Photoelectrochemical UV Detector Based on High-Temperature Resistant ITO Nanowire Network Transparent Conductive Electrodes: Both the Response Range and Responsivity Are Improved.

ABSTRACT: UV transparent conductive electrodes based on transferable ITO nanowire networks were prepared to solve the problem of low UV light utilization in conventional photoelectrochemical UV detectors. The mutually cross-linked ITO nanowire network achieved good electrical conductivity and light transmission, and the novel electrode had a transmission rate of more than 80% throughout the near-UV and visible regions. Compared to Ag nanowire electrodes with similar functionality, the chemical stability of the ITO nanowire transparent conductive electrode ensured that the device worked stably in iodine-based electrolytes. More importantly, ITO electrodes composed of oxides could withstand temperatures above 800 °C, which is extremely critical for photoelectrochemical devices. After the deposition of
