摘要: The study of steady state and transient photocurrent measurement provide important information about carrier generation recombination phenomena in various semiconducting systems for photo-sensor device applications. In the present work, composition dependent analysis photocurrents was studied thermally evaporated Se-rich InxSb30−xSe70 films average thickness 800 nm. indirect optical gap has been calculated from transmission reflection data variation molecular units Raman spectroscopy. initial rise sharply to approach a value during illumination fast decay constant persistent current after stopping observed. intensity dependence obeys power law IPh = Fγ, where exponent tells process. fitted with stretched exponential function different compositions at light intensities. These results are development low cost photo absorbers solar cell applications visible region responsive sensor devices.
