“…In recent years, biological and medical research has shown the very important role of the UV-A (400–320 nm) and UV-B (320–280 nm) bands on the Earth’s biosystem and human health (erythema, eye cataracts, skin cancer, etc.). Thus, it is of great research value to develop wide-bandgap semiconductor photodetectors tailored to the various solar UV bands and blind to the visible and IR emissions [ 89 , 90 ]. Although a variety of semiconductor photodetectors are able to respond to UV photons, it has been recognized that GaN-based photodetectors are excellent candidates for the detection of UV radiation, and moreover, AlGaN-based photodetectors with threshold energies of 3.4 eV (GaN) up to 6.2 eV (AlN) can be fabricated by a proper choice of the Al mole fraction, which provides a good opportunity for deep UV detection [ 91 , 92 , 93 , 94 ].…”
