Article Citation - WoS: 7Citation - Scopus: 7Design of the Zns/Ge pn Interfaces as Plasmonic, Photovoltaic and Microwave Band Stop Filters(Elsevier Science Bv, 2017) Alharbi, S. R.; Qasrawi, A. F.In the current work, we report and discuss the features of the design of a ZnS (300 nm)/Ge (300 nm)/GaSe (300 nm) thin film device. The device is characterized by the X-ray diffraction, electron microscopy, energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS), optical spectroscopy, microwave power spectroscopy and light power dependent photoconductivity. While the X-ray diffraction technique revealed a polycrystalline ZnS coated with two amorphous layers of Ge and GaSe, the hot probe tests revealed the formation of pn interface. The optical spectra which were employed to reveal the conduction and valence band offsets at the ZnS/Ge and Ge/GaSe interface indicated information about the dielectric dispersion at the interface. The dielectric spectra of the ZnS/Ge/GaSe heterojunction which was modeled assuming the domination of surface plasmon interactions through the films revealed a pronounced increase in the drift mobility of free carriers in the three layers compared to the single and double layers. In the scope of the fitting parameters, a wave trap that exhibit filtering properties at notch frequency of 2.30 GHz was designed and tested. The ac signals power spectrum absorption reached similar to 99%. In addition, the photocurrent analysis on the ZnS/Ge/GaSe interface has shown it is suitability for photovoltaic and photosensing applications. (C) 2017 The Authors. Published by Elsevier B.V.

M.; Işık, Mehmet; Department of Electrical & Electronics Engineering; Department of Electrical & Electronics EngineeringGaSe and GaS binary semiconducting compounds are layered structured and have been an attractive research interest in two-dimensional material research area. The present paper aims at growing (GaSe)0.75 - (GaS)0.25 (or simply GaSe0.75S0.25) thin film and investigating its structural and optical properties. Thin films were prepared by thermal evaporation technique using evaporation source of its single crystal grown by Bridgman method. The structural properties were revealed using x-ray diffraction (XRD), energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and atomic force microscopy (AFM) techniques. XRD pattern and EDS analyses indicated that thin films annealed at 300 ?C were successfully deposited and its structural characteristics are well-consistent with its single crystal form. Surface morphology was studied by means of SEM and AFM measurements. Optical properties were investigated by transmission and Raman spectroscopy techniques. Raman spectrum exhibited three peaks around 172, 242 and 342 cm-1. Analyses of transmission spectrum revealed the direct band gap energy as 2.34 eV. The mixed compounds of GaSe0.75S0.25 were prepared for the first time in a thin film form and the results of the present paper would provide valuable information to research area in which layered compounds have been studied in detail.
