“…Over the past few decades, numerous studies have emphasized the physiochemical stability and ease of availability of metal oxide semiconductors. − Amid these materials, zinc oxide as a wide band gap (3.3 eV) semiconductor with optical properties similar to GaN and large exciton binding (60 meV) is a great candidate for short-wavelength optoelectronics devices. − Bottom-up engineering of textured nanostructure blade-coated ZnO thin films on low-cost substrates is commonly eye-catching because of the exceptional oxygen physisorption and photodesorption behavior on their surface and light trapping capabilities in UV detection applications. Soci et al reported that ZnO nanorods exhibit high internal photoconductive gain and superior photoresponsivity under UV exposure compared to their bulk counterparts .…”
