Abstract

We reveal the development of ZnO nanorods (NRs) onto seedling layers via utilizing chemical bath deposition (CBD) technique. In this paper, the influences of six various annealing times on characteristics of the ZnO NRs were explored and reported. The sample's nano-morphological, structural as well as optical characteristics were investigated via utilizing field emission scanning electron microscopy, XRD diffraction system, photoluminescence (PL), as well as a UV–Vis spectrophotometer. The best sample of ZnO NRs positioning and connecting metal semiconductor metal photodetector was created. The UV-device had a sensitivity of 334% with a low dark current after exposed to wavelength of 390 nm UV-light (0.57 mW/cm2) under −5 V applied voltage. Furthermore, photo-response peak was 2.19 A/W and the response times as well as recovery time were 0.49, 1.14 s, respectively. This novel technique offers an inexpensive substrate and simple process for controlling the synthesis of the nanorods, as well as demonstrating the feasibility of building nano-scale UV detectors for nano-optics application fields.
