InGaN/GaN core/shell nanowires for visible to ultraviolet range photodetection
Résumé
We report on the fabrication and characterization of single nitride nanowire visible-to-ultraviolet p-n photodetec-tors. Nitride nanowires containing 30 InGaN/GaN radial quantum wells with 18% indium fraction were grown by catalyst-free metal-organic vapour phase epitaxy. Single nanowires were contacted using optical lithography. As expected for a radial p-n junction, the current-voltage (I-V) curves of single wire detectors show a rectifying behavior in the dark and a photocurrent under illumination. The detectors present a response in the visible to UV spectral range starting from 2.8 eV. The peak responsivity is 0.17 A/W at 3.36 eV. The on-off switching time under square light pulses is found to be below 0.1 sec.
