Radial Schottky barriers between carbon nanotube cores and TiO2 shells and surface states at TiO2 shell surface regulate electron transport and also facilitate the separation of photogenerated electrons and holes, leading to ultrahigh photogain (G = 1.4 × 104) and the ultrashort response/recovery times (4.3/10.2 ms). Additionally, radial Schottky junction and defect band absorption broaden the detection range (UV–visible). The concept using metallic core oxide–shell geometry with radial Schottky barriers holds potential to pave a new way to realize nanostructured photodetectors for practical use. |
