F.In this work, the effects of the structural evolutions caused by the insertion of indium slabs (100 nm) between layers of cupric oxide on the electrical and optical properties are investigated. The stacked layers of Cu2O/Cu2O (CC) which are thermally annealed at 500 degrees C in a vacuum media is observed to comprise both of the CuO (45.9%) and Cu2O (54.1%) phases in its structure. The major structural phase of CuO and Cu2O are monoclinic and orthorhombic, respectively. Insertion of indium slabs which is followed by thermal annealing reduced the content of CuO to 29.2% and enriched the content of Cu2O to 70.8%. The CC samples exhibited structural phase transitions from monoclinic CuO to hexagonal Cu2O in the presence of indium and under thermal annealing. The insertion of indium slabs in the samples increased the crystallite size and enhanced the optical transmittance. It also decreased the microstrain, the defect density and the electrical resistivity. The donor states are shifted deeper below the conduction band edge. The nature of optical transitions also changed from direct allowed to direct forbidden with a decrease in the energy band gap values from 2.05 to 0.85 eV upon indium slabs insertion followed by annealing process.Article Citation - WoS: 3Citation - Scopus: 4Preparation and Characterization of Cdo/In6< Thin Film Transistors(Univ Fed Sao Carlos, dept Engenharia Materials, 2020) AlGarni, Sabah E.; Qasrawi, A. F.In this study, the design and characterization of CdO/InSe thin film transistors (TFT) that are grown onto Au substrates are investigated. The devices are also subjected to a vacuum annealing process at 300 degrees C to enhance the structure and electrical performance. It was observed that the growth of polycrystalline monoclinic In6Se7 phase of InSe is preferred at this annealing temperature when coated onto Au/CdO substrates. Electrically, noisy negative capacitance effect accompanied with resonance-antiresonance phenomena is observed in the capacitance spectra of the as prepared TFT devices. The annealing of the TFT devices reduced the noise in the capacitance, conductance, impedance, and reflection coefficient and return loss spectral responses. The heat treated TFT devices displayed low bandpass, high bandpass and bandstop filter characteristics in the studied frequency domain (0.01-1.80 GHz) indicating the applicability of these devices as radio wave-microwave resonators.
