Au-Nanoplasmonics-Mediated Surface Plasmon-Enhanced GaN Nanostructured UV Photodetectors.


ABSTRACT: The nanoplasmonic impact of chemically synthesized Au nanoparticles (Au NPs) on the performance of GaN nanostructure-based ultraviolet (UV) photodetectors is analyzed. The devices with uniformly distributed Au NPs on GaN nanostructures (nanoislands and nanoflowers) prominently respond toward UV illumination (325 nm) in both self-powered as well as photoconductive modes of operation and have shown fast and stable time-correlated response with significant enhancement in the performance parameters. A comprehensive analysis of the device design, laser power, and bias-dependent responsivity and response time is presented. The fabricated Au NP/GaN nanoflower-based device yields the highest photoresponsivity of ? 380 mA/W, detectivity of ? 1010 jones, reduced noise equivalent power of ? 5.5 × 10-13 W Hz-1/2, quantum efficiency of ? 145%, and fast response/recovery time of ?40 ms. The report illustrates the mechanism where light interacts with the chemically synthesized nanoparticles guided by the surface plasmon to effectively enhance the device performance. It is observed that the Au NP-stimulated local surface plasmon resonance effect and reduced channel resistance contribute to the augmented performance of the devices. Further, the decoration of low-dimensional Au NPs on GaN nanostructures acts as a detection enhancer with a fast recovery time and paves the way toward the realization of energy-efficient optoelectronic device applications.
