摘要
A significant visible light response of unintentionally doped ZnO nanowire (NW) field effect transistors (FETs) has been observed in a reversible manner (for illumination source on and off). In particular, under white light illumination (wavelength longer than 400 nm), the threshold voltage (V-T) of the ZnO NW FET shifts greatly to the negative direction, suggesting a remarkable increase in carrier concentration. A photon-assisted oxygen molecule desorption mechanism is proposed to explain the observed sub-bandgap photoresponse on the basis of the behavior of the experimental devices in different gas atmospheres (air, vacuum, pure N-2, and pure O-2) and with/without nanowire surface modifications (coated with PMMA).
