Compared to the p–n junction type device (Device A) with an n-type ZnO nanowire (n-ZnO)/p-type silicon (p-Si) hybrid structure, the newly designed device (Device B) with an n-ZnO/reduced graphene oxide sheet (rGO)/p-Si hybrid structure displays interesting electrical characteristics such as lower turn-on voltage and better current symmetry. The addition of rGO between n-ZnO and the p-Si substrate enables tuning of the p–n junctions into back-to-back Schottky junctions and lowering of the turn-on voltages, implying great potential applications in electronic and optoelectronic devices. The electrical characteristics and operating mechanism of these two devices are fully discussed.

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics (PCCP) is an international journal co-owned by 19 physical chemistry and physics societies from around the world. This journal publishes original, cutting-edge research in physical chemistry, chemical physics and biophysical chemistry. To be suitable for publication in PCCP, articles must include significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry; this is the most important criterion that reviewers and Editors will judge against when evaluating submissions. The journal has a broad scope and welcomes contributions spanning experiment, theory, computation and data science. Topical coverage includes spectroscopy, dynamics, kinetics, statistical mechanics, thermodynamics, electrochemistry, catalysis, surface science, quantum mechanics, quantum computing and machine learning. Interdisciplinary research areas such as polymers and soft matter, materials, nanoscience, energy, surfaces/interfaces, and biophysical chemistry are welcomed if they demonstrate significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry. Joined experimental/theoretical studies are particularly appreciated when complementary and based on up-to-date approaches.
