Abstract ZnCo2O4/Si heterostructures have been fabricated by a pulsed laser deposition method, and their transport behaviors and photovoltaic properties have been characterized. It is found that the ZnCo2O4/Si heterostructures shows a good rectifying behavior at five temperatures ranging from 50 K to 290 K. The measurements of photovoltaic response reveal that a photovoltage of 33mV was generated when the heterostructures were illuminated by using a 532 nm laser at 250mW/cm2 intensity and mechanically chopped at 2500 Hz. Both their photocurrents and photovoltages clearly increase with the increase of the laser intensity at room temperature. But, the photovoltage peaks of the heterostructures decrease with the increase of temperatures. It is believed that this work would open new perspectives for ZnCo2O4/Si-heterostructure-based devices.
