摘要: Heterojunctions composed of β-Ga2O3 and ZnO films are fabricated on sapphire substrates by using the laser molecular beam epitaxy method. The heterojunction possesses excellent rectifying characteristics with an asymmetry ratio over 105. Prominent solar-blind photoresponse effect is also observed in the formed heterojunction. The photodetector exhibits a self-powered behavior with a fast response speed (rise time and decay time are 0.035 s and 0.032 s respectively) at zero bias. The obtained high performance can be related to the built-in field driven photogenerated electron-hole separation.
