Plasmons Enhancing Sub-Bandgap Photoconductivity in TiO<inf>2</inf> Nanoparticles Film (2024)
Journal Article
Ibrahem, M. A., Verrelli, E., Adawi, A. M., Bouillard, J. S. G., & O’Neill, M. (2024). Plasmons Enhancing Sub-Bandgap Photoconductivity in TiO2 Nanoparticles Film. ACS Omega, 9(9), 10169–10176. https://doi.org/10.1021/acsomega.3c06932

The coupling between sub-bandgap defect states and surface plasmon resonances in Au nanoparticles and its effects on the photoconductivity performance of TiO2 are investigated in both the ultraviolet (UV) and visible spectrum. Incorporating a 2 nm go... Read More about Plasmons Enhancing Sub-Bandgap Photoconductivity in TiO<inf>2</inf> Nanoparticles Film.

Persistent near-infrared photoconductivity of ZnO nanoparticles based on plasmonic hot charge carriers (2022)
Journal Article
Ibrahem, M. A., Verrelli, E., Cheng, F., Adawi, A. M., Bouillard, J. S. G., & O'Neill, M. (2022). Persistent near-infrared photoconductivity of ZnO nanoparticles based on plasmonic hot charge carriers. Journal of applied physics, 131(10), Article 103103. https://doi.org/10.1063/5.0079006

We report on the coupling of ZnO nanoparticles with plasmonic gold nanoislands in a solution-processed photodetector, which results in a clear enhancement in the optical absorption and the electrical responsivity of ZnO nanoparticles, to cover the vi...

Dual wavelength (ultraviolet and green) photodetectors using solution processed zinc oxide nanoparticles (2017)
Journal Article
O'Neill, M., Ibrahem, M. A., Verrelli, E., Lai, K. T., Kyriakou, G., Lee, A. F., Isaacs, M. A., Cheng, F., & O’Neill, M. (2017). Dual wavelength (ultraviolet and green) photodetectors using solution processed zinc oxide nanoparticles. ACS Applied Materials & Interfaces, 9(42), 36971-36979. https://doi.org/10.1021/acsami.7b08092

Narrow-band photoconductivity with a spectral width of 0.16 eV is obtained from solution-processed colloidal ZnO nanocrystals beneath the band-edge at 2.25 eV. A new model involving electron transfer from deep defects to discrete shallow donors is in...
