Abstract:
High quantum efficiency, UV-enhanced monocrystalline zinc sulphide optical sensors for precise radiometric and spectroscopic measurements have been developed by spray deposition of heavy fluorinedoped tin oxide thin films with carrier concentration near 1021 cm-3 onto the surface of zinc sulphide monocrystals as an alternative to the UV-enhanced silicon photodetectors as well as to new detectors based on SiC and GaN. The fabricated sensors have an unbiased internal quantum efficiency that was nearly 100% from 250 to 320 nm, and the typical sensitivity at 290 nm is 0.15 A/W. The sensors were insensitive to solar radiation in earth's conditions and can be used as solar blind photodetectors for precision UV-measurements under direct solar illumination, both terrestrial and space applications.
