Thin films of Co3O4 were fabricated using electrochemical deposition, showing a p-type photo response. Pn heterostructures were then formed with ZnO, exhibiting clear rectification properties.
Co3O4 thin films were fabricated using electrochemical deposition (ECD). Co(OH)(2) precursor films were deposited galvanostatically from an aqueous solution containing Co(NO3)(2) and NH4NO3, and subsequently converted to Co3O4 by annealing in the air ambient. The Co3O4 films had two absorption edges corresponding to energy levels of 1.5 and 2.0 eV, and exhibited a clear p-type photo response in the photoelectrochemical measurement. The pn heterostructures were fabricated with ZnO as the n-type partner. ZnO was first deposited using ECD, Co(OH)(2) was subsequently deposited on it, and finally the sample was annealed. The fabricated Co3O4/ZnO structure exhibited clear rectification properties.
