摘要
This work investigates the electrical and optical properties of hybrid GaN/pentacene heterostructures. We identify bipolar transport in GaN/pentacene by I-V and C-V measurements. Further results show a much stronger photocurrent under AM1.5 illumination of GaN/pentacene/Au structures than that of simple GaN/Au Schottky diodes. The higher photocurrent can be explained with the additional absorption of low-energy photons by pentacene. We introduce an interface model describing the behaviour of photogenerated charge carriers pairs for the case of Ga-polar n-GaN and pentacene. These results demonstrate the enhancement of inorganic device performance by integration of organic semiconductors. (C) 2013 AIP Publishing LLC.
