摘要
We have demonstrated the synthesis of indium (In) nanoparticle (NP) arrays on TiO2 thin film (TF) using glancing angle deposition technique. The deposited In NPs are of the order of 4-10 nm in size. Optical absorption measurements depict 2.5 times enhanced absorption for In-NPs/TiO2-TF compared to TiO2 TF. The plasmonic device shows a turn on voltage at similar to 3.0 and similar to 1.0V under dark and 30 min illumination, respectively. The device current increases from 1.6 to 6.5 mA/cm(2) (+5V) with enhanced temperature for 1-30 min continuous light exposures. The plasmonic device shows eight-fold enlarged photoresponsivity (+2.3V) compared to the TiO2 TF based device. (C) 2013 AIP Publishing LLC.
