Statistical model of charge transport in colloidal quantum dot array

Renat T. Sibatov

Published 2010-02-08, updated 2010-08-24Version 2

A new statistical model of charge transport in colloidal quantum dot arrays is proposed. It takes into account Coulomb blockade forbidding multiple occupancy of nanocrystals and influence of energetic disorder of interdot space. The model explains power law current transients and the presence of memory effect. The fractional differential analogue of the Ohm law is found phenomenologically for nanocrystal arrays. The model combines ideas that were considered as conflicting by other authors: the Scher-Montroll idea about power law distribution of waiting times in localized states for disordered semiconductors is applied with taking into account Coulomb blockade, Novikov's condition about asymptotical power law distribution of time intervals between successful current pulses in conduction channels is fulfilled, carrier injection blocking predicted by Ginger and Greenham takes place.
