摘要

The layered heterostructure of Nitrogen-doped carbon quantum dots (N doped-CQDs) spin-coated onto the hydrothermally grown ZnO nanorods surface (N doped-CQDs/ZnO NRs) was prepared and characterized for their potential application in the UV photodetection. Photoluminescence study exhibits the decreased intensity of near-band-emission (400 nm) of layered N doped-CQDs/ZnO NRs heterostructure due to the energy transfer from N doped-CQDs to surface states of ZnO nanorods and decreased the recombination of charge carriers. N doped-CQDs/ZnO NRs heterostructure showed the improved photocurrent density of 105.7 μA/cm2, higher responsivity (105.3 mA/W) and EQE (35.8%) at 1 V [UV (365 nm) of l mW/cm2] when compared to that (42.2 μA/cm2, 41.98 mA/W and 14.2% at 1 V) of bare ZnO nanorod based device.
