Junction properties of aluminum/polypyrrole (polypyrrole derivatives) Schottky diodes

Abstract

The current-voltage characteristics of Schottky junctions formed by using aluminum on polypyrrole, poly(N-methyl pyrrole) and the copolymer Poly(N-methyl pyrrole-pyrrole) have been investigated. The formation of the junctions has been confirmed by capacitance-voltage characteristics and Chot plots. The results have been explained on the basis of thermionic emission theory. © 1997 American Institute of Physics.
