Zusammenfassung:A Schottky ultraviolet photodiode using a (0001) ZnO single crystal grown by the hydrothermal growth method is reported. The photodiode consisted of a semitransparent Pt film for the Schottky electrode and an Al thin film for the Ohmic electrode. The photodiode had polarity dependences on current-voltage characteristics and on responsivity. In the case of the Schottky electrode on the zinc surface, the responsivity was 0.185 A ∕ W at a wavelength of 365 nm . On the other hand, the responsivity was 0.09 A ∕ W for an oxygen surface. The results are attributed to the polarity dependences of surface chemical reactivity and the surface state density on ZnO surfaces.
