Au Nanoparticles-Decorated Surface Plasmon Enhanced ZnO Nanorods Ultraviolet Photodetector on Flexible Transparent Mica Substrate

An ultraviolet (UV) photodetector based on hydrothermally processed ZnO nanorods (ZnO NRs) decorated by gold nanoparticles (Au NPs) was demonstrated to exhibit extraordinary optoelectronic properties. Due the implementation of Au NPs, the UV responsivity and specific detectivity reached 70 A/W and 3...
