Abstract

We have observed ultraviolet photosensitive properties ofSrTiO3 single crystals. The photoresponse signal reaches 7.6 mVunder a bias voltage of 110 V and an on-sample energy of 250 nJ fora 15-ps-duration 355 nm laser pulse. A linear relationship isobtained to the peak signal as a function of bias without anysaturation trend from 1 to 110 V. Ultrafast characteristic as afunction of time was also presented with the rise time as short as750 ps. Furthermore, a weak photoresponse was detected with a largebias of 2.5 kV under a 420-nm-wavelength laser pulse due to bandedge tilting, and drop three orders of magnitude than that under the355 nm laser pulse, indicating the setup consisting of SrTiO3single crystal is suitable for detecting ultraviolet radiation.
