研究目的
To develop a large-format flexible UV image-sensing array based on lateral-bridged ZnO nanowires for focal-plane image sensor applications.
研究成果
The flexible 32 × 32 UV sensor array based on laterally bridged ZnO nanowires demonstrates high uniformity, excellent electrical performance, and mechanical flexibility, making it a promising candidate for flexible UV focal-plane image sensors. The fabrication method is reliable, cost-effective, and compatible with large-area processing.
研究不足
The study does not address the long-term stability of the sensor array under repeated bending or exposure to harsh environmental conditions. Additionally, the process scalability for larger arrays or different substrate materials is not explored.
1:Experimental Design and Method Selection:
The study involved the fabrication of a 32 × 32 UV sensor array on a polyimide substrate using a combination of on-chip manufacture and hydrothermal synthesis techniques.
2:Sample Selection and Data Sources:
A polyimide film was used as the substrate, and ZnO nanowires were grown laterally to bridge metal electrodes.
3:List of Experimental Equipment and Materials:
Equipment included a magnetron sputtering system for ZnO layer deposition, a photolithography setup for patterning, and a hydrothermal synthesis setup for ZnO NW growth. Materials included Zn(NO3)2·6H2O, hexamethylenetetramine (HMTA), and AgNO3 for surface modification.
4:Experimental Procedures and Operational Workflow:
The process involved cleaning the PI substrate, patterning by photolithography, depositing ZnO and Ti/Au layers, performing rapid thermal annealing, and growing ZnO NWs hydrothermally.
5:Data Analysis Methods:
Electrical characteristics were evaluated using a semiconductor parameter analyzer, with performance metrics including photocurrent, responsivity, and detectivity calculated from the data.
