Abstract

Abstract : Self‐Powered Photodetector A strategy to enhance the photothermal conversion of UV light by LSPR of silver nanoparticles (Ag NPs) is proposed by Jianping Meng, Zhou Li, and co‐workers in article number 2200327 . After decorating Ag NPs, the photodetector based on the Schottky junction of Ag and ZnO nanowires (NWs) can detect the UV light with low power density. The enhanced performance is attributed to the high‐quality factor of Ag NPs in UV wavelength range, which can raise temperature variation of ZnO NWs noticeably when turning on/off light.
