    Reduced graphene oxide-functionalized zinc oxide nanorods as promising nanocomposites for white light emitting diodes and reliable UV photodetection devices
    (Elsevier Science Sa, 2023) Boukhoubza, Issam; Derkaoui, Issam; Basyooni, Mohamed A.; Achehboune, Mohamed; Khenfouch, Mohammed; Belaid, Walid; Enculescu, Monica
    We present a breakthrough in the development of novel nanocomposites based on reduced graphene oxide (RGO)-functionalized zinc oxide (ZnO) nanorods that hold exceptional promise for their use in white light emitting diodes (LEDs) and reliable UV photodetection. The nanorods had a pristine hexagonal wurtzite struc-ture, as confirmed by XRD analysis. SEM images revealed sandwich-like nanocomposites with ZnO nanorods coated in reduced graphene oxide and embedded between two layers of RGO. The study also confirmed the hybridization and interactions between the layers using Raman measurements. The resulting nanocomposites displayed a lower band gap energy than ZnO and exhibited unique photoluminescence spectra with a white PL light. The photodetector based on RGO/ZnO/RGO sandwich structures demonstrated exceptional photoresponse, with higher photocurrent under UV illumination, making it highly promising for a wide range of optoelectronic applications. Overall, this study offers a novel and powerful approach to create nanocomposite structures with enhanced optical characteristics.

    Self-Powered UV Photodetector Utilizing Plasmonic Hot Carriers in 2D ?-MoO3/Ir/Si Schottky Heterojunction Devices
    (Wiley-V C H Verlag Gmbh, 2024) Basyooni, Mohamed A.; Zaki, Shrouk E.; Tihtih, Mohammed; Boukhoubza, Issam; En-nadir, Redouane; Derkaoui, Issam; Attia, Gamal F.
    Self-powered UV sensing has enormous potential in military and civilian applications. However, achieving high responsivity and fast response/recovery time presents significant challenges. Self-powered photodetectors (PDs) have several advantages over traditional PDs, including higher sensitivity, lower power consumption, and simpler design. This study introduces a breakthrough self-powered PD that uses a Schottky junction of 2D alpha-MoO3/iridium (Ir)/Si ultrathin film to detect 365 nm light at 0 V bias through using atomic layer deposition (ALD) and sputtering systems. The PD response is enhanced by plasmonic Ir-induced hot carriers, enabling detection in a mere 0.1 ms. Incorporating a 4 nm Ir layer boosts the responsivity from 0 to 34 A W-1, and the external quantum efficiency is elevated from 0 to 7E11 under 365 nm light illumination. It also has a high I-ON/I-OFF ratio of 11.22E4 at 0 V. These results make the MoO3/4 nm Ir/Si structure an interesting option for self-powered PDs with high efficiency, and the use of a simple ALD system for large-scale fabrication of 2D alpha-MoO3 on hot carrier Ir plasmonic layer. The findings of this research hold tremendous promise in the field of UV sensing and can lead to exciting developments in military and civilian technology.

    Thermionic Emission of Atomic Layer Deposited MoO3/Si UV Photodetectors
    (Mdpi, 2023) Basyooni, Mohamed A.; Gaballah, A. E. H.; Tihtih, Mohammed; Derkaoui, Issam; Zaki, Shrouk E.; Eker, Yasin Ramazan; Ates, Sule
    Ultrathin MoO3 semiconductor nanostructures have garnered significant interest as a promising nanomaterial for transparent nano- and optoelectronics, owing to their exceptional reactivity. Due to the shortage of knowledge about the electronic and optoelectronic properties of MoO3/n-Si via an ALD system of few nanometers, we utilized the preparation of an ultrathin MoO3 film at temperatures of 100, 150, 200, and 250 degrees C. The effect of the depositing temperatures on using bis(tbutylimido)bis(dimethylamino)molybdenum (VI) as a molybdenum source for highly stable UV photodetectors were reported. The ON-OFF and the photodetector dynamic behaviors of these samples under different applied voltages of 0, 0.5, 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 V were collected. This study shows that the ultrasmooth and homogenous films of less than a 0.30 nm roughness deposited at 200 degrees C were used efficiently for high-performance UV photodetector behaviors with a high sheet carrier concentration of 7.6 x 10(10) cm(-2) and external quantum efficiency of 1.72 x 10(11). The electronic parameters were analyzed based on thermionic emission theory, where Cheung and Nord's methods were utilized to determine the photodetector electronic parameters, such as the ideality factor (n), barrier height (f(0)), and series resistance (R-s). The n-factor values were higher in the low voltage region of the I-V diagram, potentially due to series resistance causing a voltage drop across the interfacial thin film and charge accumulation at the interface states between the MoO3 and Si surfaces.
