Abstract

In this work, we demonstrate the preparation of simple and inexpensive spray route for the preparation of pure and W doped NiO thin films on the quartz glass plates. The microstructure and morphological properties were investigated using an X-ray diffraction and Scanning electron microscopic (SEM) studies. SEM images notify the presence of hollow sphere and the energy dispersive spectrum confirms the existence of both Ni and W in the prepared films. Electrical properties were investigated by two probe conductivity studies. In addition to these studies (n-Si/NiO/Au and n- Si/W:NiO/Au) diodes were fabricated and their chattels were deliberated.
