Correlation effects in complex oxide materials should strongly affect the properties of a pn-junction with respect to energy conversion under illumination. As a model system of a photo-active oxide junction, epitaxial thin films of p-type Pr1−xCaxMnO3 (PCMO) were deposited on Nb doped SrTiO3 (Nb-STO) single crystals. Low-resistance ohmic contacts on Nb-STO were obtained for deposited Ti or Al top layers, whereas high work function noble metals reveal non-linear IV characteristics. Since correlation effects, e.g. charge ordering in PCMO, takes place at lower temperatures, the electric characterization with and without illumination via IV curves was performed in a temperature range between 10 K and room temperature. A detailed characterization with respect to crystallographic structure, surface morphology, and interface intermixing was performed by means of TEM, AFM, SIMS and EELS. We found a small Ti-Mn exchange at the PCMO/Nb-STO interface which extends over a few lattice cells. In addition, we will present first results on p-type La1−xSrxMnO3 (LSMO) / Nb-STO based cells.
