Abstract

Photovoltaic response from normal ferroelectric materials generates large voltages but low current due to poor absorption of visible light. Noguchi et al. dope ferrous and ferric ion couple into barium titanate crystals to enhance the photogeneration at photon energies both below and above bandgap.
