Electrical properties study of Copper Phthalocyanine ( CuPc) thin films

Abstract

   Thin film of copper phthalocyanine has been deposited onto glass substrates by using thermal evaporation technique at room temperature. The dark electrical resistivity () and thermoelectric power measurement were carried out at different temperatures in the range (293-503)K. The temperature dependence of current density allows  the calculation of  thermal activation energy that was (0.79)eV. Room temperature current-voltage characteristics measurement, using Hull effect allows the calculations of some essential parameters such as the electron mobility and concentration of electrons .
