    Structural, Optical, Dielectric and Electrical Properties of Al-Doped Znse Thin Films
    (Springer, 2019) Kayed, T. S.; Qasrawi, A. F.; Elsayed, Khaled A.
    In this work, the heavy aluminum doping effects on the compositional, structural, optical, dielectric and electrical properties of ZnSe thin films are investigated. It is observed that the Zn/Se compositional ratio increases with increasing Al content. The major cubic phase of ZnSe becomes more pronounced compared to the hexagonal phase. In addition, the presence of Al in the structure of ZnSe causes lattice constant contraction, decreased the grain size and increased both of the strain and defect density. Optically, the Al doping increased the light absorbability and widens both of the energy band gap and energy interbands which are present in the band gap of ZnSe films. Moreover, the Al doping into ZnSe lowers the high frequency dielectric constant and enhances the optical conductivity. On the other hand, the capacitance spectra which are studied in the frequency domain of 0.01-1.80GHz displayed negative capacitance effect associated with resonance-antiresonance phenomena upon doping of ZnSe with Al. Such enhancements in the physical properties of ZnSe that are achieved via Al doping make the zinc selenide thin films more appropriate for electronic and optoelectronic technological applications.

    Characterization of As2se3< Heterojunction Designed for Multifunctional Operations
    (Iop Publishing Ltd, 2021) Qasrawi, A. F.; Kayed, T. S.
    In this article, As2Se3/MoO3 heterojunction devices are structurally, compositionally, optically and electrically characterized. The heterojunction devices which are prepared by the thermal evaporation technique under vacuum pressure of 10(-5) mbar are observed to exhibit amorphous nature of growth. The optical spectrophotometry measurements and analyses on the heterojunction devices revealed a conduction and valence band offsets of values of 2.64 and 4.08 eV, respectively. In addition, the dielectric dispersion and the optical conductivity parametric analyses have shown that the heterojunction could exhibit large drift mobility value up to 73.7 cm(2) V-1 s(-1). From electrical point of view, while the capacitance- voltage curves reveal characteristics of MOSFET devices, the current--voltage curves display tunneling diode characteristics. The features of the As2Se3/MoO3 devices including the band offsets, drift mobility, plasmon frequency, microwave band filtering and MOSFET characteristics make them attractive for use as thin films transistors suitable electrical and optical applications.
