Research abstract
THE OBJECTIVE OF THIS RESEARCH IS TO INVESTIGATE THE PROPERTIES OF SCHOTTKY BARRIERS FORMED BETWEEN SEMICONDUCTORS AND ION INSERTION COMPOUNDS HAVING CONTINUOUSLY VARIABLE STOICHIOMETRIES AND WORK FUNCTIONS. IN PHASE I, THE DIODE P-SI/MXWO3 (M=H, LI, 0<X<1) WILL BE STUDIED, SINCE THE REACTION MX-^WO3 ^M+ + ^E- COVERS THE FULL RANGE OF POTENTIALS REPRESENTED BY THE P-SI BAND GAP. IN PARTICULAR, CONCEPTS OF FERMI LEVEL PINNING WILL BE TESTED. MXWO3 COMPOSITIONS WITH LOW WORK FUNCTIONS (HIGH X) WILL BE USED TO MAXIMIZE THE DIODE BARRIER HEIGHTS. THESE, IN TURN, WILL BE USED IN PHOTO-ELECTRO-CHEMICAL CELLS AND ASSOLID STAT DIODES TO PRODUCE PHOTOVOLTAIC CONVERTERS OF HIGH PHOTOVOLTAGE AND ENERGY CONVERSION EFFICIENCY.
