ABSTRACT
The ability of ZnO photodetectors to absorb UV light plays a key role in enhancing responsivity and performance in electronic, optical, and photonic devices. Herein, the light trapping effect of ZnO is used to design and fabricate a novel honeycomb-like ZnO nanomaterial-based UV photodetector with an excellent photoelectric performance. Compared with the traditional ZnO film UV photodetector, the photoresponsivity of the film with honeycomb nanomaterials can reach up to 4.79 A W-1, which is an improvement of about 300 times. In addition, the honeycomb ZnO nanomaterials UV photodetectors exhibit an improved light absorption, a very photo-to-dark current ratio (2.46 × 103), and an excellent detectivity (4.61 × 1012 Jones). The ZnO honeycomb nanostructure synthesized in this work exhibits a strong trapping effect, providing new insights into the research of nanomaterials used for UV photodetectors.
