Abstract

Cubic Mg 0.58 Zn 0.42 O thin films with (100) orientation were grown on cubic MgO substrates. The band gap of the alloy films corresponds to solar blind band. In the case that a MgO buffer layer was employed, the surface roughness was decreased from 38 to 1.6 nm under the same growth conditions. A metal−semiconductor−metal photodetector based on this MgZnO film was fabricated, which showed a low dark current of 0.16 pA and lower sub-bandgap photoresponse than the ones with rougher surface in our early reports.
