研究目的
To synthesize a supramolecular Cd(II)-metallogel and investigate its application as a semiconductive electronic device, specifically a Schottky barrier diode.
研究成果
The Cd(II)-metallogel exhibits semiconducting properties with a direct optical band gap of 3.88 eV and was successfully applied in a Schottky barrier diode with a rectification ratio of 97.38. The study demonstrates the potential of metallogels in electronic devices, with good charge transport parameters and stability up to 423 K.
研究不足
The metallogel is non-thermoreversible with a gel destruction temperature of 154 ± 2 °C, and the MS junction is not ideal due to inhomogeneities in Schottky barrier height and interface states. Optimization may be needed for higher temperature stability and ideal diode behavior.
1:Experimental Design and Method Selection:
A sonication-based method was used for synthesizing the Cd(II)-metallogel by mixing cadmium(II) acetate dihydrate and oxalic acid dihydrate in N,N-dimethyl formamide at room temperature under atmospheric pressure. Rheological studies, FESEM, UV-VIS spectroscopy, and electrical characterization were employed to analyze properties.
2:Sample Selection and Data Sources:
The metallogel was synthesized with specific concentrations (minimum critical gelation concentration of 1200 mg mL?1) and characterized using various instruments.
3:List of Experimental Equipment and Materials:
Cadmium(II) acetate dihydrate, oxalic acid dihydrate, N,N-dimethyl formamide (DMF), SHIMADZU UV-3101PC spectrophotometer, rheometer (TA Instruments), Carl Zeiss SUPRA 55VP FESEM, ZEISS EVO 18 instrument, Keithley 2635B sourcemeter, vacuum coating unit (HINDHIVAC 12A4D).
4:Experimental Procedures and Operational Workflow:
Mixing and sonication for ~6 hours to form the gel, followed by rheological measurements, FESEM imaging, UV-VIS analysis, device fabrication (ITO/CdA-OX/Al structure), and I-V measurements using a Keithley sourcemeter.
5:Data Analysis Methods:
Rheological data analysis (G' and G''), Tauc's equation for band gap calculation, Cheung's method for diode parameters, Mott-Gurney equation for mobility, and statistical analysis of electrical properties.
