Preparation of hexagonal nanoporous Al2O3/TiO2/TiN as a novel photodetector with high efficiency
Abstract The unique optical properties of metal nitrides enhance many photoelectrical applications. In this work, a novel photodetector based on TiO2/TiN nanotubes was deposited on a porous aluminum oxide template (PAOT) for light power intensity and wavelength detection. The PAOT was fabricated by...
