Performance of ultraviolet photoconductive sensor based on aluminium-doped zinc oxide nanorod-nanoflake network thin film using aluminium contacts
In this research, we fabricated UV photoconductive sensor using aluminium (Al)-doped ZnO nanorod-nanoflake network thin film. These nanostructures were deposited on the seed-layercoated glass substrate using sonicated sol-gel immersion method. By using Al contacts, it was found that the performance...

Summary: | In this research, we fabricated UV photoconductive sensor using aluminium (Al)-doped ZnO nanorod-nanoflake network thin film. These nanostructures were deposited on the seed-layercoated glass substrate using sonicated sol-gel immersion method. By using Al contacts, it was found that the performance of the UV photoconductive sensor is very good. The responsivity of the device was 46.4 mA/W with sensitivity of 17.5 under 365-nm UV light (5 mW/cm2) at bias voltage of 10 V. Our study revealed that these nanostructures are very promising material for the UV photoconductive sensor applications. © (2014) Trans Tech Publications, Switzerland. |
