Abstract
Au/InSe interface formation was studied and a microscopic Schottky barrier of 0.7 eV was measured in accordance with the value obtained by I( V) and photovoltage measurements. This barrier is formed for submonolayer coverage before any chemical reaction or interdiffusion is evidenced. Its value is not determined by the metal work function as is the case with non reactive metals (Schottky behavior) but may depend on initial interfacial interactions.


Résumé
Nous avons étudié la formation de l'interface Au/InSe et mesuré une barrière de Schottky microscopique de 0,7 eV en accord avec la valeur obtenue par des mesures I( V) et de photovoltage. Cette barrière est formée dès la monocouche avant toute détection de réaction chimique ou interdiffusion. Sa valeur n'est pas déterminée par le travail de sortie du métal comme supposé avec des métaux non réactifs (comportement de type Schottky) mais pourrait dépendre des premières interactions interfaciales.

What is OpenURL?

The OpenURL standard is a protocol for transmission of metadata describing the resource that you wish to access. An OpenURL link contains article metadata and directs it to the OpenURL server of your choice. The OpenURL server can provide access to the resource and also offer complementary services (specific search engine, export of references...). The OpenURL link can be generated by different means.
  • If your librarian has set up your subscription with an OpenURL resolver, OpenURL links appear automatically on the abstract pages.
  • You can define your own OpenURL resolver with your EDPS Account. In this case your choice will be given priority over that of your library.
  • You can use an add-on for your browser (Firefox or I.E.) to display OpenURL links on a page (see http://www.openly.com/openurlref/). You should disable this module if you wish to use the OpenURL server that you or your library have defined.
