Summary: A highly transparent film with ideal UV/HEB shielding was designed by adding UV absorbers and transparent yellow pigments to improve the UV/HEB shielding performance of PVC. It was demonstrated that UV326 UV absorber and 0.5 phr transparent yellow pigment could achieve more than 99% shielding effect in both UV and HEB regions, making the composite film suitable for various applications.

Summary: NiO/ZnO thin film heterojunction diodes were constructed using dc magnetron sputtering technique and their performance for ultraviolet sensor applications was evaluated. The device configuration, ITO/ZnO/NiO/Ag, showed excellent current-voltage rectifying characteristics at room temperature. The photodetector characteristics of the fabricated ITO/ZnO/NiO thin film stack were evaluated after rapid thermal annealing treatment. The diodes were tested under 365 nm UV light illumination and showed a fast response speed and stable photo detectivity in self-powered mode.

Summary: The study investigates the photodetection performance of thin amorphous Ga2O3 nanosheet, which has been widely used as dielectric and passivation materials. By peeling off from the Ga solid-melt surface, the amorphous Ga2O3 nanosheet is confirmed to have an amorphous characteristic through selected area electron diffraction and X-ray diffraction. However, due to limited absorption ability and abundant defect states, the amorphous Ga2O3 nanosheet shows low photocurrent and slow response time even at a bias voltage. To enhance the photodetection performance, PbI2 nanosheet is grown on the surface of the amorphous Ga2O3 nanosheet, forming a Ga2O3/PbI2 heterojunction photodetector. The heterojunction photodetector exhibits larger photocurrent (1.6 nA) and faster response times (2 ms rise time and 3 ms decay time) even at a zero bias voltage, and it also shows excellent self-powered photoresponse characteristic and mechanical flexibility when configured into a flexible photodetector. This work provides a pathway for the development of high-performance flexible optoelectronic devices.

Summary: A novel polymer microsphere with both UV-shielding and blue-light-emitting characteristics was fabricated by grafting VBL onto PMAS microspheres. The PMAS-VBL microspheres were then incorporated into PVA to prepare composite films. The PVA films showed excellent UV-shielding and fluorescent properties, mainly derived from the UV-to-blue light converting ability of VBL.

Summary: To achieve ultrafast response in MgZnO based self-powered Schottky type photodetectors, it is essential to decrease the junction capacitance and carrier transit time. In this study, Au/MgZnO/ITO Schottky junction photodetectors were fabricated in a crossbar pattern, resulting in a low junction capacitance of 27 pF and very fast visible blind self-powered ultraviolet (UV) photoresponse with rise and fall times of approximately 1.5 μs. These photodetectors also exhibited a peak responsivity of 49 mA/W at a wavelength of 280 nm and could potentially be applied in UV communication and imaging applications.
