Abstract
An ultraviolet photosensor has been successfully constructed by the in situ lift-out method in a focused ion beam system. The prototype consists of individual naturally self-assembled crossed ZnO nanorods grown by an aqueous solution process. The current–voltage (I–V) characteristics show linear behavior. The photosensor exhibits a response of ∼15 mA/W for UV light (361 nm) under 1 V bias. Response measurements showed that such a photosensor is suitable for low levels of ultraviolet detection. The method is simple, rapid and applicable to research prototypes for further studies of crossed ZnO nanorods for nano-device applications.
