Ohmic-rectifying conversion of Ni contacts on ZnO and the possible determination of ZnO thin film surface polarity.
The current-voltage characteristics of Ni contacts with the surfaces of ZnO thin films as well as single crystal (0001) ZnO substrate are investigated. The ZnO thin film shows a conversion from Ohmic to rectifying behavior when annealed at 800°C. Similar findings are also found on the Zn-polar surfa...
