description The possibility of creating resonant ultraviolet (UV) sensors based on the structure of ZnO nanorods/La<sub>3</sub>Ga<sub>5</sub>SiO<sub>14</sub> microbalance (LCM) has been investigated. The principle of sensor operation is based on the desorption of oxygen from the surface of ZnO nanorods upon irradiation with UV light and an increase in the concentration of charge carriers that leads to an increase in the capacitance of the structure of ZnO nanorods/LCM. It has been shown that UV radiation intensity affects the resonance oscillation frequency of the LCM sensor. After the end of irradiation, the reverse process of oxygen adsorption on the surface of ZnO nanorods occurs, and the resonance frequency of the sensor oscillations returns to the initial value.
