“…We estimated the time constants of rise stage are t 1 ¼ 6.27 s and t 2 ¼ 37.1 s, and their relative weight factors are 85 and 15%, respectively, which give an average rise time constant of t r ¼ 11.02 s; the estimated time constants of the decay stage are t 1 ¼ 0.28 s and t 2 ¼ 6.85 s, with relative weight of 67 and 33%, respectively, producing an average decay time constant t d of 2.43 s. It was found that the rise process of NW array PD (1.38 s) is much faster than that of single NW PD (11.02 s), while the resetting process of ZnO NW array PD (4.05 s) is also comparable with that of single NW device (2.43 s). [6,9,11,14,16,19,20,22,25,27,[33][34][35][36][37][38][39][40][41][42] Compared to low temperature synthesized ZnO nanorods reported in reference, [35,36] ZnO NW arrays grown by CVD at high temperature have better crystal quality, which contributes to the high performance of our devices. Table 1 compares the photoresponse of different ZnO NW-based UV PDs as reported previously.…”
