущественно определяется барьером Шоттки, возникающим на границе пленка КТ PbS/Al-электрод. Вольт-амперная характеристика проанализирована с использованием уравнения Шокли для идеального диода. Обнаружено, что обработка КТ PbS в растворе йодидом калия приводит к улучшению параметра идеальности диода. Сделано заключение, что сэндвич-структуры ITO–КТ PbS–Al-электрод потенциально могут быть использованы как основа для ИК-фотодетекторов на основе КТ.
