摘要
Semiconducting cuprous oxide films were prepared by electrodeposition onto copper substrates from an alkaline CuSO4 bath at temperatures between 40 and 60-degrees-C. The Cu2O films, which were deposited using a potentiostatic method, were found to exhibit exponential growth kinetics. X-ray diffraction studies revealed the formation of only Cu2O films with (200) preferred orientation. The observed current-voltage characteristics of the Cu2O/Cu device structures were found to be similar to that of a metal-insulator-semiconductor (MIS) tunnel diode, indicating the presence of a thin unidentified interfacial insulating layer between the copper substrate and the cuprous oxide film.
