“…The sample was connected in series to a DC power supply and a picoammeter (Keithley 480). The details of experimental setup used in the present study is reported elsewhere [22]. The applied voltage was increased from 0 to 400 V in steps of 20 V and the corresponding dark current was recorded.…”

“…The dark current of the crystal is more than the photocurrents which is termed as negative photoconductivity. The negative photoconductivity exhibited by the sample may be due to the reduction in the number of charge carriers in the presence of radiation [13,14]. The decrease in mobile charge carriers during negative photoconductivity can be explained by the Stockmann model also, which is reported elsewhere [15].…”
“…The details of the experimental setup used in the present work is reported elsewhere [14]. Dark conductivity of the sample was first measured by connecting the sample in series to a DC power supply and a picoammeter.…”
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
