Facile fabrication of self-assembled ZnO nanowire network channels and its gate-controlled UV detection

Abstract We demonstrate a facile way to fabricate an array of gate-controllable UV sensors based on assembled zinc oxide nanowire (ZnO NW) network field-effect transistor (FET). This was realized by combining both molecular surface programmed patterning and selective NW assembly on the polar regions...
