• Bromo indium phthalocyanine
• AC electrical properties
• Thin film

Sandwich devices of bromo indium phthalocyanine (BrInPc) thin films with aluminium electrodes were deposited on polyborosilicate substrate, using electron beam gun evaporation technique at room temperature. The AC electrical properties of nanostructure thin films (Al/BrInPc/Al) were examined in the temperature range of 303-393 K and frequency (f) between 10(2) and 10(5) Hz. Structural and optical behaviour of samples were investigated by scanning electron microscope (SEM) images, X-ray diffraction (XRD) micrograph and optical absorption. Capacitance increase with increasing temperature for frequencies < 10(3) Hz and is almost independent of temperature for the range of frequencies > 10(3) Hz. Dissipation factor decrease with increasing frequency to a minimum value and increased noticeably thereafter. The AC electrical properties of nanostructured thin films of our materials are in agreement with the model of Goswami and Goswami. The band theory and hopping mechanism are applicable in explaining the conduction process for the frequency range of f < 10(3) Hz and f > 10(3) Hz, respectively.
