Abstract

An ultraviolet (UV)-visible tunable photodetector based on ZnO nanorod arrays (NAs)/perovskite heterojunction solar cell structures is presented, in which the ZnO NAs are prepared using the hydrothermal method and annealed in different atmospheres. Based on solar cell structure perovskite photodetectors, it exhibited highly repeatable and stable photoelectric response characteristics. In addition, the devices with ZnO NAs annealed in a vacuum showed a high responsivity of about 1014 cm Hz1/2 W−1 in the visible region, whereas the devices with ZnO NAs annealed in air exhibited good detectivity in the UV region, especially at around 350 nm. Furthermore, when the annealing atmosphere of the ZnO nanorods was changed from vacuum to air, the dominant detection region of the photodetectors was altered from the visible to the ultraviolet region. These results enable potential applications of the ZnO NAs/perovskite photodetectors in ultraviolet and visible regions.
