This paper reports on the both possible applications of molybdenum oxide (MoO x ) thin films in combination with hole or electron conducting CdTe. The high quality ohmic contancts and strongly rectifying photodiodes were prepared by the DC magnetron sputtering of MoO x thin films onto freshly cleaved p‐ and n‐type CdTe single crystal substrates. The analysis of DC and AC electrical properties of the MoO x / p‐CdTe ohmic contact was carried out. The dominating current transport mechanisms through the MoO x /p‐CdTe heterojunction at forward and reverse bias were determined. The unoptimized heterojunction photodiode showed promising rectifying and photoelectrical characteristics for practical application in the photoconductive mode. (© 2016 WILEY‐VCH Verlag GmbH &Co.
