摘要
The mechanism of asymmetric carrier transfers on the light sensing of the a-Si:H p-i-n diode has been explored using devices of different i-layer thicknesses illuminated with lights of three different wavelengths, as well as the electric-optical stress method. The location of the photo-generated electron-hole pairs within the I-layer varies with the wavelength of the illuminated light, which contributes to the asymmetric transfer and loss of the carriers. Therefore, the performance of the a-Si:H p-i-n photodiode is a complicated function of the wavelength and defects in the structure. © 2017 IEEE.
