Although ZnO nanostructure-based photodetectors feature a well-established system, they still present difficulties when being used in practical situations due to their slow response time. In this study, we report on how forming an amorphous SnO2 (a-SnO2) shell layer on ZnO nanorods (NRs) enhances the photoresponse speed of a ZnO-based UV photodetector (UV PD). Our suggested UV PD, consisting of a ZnO/a-SnO2 NRs core–shell structure, shows a rise time that is 26 times faster than a UV PD with bare ZnO NRs under 365 nm UV irradiation. In addition, the light responsivity of the ZnO/SnO2 NRs PD simultaneously increases by 3.1 times, which can be attributed to the passivation effects of the coated a-SnO2 shell layer. With a wide bandgap (~4.5 eV), the a-SnO2 shell layer can successfully suppress the oxygen-mediated process on the ZnO NRs surface, improving the photoresponse properties. Therefore, with a fast photoresponse speed and a low fabrication temperature, our as-synthesized, a-SnO2-coated ZnO core–shell structure qualifies as a candidate for ZnO-based PDs.
