In this paper, we studied switchable photovoltaic and photo-diode characteristics of Pt/(Bi_0.9Sm_0.1)(Fe_0.97Hf_0.03)O₃/ LaNiO₃ (Pt/BSFHO/LNO) heterostructures integrated on Si (100). The directions of photocurrent (J_SC) and rectification are found to be reversibly switchable after applying external poling voltages. In pristine state, metal-ferroelectric-metal capacitor Pt/BSFHO/LNO shows J_SC ~ 32 μA/cm² and V_OC ~ 0.04 V, which increase to maximum value of J_SC ~ 303 (-206) μA/cm² and V_OC ~ -0.32 (0.26) V after upward (downward) poling at ±8 V. Finally, we believe that Schottky barrier modulation by polarization flipping at Pt/BSFHO interface could be a main driving force behind switchable photovoltaic and rectifying diode characteristics of Pt/BSFHO/LNO heterostructures.
