Herein, we report a sol-gel spin method for fabrication of Al/p-Si/C3N4/Au Schottky diode. The current-voltage (I-V) characteristics of the Schottky diode was investigated under dark and various light intensities. It was observed that the photocurrent of the Schottky diode increases with increase in light intensity. The transient photocurrent, capacitance, and conductance measurements were investigated. It was observed that the photocurrent, capacitance, and conductance highly depend on transient light. The photocurrent, capacitance, and conductance increases after illuminating the Schottky diode and returns to original value after turning off the illumination. The linear response of the photocurrent with light intensity suggests that carbon nitride based Schottky diode could be used as photosensor.  ISSN : 0167-577X  Journal Name : MATERIALS LETTERS  Volume : 134  Issue Number : 1  Publishing Year : 1435 AH 2014 AD  Article Type : Article  Added Date : Thursday, July 27, 2017  Researchers Researcher Name (Arabic) Researcher Name (English) Researcher Type Dr Grade Email R.K Gupta, Gupta,, R.K Investigator Doctorate ramguptamsu@gmail.com A.A Al-Ghamdi, Al-Ghamdi, A.A Researcher Doctorate   F El-Tantawy El-Tantawy, F Researcher Doctorate   W.
