Original abstract
This study is a numerical investigation of a ZnO/NPB hybrid photodetector using the SCAPS-1D simulation. The effect of light intensity and working temperature on the structural performance were systematically studied. The corresponding current density vs voltage (J-V) characteristics at different illumination levels exhibited significant enhancement in photocurrent generation with increasing light intensity, indicating efficient photon absorption and charge-carrier collection. Furthermore, the effect of temperature was studied in the range of 300-400 K by the calculation of J-V characteristics, energy-band structure, responsivity, detectivity, quantum efficiency and key performance parameters. The results demonstrated that the high temperature slightly decreased the short-circuit current density, fill factor, responsivity, detectivity, and conversion efficiency due to increased carrier recombination and thermal losses. The energy-band analysis revealed the temperature-dependent changes of carrier transport and band alignment and the quantum efficiency showed a little decrease at high temperatures. Yet, the designed photodetector still showed stable operation and satisfactory detection performance in the explored conditions.
