Abstract EN

Indium-zinc oxide (IZO) nanofiber matrices are synthesized on SiO2-covered silicon substrates by the electrospinning method.

The nanofibers’ dimensions, morphology, and crystalline structure are characterized by scanning electron microscopy, atomic force microscopy, and X-ray diffraction.

The results of studying the electrical properties of nanofibers, as well as their sensitivity to UV radiation depending on the In-to-Zn concentration ratio, are presented.

It is shown that the highest sensitivity to UV is observed at the indium content of about 50 atomic %.

The photocurrent increment with respect to the dark current is more than 4 orders of magnitude.

The response and recovery times are 60 and 500 sec, respectively.

The results obtained suggest that IZO nanofibers can find application as UV sensors with improved characteristics.
