    High-performance and ultra-sensitive ultraviolet photodetector based on surface passivated ?-Fe2O3 thin film
    (Elsevier Ltd, 2023-03-01T00:00:00) Kaawash, Nabeel M.S.; Halge, Devidas I.; Narwade, Vijaykiran N.; Alegaonkar, Prashant S.; Bogle, Kashinath A.
    Nanostructured ?-Fe2O3 is a versatile material and has attracted extensive attention due to its promising electrochemical and photoelectrochemical properties, which are widely investigated in water splitting, photoelectrochemical devices, gas sensors, and catalysis. Moreover, its band gap (Eg = 2.0 eV) allows it to absorb visible light, but due to poor charge carrier mobility, ultrafast recombination of the photo-generated carriers, and surface oxygen vacancy defects its application as a photodetector got restricted. Herein with a surface passivated ?-Fe2O3 film deposited on the glass substrate, the ultraviolet photodetector is demonstrated. The surface passivated photodetector is sensitive to ultraviolet light, showing a substantial enhancement in the photo-responsivity of 1.41 A/W, the external quantum efficiency of 515%, the photo-sensitivity of 1650%, and a reduction in response time of 0.06 ms (for 340 nm at a bias of +30 V) as compared with the device before surface passivation (0.228 A/W, 83%, 34%, and 1.6 ms), respectively. These improved properties are observed due to the suppression of surface defects via surface passivation, which increases free carrier concentration transport across the film. The surface passivated ?-Fe2O3 thin film-based photodetector with high photo-responsivity, photo-sensitivity, high speed, and ultraviolet photoresponse is promising for practical applications, and this platform opens up new avenues for the development of low-cost, and highly efficient ultraviolet photodetectors. � 2023 Elsevier B.V.

    Simple and Productive Method to Develop Highly Sensitive and Fast Infrared Photodetector Using Spray Deposited Nanocrystalline PbS Thin Film
    (Institute of Physics, 2023-02-16T00:00:00) Thabit, Mohammed Y. H.; Kaawash, Nabeel M. S.; Begum, Sumayya; Halge, Devidas I.; Narwade, Vijaykiran N.; Alegaonkar, Prashant S.; Bogle, Kashinath A.
    This work demonstrates the development of a highly sensitive and fast infrared photodetector using a PbS thin film deposited using a simple and scalable method known as "spray pyrolysis". An aqueous precursor solution was deposited on a glass substrate at 150 �C have a cubic phase of PbS. Silver electrodes with a 1 mm gap are drawn on the film to create photo-detector devices. Low resistive contact between the silver electrode and the PbS film is revealed from the linear I-V measurements performed in the dark and under light illumination. Under the illumination of a 100-watt tungsten lamp, the photo-responsivity, sensitivity, response time, and decay time of the PbS film were measured. The Ag/PbS/Ag photodetector device has a responsivity of 70 mA/W, a sensitivity of 200 at 30 V, and the best response and decay times of 6.4 and 15.6 ms, respectively. The photodetector device produced by this simple and low-cost fabrication method has a fast response and decay time. � Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.
