Three-dimensional radial-junction ZnO nanowire/a-Si:H core–shell infrared photodiodes
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Hydrogenated amorphous silicon (a-Si:H)-based infrared photodiodes were fabricated by coating a-Si:H thin-film p-i-n layers over hydrothermally-synthesized disordered zinc oxide (ZnO) nanowire (NW) networks. Due to enhanced light scattering, the reversed biased three dimensional (3-D) radial-junction NW diodes showed an ∼10× increase in photocurrent under a broad spectrum (800-2000 nm) infrared (IR) illumination compared to planar devices. The diodes were optimized by using InGaZnO (IGZO) transparent top contacts that had 20% higher optical transmission in the IR compared to Al-doped ZnO electrodes. Reverse-bias dark current was minimized by optimizing the area of the NW sidewalls and the a-Si:H shell layer thickness. The former reduces the effects of carrier recombination along the NW core-shell interface and the latter minimizes the tunnelling current across the radial-junction device. An enhancement of ∼100× was achieved for these devices compared to non-optimized diodes.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
