View Patent ↗A sensor for detecting a received electromagnetic wave comprising a first electrode, a second electrode and an amorphous oxide layer interposed between the first electrode and the second electrode.
1. A sensor for detecting a received electromagnetic wave, comprising:
a first electrode;
a second electrode; and
an amorphous oxide layer interposed between the first electrode and the second electrode, wherein the amorphous oxide layer comprises an oxide selected from the group consisting of an oxide containing In, Zn and Sn, an oxide containing In and Zn, an oxide containing In and Sn, and an oxide containing In.
2. A sensor for detecting a received electromagnetic wave, comprising:
a first electrode;
a second electrode; and
an amorphous oxide layer interposed between the first electrode and the second electrode, wherein the amorphous oxide layer has an electron carrier concentration of less than 10 18 /cm 3 .
3. A sensor for detecting a received electromagnetic wave, comprising:
a first electrode;
a second electrode; and
an amorphous oxide layer interposed between the first electrode and the second electrode, wherein the amorphous oxide layer contains In, Ga, and Zn.
4. A sensor for detecting a received electromagnetic wave, comprising:
a first electrode;
a second electrode; and
an amorphous oxide layer interposed between the first electrode and the second electrode,
wherein the amorphous oxide layer comprises an amorphous oxide whose electron mobility tends to increase with increasing electron carrier concentration.
