Abstract
In this paper, we have investigated electrical
properties of germanium doped Gallium Selenide (GaSe) single crystals.
Germanium doped GaSe single crystals were grown by conventional Bridgman
method. Shchottky junctions were obtained by melting Te or Ag elements on the GaSe:Ge
surface. In contacts have been made for the electrical measurements.
Characteristic properties of Schottky junctions were investigated as functions
of temperature and electric field. It was observed that the ratio of forward
bias and reverse bias currents in the Schottky junctions varied with both
applied electric field and light excitations. Schottky junctions showed asymmetric
current-voltage (I-V) characteristics. The light sensitivity of In/GaSe:Ge/Ag/In
Schottky junction was found to be higher than that of In/GaSe:Ge/Te/In Schottky
junction. The barrier heights of In/GaSe:Ge/Te/In and In/GaSe:Ge/Ag/In Schottky
junctions were calculated as 52.92 meV and 41.82 meV, respevtively. Barrier
heights of both Schottky junctions decreased with applied electric field. It
was found that barrier heights of the Schottky junctions decreased with the
square root of the applied electric field as
while the
current increased exponentially with the square root of the applied electric
field as
. These results are consistent with the Frenkel
thermoelectric field theory.

Abstract
Bu
çalışmada, germanyum katkılı Galyum Selenit (GaSe) tek kristallerinin
elektriksel özellikleri araştırıldı. Germanyum katkılı GaSe tek kristalleri
geleneksel Bridgman metodu ile büyütüldü. Schottky eklemleri GaSe:Ge yüzeyleri
üzerine Te ve Ag elementleri eritilerek elde edildi. Elektrik ölçümleri için
indiyum kontaklar yapıldı. Schottky eklemlerinin karakteristik özellikleri
elektrik alan ve sıcaklığın fonksiyonuna bağlı olarak araştırıldı. Elde edilen
Schottky eklemlerinde düz yöndeki akımın ters yöndeki akıma oranının uygulanan
elektrik alan ve ışıkla uyarılmaya bağlı olarak değiştiği gözlemlendi. Schottky
eklemleri asimetrik akım-gerilim (I-V) karakteristiği gösterdi. In/GaSe:Ge/Ag/In
Schottky ekleminin ışık duyarlılığının In/GaSe:Ge/Te/In Schottky ekleminden
daha yüksek olduğu bulundu. In/GaSe:Ge/Te/In ve In/GaSe:Ge/Ag/In Schottky
eklemlerinin bariyer yükseklikleri sırasıyla 52.92 meV and 41.82 meV olarak hesaplandı.
Her iki Schottky ekleminin de bariyer yüksekliği uygulanan elektrik alanla
azaldı. Schottky eklemlerinin bariyer yükseklikleri uygulanan elektrik alanın
karekökü ile orantılı olarak
gibi küçüldüğü ve akımın uygulanan elektrik
alanın karekökü ile
gibi üstel olarak değiştiği bulundu. Bu sonuçların Frenkel
termoelektrik alan teorisi ile uyumlu olduğu görüldü.
