Abstract
In this study, Al/SnS/PS/n-Si/Al photodiode was fabricated and investigated. SnS thin film were prepared by thermal evaporation technique on porous silicon layer which prepared by anodization technique at 32mA/cm2 etching current density and etching time 15min.The characteristics of porous silicon and SnS were investigated by using x-ray diffraction XRD, atomic force microscopy AFM, Fourier transformation infrared spectroscopy FT-IR.Dark and illuminated current-voltage I-V characteristics, spectral responsivity, specific detectivity of photodiode were investigated after depositing. Significant improvement in photosensitivity and detectivity of porous silicon photodiode after SnS deposition on porous silicon was noticed.
