Area of Science:

  • Materials Science
  • Nanotechnology
  • Semiconductor Physics

Background:

  • Multicomponent nanowires (NWs) offer tunable band gaps for optoelectronics.
  • Pseudobinary alloys are crucial for advanced device applications.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To synthesize (GaP)(1-x)(ZnS)(x) alloy NWs.
  • To investigate the relationship between composition, phase, band gap, and optoelectronic properties.
  • To explore their potential for photodetector applications.

Main Methods:

  • Vapor transport method for NW synthesis.
  • Compositional tuning (0 ≤ x ≤ 1).
  • Phase analysis (zinc blende and wurtzite).
  • Photoluminescence spectroscopy.
  • Photocurrent measurements.

Main Results:

  • Observed phase evolution from zinc blende (ZB) to wurtzite (WZ) with increasing x.
  • Identified phase coexistence and core-shell structures in intermediate compositions.
  • Demonstrated nonlinear band gap tuning (2.4–3.7 eV) with significant bowing.
  • Reported enhanced photoluminescence and power-dependent blue-shift.
  • Proposed a type-II heterojunction band structure for WZ phase NWs.
  • Achieved higher photocurrent and stability in GaP-incorporated ZnS NWs.

Conclusions:

  • Compositional control enables phase engineering in (GaP)(1-x)(ZnS)(x) NWs.
  • Tunable band gaps and enhanced optoelectronic properties are achieved.
  • These NWs show promise for high-performance photodetector applications.
