Metal-BiFeO3-metal thin film structures can be switched between a high resistance state (HRS) and a low resistance state (LRS), when a positive and negative writing bias is applied, respectively. The current investigation deals with the effect of light-irradiation on the capacitance of BiFeO3-coated metal-insulator-semiconductor (MIS) diodes. N-type conducting BiFeO3 thin films of nominal thickness 70, 140, 210, 280, 350 and 490 nm have been grown by pulsed laser deposition on p-type silicon wafers substrates having an 163 nm thick SiN layer. The DC bias for the capacitance measurements was swept from +10 V to -15 V and back under different light-irradiation at a sweep rate of ca. 59 mV/s. It has been found that under dark conditions two nonvolatile capacitance minima can be found at -3.8 V and at -6.8 V possibly when the BiFeO3 is in the HRS and LRS state, respectively. The retention measurement result shows non-volatile memory in capacitance which can be used for photocapacitive detectors.
