The flexible ultraviolet (UV) photodetector (PD) has stable performance under mechanical flexibility to be applied on uneven surfaces. This provides a lot of freedom for redesigning photoelectric applications, so people highly regard it. We have studied the UV PD of Mg
0.2 Zn0.8 O (MZO) film by radio frequency magnetron sputtering on flexible polyethylene terephthalate substrates to improve the photoelectric performance. Through the photoelectric performance analysis and comparison of the three PDs of MZO, ZnO1h/MZO, and ZnO2h/MZO, we found that the performance of PD containing ZnO film has been dramatically improved. Under 8 V bias, their responsivity was enhanced by 51 and 210 times, and the detectivity was enhanced by 2 orders of magnitude. Under 24 V bias, their responsivity is improved by 308 times and 1130 times, and external quantum efficiency is more than 1000%. Our findings provide a simple and easy way to achieve high-performance flexible MZO UV PD. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]- Published
