Positive and Negative Photoconductivity Conversion Induced by H2O Molecule Adsorption in WO3 Nanowire

Abstract Negative photoconductivity effect has been observed in the Au/WO3 nanowire/Au devices in a high humidity environment, which might be attributed to the accumulation of H+ ions on the surface of WO3 nanowire. Under illumination with violet light (445 nm), the photo-excited holes can oxidize t...
