“…6 Because of the large surface-to-volume ratio and quantum confinement effect, which can modify the band gap, density of states, adsorption effect and also can shorten the transit time of the charge carrier and prolong the photocarrier lifetime, 1D nanostructures show huge advantage over the corresponding bulk counterpart and thin film. 7 Usually, the photodetectors based on 1D semiconductor micro/nano-structures show high sensitivity, large photocurrent gain and fast response speed. 4,8 Up to date, various 1D inorganic materials, such as ZnO, GaN, InAsSb, ZnS, Zn x Cd 1−x Se, ZnTe, CdS, In 2 Te 3 , InSe, have been used to fabrication photodetectors.…”
