Abstract
Spectral and kinetic dependences of the decrease in the surface potential (SP) of ZnO under illumination and processes of SP relaxation in the dark have been studied. A significant contribution to the decrease of SP in the less-than-bandgap light absorption region is shown to be due to the photodissociation of specific surface bonds with the formation of localized Zn +s and O −s .
Abstract
Изучены спектральные и кинетические зависимости поверхностного потенциала (ПП) ZnO при освещении и процессы релаксации ПП в темноте. Показано, что существенный вклад в процесс снижения ПП в области несобственного поглощения обусловлен фоторазрывом специфических поверхностных связей с образованием локализованных Zn +s и O −s .
