Problems solved by technology

However, there are not many studies on photoelectrochemical photodetectors, including photoelectrochemical photodetectors in the infrared and ultraviolet bands, and photoelectrochemical photodetectors in the sun-blind ultraviolet band are even less researched.
[0005] The existing photoelectrochemical photodetector preparation materials are mainly powder materials or nanosheet materials, which have poor crystal quality, slow redox reaction rate, and poor photodetection effect, such as gallium oxide nanomaterials

Abstract

The invention discloses a sun-blind ultraviolet photoelectrochemical photodetector, which includes a photoelectrode, which is characterized in that the photoelectrode includes a substrate, and also includes p-type / n-type doped gallium nitride (Gallium Nitride) grown on the surface of the substrate , referred to as GaN) based nanowires. In addition, by modifying co-catalyst nanoparticles on GaN-based nanowires, the adsorption-desorption process of molecules is optimized, and the redox reaction rate of photoelectrodes in solution is improved. At the same time, further optimize the design of the photoelectrochemical device, change the environment of the electrolyte solution, and finally realize a new solar-blind ultraviolet photoelectrochemical photodetector with high responsivity, high sensitivity, fast response, economy and environmental protection, and self-supply (no need for additional electric energy). The inventive application of gallium nitride-based nanowires in the research of photoelectrochemical photodetectors is of great significance.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of photoelectrochemical photodetectors, in particular to a sun-blind ultraviolet photoelectrochemical photodetector. Background technique [0002] Photodetectors (i.e., light detectors), devices that capture light signals and convert them into electrical signals, are widely used in imaging, communication, sensing, computing, emerging wearable devices, and space domain detection. Optical detectors are widely used in various fields of military and national economy. [0003] Most of today's photodetectors are based on a simple metal-semiconductor-metal (Metal-Semiconductor-Metal, or MSM) structure. MSM structured light detectors need to apply an external bias voltage during operation, which not only consumes power, but also improves the responsivity and response speed. etc. also need to be improved. Compared with photodetectors composed of traditional MSM semiconductor Schottky junctions and p-n / n-n junctions...
