Electro-optical properties of the metal oxide-carbon thin film system of CdO-LCC

This article presents the results of a study electrical and optical properties of the thin film system of CdO-LCC. Cadmium oxide films were obtained by method of thermal oxidation. CdO-LCC thin film system was produced by applying on a CdO film a linear chain carbon film in thickness of 100 nm using the ion-plasma method, after which the obtained system was annealed. The studies showed that the obtained CdO-LCC films are quite transparent in the visible region; it has polycrystalline structure, thickness around 300 nm, the band gap to 2.3 eV. The obtained thin film system has photosensitive properties. (paper)
