摘要

The present novel interface approach for developing high-performance Cu/Pr7O12/n-Si MIS photodiodes using Jet Nebulizer Spray Pyrolysis (JNSP) is aimed at optoelectronic biosensing applications. By modulating the Pr7O12 precursor concentration, we achieved controlled film morphology, band structure, and interface quality. Structural analysis confirmed the formation of rhombohedral Pr7O12 with enhanced crystallinity, while morphological evolution from granular to lamellar features promoted efficient charge transport. Optical studies revealed tunable band gaps ranging from 3.90 to 3.37 eV, enabling spectral sensitivity for targeted bio-optoelectronic integration. Electrical characterization revealed strong rectifying behaviour and elevated Schottky barrier heights (0.72–0.76 eV), indicating improved interface states. The optimized 0.20 M device exhibited an outstanding photosensitivity of 220.72%, highlighting its capability for sensitive light-assisted biosignal detection. This work highlights the potential of JNSP-fabricated Pr7O12 films as scalable, high-performance photodiode and optoelectronic platforms for future electronic systems that require precise light–biomolecule interactions and detection.
