Dielectric and Optoelectronic Properties of Inse/Cds Heterojunctions
(Springer, 2018) Abusaa, M.; Qasrawi, A. F.; Shehada, Sufyan R.
The effect of an InSe substrate on the structural, optical and dielectric properties of CdS/CdSe heterojunctions prepared by physical vapor deposition technique under vacuum pressure of 10(-8) bar are reported. The structural analysis carried out by x-ray diffraction revealed a strained type of growth of the CdS/CdSe heterojunction onto the InSe along the axis of the hexagonal lattice. The lattice mismatches and strained nature of the heterojunctions associated with the InSe participation causes a quantum confinement that results in a red shift in the energy band gap, enhanced near infrared (IR) light absorbability, and valence band offsets of 0.62eV and 0.53eV for the InSe/CdS and CdS/CdSe interfaces, respectively. In addition, a pronounced enhancement in the real part of the dielectric constant by 2.5 times is observed at 1.25eV. Furthermore, the Durde-Lorentz modeling of the optical conductivity of the CdS/CdSe and InSe/CdS/CdSe reveals significant increases in the drift mobility values from 43.8cm(2)/Vs at the CdS/CdSe interface to 100.0cm(2/)Vs upon replacement of glass by an amorphous InSe substrate. The other optical conduction parameters including the free carrier scattering time at the femtosecond level, the plasmon frequency and the free carrier density are also improved accordingly. The photocurrent illumination intensity dependence for the studied system showed that the presence of InSe increases the photocurrent values and changes the recombination mechanism from sublinear at the surface to trap-assisted recombination. The smart feature of the InSe/CdS/CdSe system is that the structurally controlled quantum confinement results in having mobile photocarriers arising from the enhanced absorbability and large dielectric response in the IR region.

Investigation of the Physical Properties of the Yb Nanosandwiched Cds Films
(Elsevier Science Sa, 2018) Abed, Tamara Y.; Qasrawi, A. F.; Al Garni, S. E.
In this study, the effects of the sandwiching of a 70 nm thick ytterbium film between two layers of CdS on the structural, compositional, optical and electrical properties are investigated. The X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, energy dispersion X-ray, visible light spectroscopy and impedance spectroscopy techniques are employed to achieve these effects. It was observed that, the nanosandwiching of Yb between two 500 nm thick films of CdS enhances the crystalline nature of the films without altering the lattice parameters. Particularly, the grain size is increased by 25%, the strain, the defect density and the stacking faults are reduced by 31.5%, 43.7% and 25%, respectively. Optically, the Yb nanosandwiching is observed to enhance the visible light absorbability by at least 2.7 times of the whole range and by 8 times at 1.64 eV. The enhancement of the absorbability is associated with shrinking in the band gap and more interband states. In addition, an increase in the real part of the dielectric constant by 54% is observed when Yb was nanosandwiched in the CdS structure. The modeling of the imaginary part allowed exploring the electron-plasmon interaction parameters. A remarkable increase in the drift mobility from 281 to 996 cm2/Vs associated with plasmon frequency enhancement from 0.84 to 1.38 GHz was determined upon Yb nanosandwiching. The effectiveness of this modeling was verified from the impedance spectra in the frequency domain of 0.01-1.80 GHz, which revealed wave trapping property of ideal values of return loss at notch frequency of 1.35 GHz. Furthermore, the electrical resistivity measurements on the studied samples have shown that the presence of Yb reduced the electrical resistivity and shifts the donor level closer to the conduction band of CdS. The studies nominate the nanosandwiched CdS for use in optical and microwave technologies as dual devices. (C) 2017 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
