We have fabricated an organic deep ultraviolet photodetector (PD) using PEDOT:PSS (PH 1000) as a transparent anode. NPB and PBD were employed as electron donor and acceptor, respectively. The PD exhibits a dark current of 0.0829 μA/cm(2) and a photocurrent of 85.3 μA/cm(2) at -12 V under 280 nm light illumination with an intensity of 0.488 mW/cm(2). A high response at 248-370 nm with its peak of 0.18 A/W at 280 nm and a detectivity of 1.1×10(12) cm Hz(1/2) W(-1) were achieved. The more detailed mechanism of harvesting high performance and the dependence of photocurrent density on illumination intensity are also discussed.
An ultraviolet photodetector was fabricated based on Mg0.07Zn0.93O heterojunction. N, N'-bis (naphthalen-1-y1)-N, N'-bis(pheny) benzidine was selected as the hole transporting layer. I-V characteristic curves of the device were measured in the dark and under the illumination of 340 nm UV light with density of 1.33 mW/cm2. The device showed a low dark current of about 3×10(-10) A and a high photo-dark current ratio of 1×10(5) at -2 V bias. A narrowband photoresponse was observed from 300 to 400 nm and centered at 340 nm with a full width at half-maximum of only 30 nm. The maximum peak response is at 340 nm, which is 0.192 A/W at the bias of -1 V.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
