A device was realized by interfacing the rectifying junction silicon/poly(vinyl chloride)-poly(dithienopyrrole) composite with a second lithium electrode through a polymer gel. The purpose was to tune the characteristics of the junction by changing the potential delivered to the polymer, Current-voltage plots of the junction were recorded at different voltages applied between the polymer and the lithium electrode; preliminary results indicate a variation of the current-voltage characteristics by changing the polymer potential; in particular, an increase of the reverse saturation current and a decrease of the series resistance by increasing the oxidation level of the polymer were observed.
