Abstract :
n-CdO/p-Si heterojunction was prepared by means of the deposition of a cadmium oxide thin film (with n-type of conductivity) onto a polished polycrystalline silicon substrate (p-type of conductivity) using the spray-pyrolysis technique. I-V characteristics of the heterojunction were measured at different temperatures and the dominating current transport mechanisms were established at forward and reverse biases.
