The authors regret that their paper, ‘Characterization and dielectric properties of vacuum-deposited zinc phthalocyanine thin film’ (Kaur M, Kumar R, Dogra R, Arora N and Sharma N (2018), Surface Innovations 6(1–2): 63–70, https://doi.org/10.1680/jsuin.17.00042), contains errors in the data of Figures 7, 8, 9 and 10 and Table 4. The corrected Figures and Table are provided below.
Variation in capacitance with frequency of ZnPc films at bias voltage
Variation in dielectric constant with frequency of ZnPc films at bias voltage
Variation of ΔB at different frequency range for ZnPc films at bias voltage
Variation in AC conductivity with frequency of ZnPc films at bias voltage
AC electrical parameters for ZnPc films
| Applied bias voltage: V | ΔB maxima: Hz | Relaxation time: s | Mobility: m2/(V s) |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | 15 348 | 6·5 × 10−5 | 4·38 × 10−9 |
| 3 | 14 015 | 7·1 × 10−5 | 1·33 × 10−9 |
| 5 | 13 660 | 7·3 × 10−5 | 7·81 × 10−10 |
| Applied bias voltage: V | ΔB maxima: Hz | Relaxation time: s | Mobility: m2/(V s) |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | 15 348 | 6·5 × 10−5 | 4·38 × 10−9 |
| 3 | 14 015 | 7·1 × 10−5 | 1·33 × 10−9 |
| 5 | 13 660 | 7·3 × 10−5 | 7·81 × 10−10 |
The following line of the Conclusion (p. 69) is also amended as follows
The hole mobility and relaxation time have been determined and found to lie in the range 7·81 × 10−10 – 4·38 × 10−9 m2/(V s) and 7·32 × 10−5 – 6·52 × 10−5 s, respectively.
