Electrical and optical characteristics of Au/PbS/n-6H-SiC structures prepared by electrodeposition of PbS thin film on n-type 6H-SiC substrate

▶ The diffraction profile of the PbS thin film from XRD experiments has been extracted. ▶ An optical energy band gap value of the PbS film was obtained from the optical absorption spectra. ▶ The Au/PbS/n-6H-SiC Schottky diodes have been formed. ▶ The Schottky barrier height increase has been succeeded by the PbS interlayer.
