Transport properties in oxygen-doped cobalt phthalocyanine thin film devices

Investigation of structural, optical and electrical properties of a new cobalt phthalocyanine thin films with potential applications in perchlorate sensor

“…We have considered here, that holes are the majority carriers because the Cobalt phthalocyanine derivatives are a p-type organic semiconductor [27] and we have found a values of about 3.63 10 22 m À3 for Co(II)Pc-AP. The effective mobility determined is about 3.49 10 À9 cm 2 /V s, which is close to the values found in [26,27].…”

“…where the permittivity of Cobalt phthalocyanine (e r ) is equal to 3.25 [26], the permittivity of vacuum e 0 = 8.8410 À12 F m À1 , q = 1.610 À19 C and the thickness films is about 20 nm. We have considered here, that holes are the majority carriers because the Cobalt phthalocyanine derivatives are a p-type organic semiconductor [27] and we have found a values of about 3.63 10 22 m À3 for Co(II)Pc-AP.…”

Investigation of electrical conductivity in Schottky-barrier devices based on nickel phthalocyanine thin films

“…In low-voltage range, this differs from both, the expected Schottky and the Poole-Frenkel value, being 0.68 times the theoretical Poole-Frenkel value and double this factor for Schottky value. Similar behaviour has been reported previously for phthalocyanine films using aluminium-injected electrodes [18]. In the higher voltage range, values obtained for β are 0.36 times the theoretical value for the β PF and double this factor for β s .…”

Electrical and photovoltaic characteristics of indium phthalocyanine chloride/p-Si solar cell

“…Using values of e = 3.53 [15],m %10 À7 m 2 V À1 s À1 [20], and N v % 10 27 m À3 [21], the E t and N t values are found to be 0.11 eV and 1.53 Â 10 25 m À3 , respectively. The value of N t is comparable with those observed on cobalt phthalocyanine [22], nickel phthalocyanine [23] and PbPc [24] i.e., 1.5 Â 10 25 m À3 , 7.8 Â 10 25 m À3 and 5.18 Â 10 25 m À3 , respectively. The series resistance, R s , is an important parameter since it affects the electrical characteristics of the rectifying contacts.…”
