Enhanced photosensitivity of electro-oxidized epitaxial graphene
Résumé
We report the enhanced photosensitivity of epitaxial graphene (EG) after electrochemical oxidation in nitric acid. The onset of photoconductivity appears at a photon energy of ~1.7 eV while the responsivity reaches 2.5 A/W at a wavelength of 470 nm (blue light, energy 2.64 eV) and further increases to 200 A/W in the UV spectral range (3.5 eV, 350 nm). The observed photoresponse is attributed to the formation of deep traps at the electro-oxidized EG interface, which release charge carriers under illumination and prolong the life time of the photocarriers. Potential applications of electro-oxidized EG in ultraviolet photodetection are discussed
