Description
Technical Field
The invention relates to the field of nanotechnology and ultraviolet detection, in particular to a high-speed and high-sensitivity ZnO nanowire array radio-frequency ultraviolet detector.
Background
The ultraviolet detector has important application in the fields of astronomical observation, military early warning, information communication, aerospace exploration, disaster remote sensing and the like. Because a large amount of gas molecules and dust with strong ultraviolet absorption and scattering capacity exist in the natural environment, the purple to be detectedThe intensity of the external light reaching the detector is often very weak, which puts higher demands on the sensitivity and response speed of the ultraviolet detector. ZnO as a third generation wide band gap semiconductor material has higher band gap (3.37ev) and larger exciton confinement energy (60 mv at room temperature), and the nano structure of the ZnO can be approximately a defect-free crystal, so the ZnO is an excellent material as an ultraviolet detector. The traditional direct current ultraviolet detector made of ZnO nano materials mainly comprises a photoconductive type, a P-N junction type and a Schottky type. The photoconductive ultraviolet detector is widely applied, and the transverse bridging ZnO nanowire ultraviolet detector is a device with better performance, but the dark current is slowly recovered due to the slow oxygen adsorption process during working, the reduction time is longer, and the device is not suitable for repeated detection in a short time; the P-N junction type ZnO film ultraviolet detector has lower working bias voltage and lower power consumption, but the high-quality P type ZnO film is difficult to prepare, so that the performance of the P type ZnO film is unstable, and the production of devices is greatly limited; the Schottky ultraviolet detector based on the ZnO nanostructure has high response speed and low noise, but a Schottky barrier formed by ZnO and metal has larger surface leakage, so that the dark current is too large, and the optical gain is reduced. Compared with an ultraviolet detector working under a direct current condition, in a radio frequency system, frequency drift caused by capacitance change of the ZnO nanowire becomes a new sensing degree of freedom to carry out sensing measurement. ZnO has abundant nano structures, and the realization of the nano-wire array enables the whole capacitance span of the detector to be increased, so that the detection range of the nano-wire array is enlarged, and a new way is provided for realizing a high-speed and high-sensitivity ultraviolet detector. At present, the radio frequency ultraviolet detection is only a radio frequency ultraviolet detector designed by AlGaN base, and the detector is prepared by epitaxially growing an AlGaN base film on a sapphire substrate and photoetching an Al interdigital electrode on the AlGaN base film. Under the ultraviolet irradiation, the impedance of the radio frequency ultraviolet detector is changed due to the increase of photo-generated carriers, so that the resonance frequency is changed, and the detection sensitivity of the ultraviolet is 40 KHz/(mu w/cm)2). However, the AlGaN thin film has high production cost, complex process, expensive equipment and lack of suitable epitaxial growth materials, so that the AlGaN-based radio frequency ultraviolet detector is difficult to be widely applied.
Disclosure of Invention
In view of this, the present invention provides a high-speed and high-sensitivity ZnO nanowire array rf ultraviolet detector, which utilizes the high sensitivity of rf signals to capacitance variation. In the air circumstance, when there is no ultraviolet irradiation, the surface depletion layer is formed on the surface of the ZnO nanowire, when the ultraviolet irradiation is carried out, the energy generated by the absorption of photon energy by the surface depletion layer of the ZnO nanowire is generated, so that the surface depletion layer is thinned, and the change of the surface depletion layer of the ZnO nanowire can change the capacitance in the ZnO nanowire array. The capacitance change will cause the change of the radio frequency resonance frequency of the nano-wire, and ultraviolet light is detected by detecting the change of the resonance frequency.
The invention provides a high-speed high-sensitivity ZnO nanowire array radio frequency ultraviolet detector, wherein a composite metal electrode layer is arranged on a ZnO seed layer in a staggered mode, meanwhile, part of the seed layer is exposed on the side to form a step-shaped structure, and a ZnO nanowire array grows obliquely upwards on the side face of the exposed seed layer;
the seed layer is in a long and thin strip shape, the length-width ratio of the seed layer to the seed layer in the upper surface and the lower surface is 20: 1-40: 1, the width of the seed layer is not more than 10 micrometers, and the corresponding thickness of the side surface is 50-400 nanometers;
the composite metal electrode includes: the titanium electrode layer is arranged on the seed layer, and the gold electrode layer is arranged on the titanium electrode layer;
the width of the step of the ZnO seed layer exposed outside the metal electrode is 3-7 microns.
The thickness of the titanium electrode layer is 15-40 nanometers, and the thickness of the gold electrode layer is 50-1000 nanometers.
The ZnO nanowire has a diameter of 50-500 nanometers and a length of 3-12 micrometers;
the ZnO nanowire array is uniform in size, and the length and the diameter of the ZnO nanowire array can be regulated and controlled as required.
According to the ultraviolet detection principle provided by the invention, the high-speed and high-sensitivity ZnO nanowire array radio-frequency ultraviolet sensor provided by the invention is based on the high sensitivity of radio-frequency signals to the capacitance change of ZnO nanowires; in the air circumstance, when there is no ultraviolet irradiation, the surface depletion layer is formed on the surface of the ZnO nanowire, when the ultraviolet irradiation is carried out, the energy generated by the absorption of photon energy by the surface depletion layer of the ZnO nanowire is generated, so that the surface depletion layer is thinned, and the change of the surface depletion layer of the ZnO nanowire can change the capacitance in the ZnO nanowire array. The capacitance change will cause the change of the radio frequency resonance frequency of the nano-wire, and ultraviolet light is detected by detecting the change of the resonance frequency.
The high-speed and high-sensitivity ZnO nanowire array radio-frequency ultraviolet sensor solves the problem that dark current is slow to recover under the direct current work of a common ZnO nanowire ultraviolet detector, and improves the response speed of a device. The high-speed and high-sensitivity ZnO nanowire array radio-frequency ultraviolet sensor provided by the invention is very sensitive to resonance frequency change caused by capacitance change and can be used for ultra-low light intensity ultraviolet light (5 mu w/cm)2~10μw/cm2) High-speed and high-sensitivity detection is carried out.
