ABSTRACT
ZnO is one of the potential semiconductors for photodetector application. However, the responsivity and the time responses are still low and need more improvement. Therefore, the nanohybrid between ZnO and the transition metal decalchogenides (TMDs) is a promosing structure could increase the photodetector performance. In this study, ZnO nanorods structure was fabricated on the interdigitated indium tin oxide (ITO) electrode on glass substrate via ultrasonics spray pyrolysis and hydrothermal method, then MoS2 nanosheets with two different liquid exfoliation times (4 and 8 hours) were deposited on ZnO nanorods by spin-coating method. In this study it has been shown that the variation of exfoliation time of 4 and 8 hours produces MoS2 nanosheets that are almost the same number of layers, namely 3-6 layers. However, MoS2 8H can be deposited much more onto the surface of ZnO nanorods. Generally, this study shows that the addition of MoS2 can improve the performance of the ZnO nanorods photodetector in both the UV region and the visible light. Based on the increase in the value of Responsivity, Detectivity and Sensitivity, the addition of MoS2 8H produces the best nanohybrid MoS2/ZnO structure especially for red light photodetectors (625 nm) due to the highest increase in photocurrent and high electron mobility in MoS28H.

ZnO nanorods adalah salah satu material semikonduktor yang banyak digunakan dalam fotodetektor karena memiliki luas area aktif yang besar, serapan cahaya yang tinggi, dan mudah difabrikasi. Namun demikian, arus gelap yang tinggi menjadi masalah utamanya. Untuk itu, salah satu upaya yang dilakukan adalah dengan membuat heterostructure ZnO dengan material semikonduktor lain. Dalam penelitian ini dibuat fotodetektor zinc oxide (ZnO) dengan jua jenis MoS₂ yaitu MoS₂ few-layer dan MoS₂ many-layer yang akan dideposisi diatas ZnO dengan metode spin coat. Pengujian fotodetektor dilakukan dibawah penyinaran sinar UV (365 nm) dan cahaya tampak (505, 625 nm) pada tegangan 2V. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan adanya peningkatan kinerja dari segi sensitivitas, responsivitas, dan detektivitas setelah penmabahan MoS₂. Peningkatan kinerja ini diakibatkan oleh penurunan arus gelap yang mungkin disebabkan oleh pasivasi permukaan yang dapat menekan jumlah muatan bebas dari defect ZnO.

ZnO nanorod is a semiconductor material that is widely used in photodetector device because it has large active area, high light absorption, and  easy to manufacture. However, the high dark currents were the main problem. For that, one of the efforts made is to make the ZnO heterostructure with other semiconductor materials. In this research, zinc oxide (ZnO) photodetector was made with two types of MoS₂, namely multiple-layer MoS2 and many-layer MoS2 which will be deposited on ZnO with the spin coat method. Photodetector testing was carried out under UV light (365 nm) and visible light (505, 625 nm) at a voltage of 2V. The results showed an increase in performance in terms of sensitivity, responsivity, and detectivity after the deposition of MoS₂. The increase in performance is due to decrease in dark currents which may be due to surface passivation which can reduce the amount of free charge from the ZnO defect.

Molybdenum disulfide (MoS2), yang merupakan bagian dari kelompok material yang disebut dengan transition metal dichalcogenides, menarik banyak perhatian dikarenakan sifat-sifat fisis yang unik yang dimilikinya. Single layer material ini mengalami transisi indirect band gap ke direct band gap, yang karenanya dapat dimanfaatkan untuk berbagai aplikasi optoelektronik. Untuk mempelajari struktur pita (band structure) dari material ini secara detail. pendekatan first-principles seperti density functional theory (DFT) menjadi pilihan populer. Namun, terdapat tantangan yang besar untuk menggunakan pendekatan tersebut untuk menghitung dengan benar efek yang ditimbulkan akibat korelasi kuat antar elektron. Saat ini, telah diperkenalkan sebuah pendekatan yang menggabungkan DFT dengan apa yang disebut dengan GW+BSE untuk menghitung efek interaksi elektron-elektron dan elektron-hole. Dalam tesis ini, kami mempelajari sifat-sifat optik 1H- dan distorted 1T'-MoS2 dengan mengikutsertakan dalam perhitungan interaksi antar elektron dalam kerangka GW dan elektron-hole dengan menyelesaikan persamaan Bethe-Salpeter (BSE). ......Molybdenum disulfide (MoS2), which belongs to transition metal dichalcogenides, has attracted great attention mainly due to their unique physical properties. A single layer of this material undergoes indirect to direct band gap transition, which enables a wide range of optoelectronic applications. To explore the details of the band structure of this material. a first-principles approach such as density functional theory (DFT) has become a popular choice. However, apart from its well-established formulation, it remains a big challenge to use such an approach to capture effects arising from correlations among the electrons correctly. Nowadays, an approach to combine DFT with a so-called GW+BSE to address the effects of electron-electron and electron-hole interactions, has been introduced. In this thesis, we study the optical properties of 1H- and distorted 1T-MoS2 taking into account electron-electron interaction within GW approximation and electron-hole interaction by solving Bethe-Salpeter equation (BSE).

Seng Oksida (ZnO) adalah fotokatalis semikonduktor yang menjanjikan karena harganya yang ekonomis, ramah lingkungan, tidak mudah bereaksi kimia serta stabil. Namun laju rekombinasi muatan yang tinggi membuat aktifitas fotokatalitiknya kurang optimal. Salah satu cara untuk mengurangi rekombinasi muatannya adalah dengan menggabungkan ZnO dengan semikonduktor lain yang memiliki energi band gap lebih rendah, antara lain bahan Transition Metal Di-Chalcogenides (TMDC). Pada penelitian ini, ZnO nanorods (NRs) disintesis dengan metode Ultrasonic Spray Pyrolysis (USP) dan metode hidrotermal diatas substrat kaca kemudian dilanjutkan dengan deposisi MoS2 dan WS2 diatas ZnO nanorod dengan metode spincoating. Untuk mendapatkan nanosheets MoS2 dan WS2, dilakukan eksfoliasi dengan metode Liquid Phase Exfoliation (LPE). Selanjutnya dilakukan karakterisasi morfologi, struktur dan sifat optik menggunakan SEM,TEM,XRD, XPS, Raman spectroscopy, UV-Vis and Photoluminescence Spectroscopy untuk menganalisis pengaruh penambahan MoS2 dan WS2 terhadap aktivitas fotokatalitik ZnO NRs. Kemudian  hibrida ZnO/Mo2 dan ZnO/WS2 digunakan sebagai fotokatalis untuk mendegradasi metil biru dibawah penyinaran cahaya tampak dan sinar UV. Hasil menunjukkan bahwa deposisi MoS2 dan WS2 pada ZnO NRs memperlambat laju degradasi metil biru akibat sifat hidrofobik MoS2 dan WS2 yang menghalangi adsorpsi molekul H2O. Persen degradasi MB oleh fotokatalis ZnO murni, ZnO/MoS2 dan ZnO/WS2 selama 37,5 menit dibawah penyinaran cahaya tampak secara berturut-turut adalah 87,7%, 85,2%, dan 83,6% sedangkan dengan penyinaran ultraviolet adalah 81,0%, 78,2%, dan 77,9%. Degradasi metil biru oleh fotokatalis ZnO/WS2 lebih lambat daripada ZnO/MoS2 disebabkan ZnO/WS2 bersifat lebih hidrofobik seperti terlihat dari sudut kontak air terhadap permukaannya yang lebih tinggi. ......Zinc oxide (ZnO) is a promising semiconductor photocatalyst due to its low cost, enviromentally friendly and chemical innertness and photostability. However, the high rate of charges recombination makes its photocatalytic activity is less optimal. One way to reduce the charges recombination rate is by decorating the ZnO with other semiconductors that have lower bandgap, such as transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDCs). In this study, ZnO nanorods were synthesized via ustrasonic spray pyrolysis and hydrothermal method on the the glass substrate and then followed by deposition of molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) and tungsten disulfide (WS2) on ZnO nanorods by using spincoating method. In order to produce MoS2 and WS2 nanosheets, this materials was firstly exfoliated by liquid phase exfoliation method. The morphology, structural and optical properties characterization by using SEM, TEM, XRD, XPS, Raman spectroscopy, UV-Vis and Photoluminescence Spectroscopy was performed to analyze the influence of MoS2 and WS2 on the photocatalytic activity ZnO NRs. Then the hybrid ZnO/MoS2 and ZnO/WS2 were used as photocatalyst for degradation of methyl blue under visible and UV light. Percentage degradation of MB by pure ZnO, ZnO/MoS2 and ZnO/WS2 photocatalysts for 37.5 minutes under visible light irradiation were 87.7%, 85.2%, and 83.6% respectively while those with ultraviolet radiation were 81,0%, 78.2%, and 77.9%. The degradation of methyl blue by ZnO/WS2 photocatalyst is slower than ZnO/Mo2 because Zn /WS2 is more hydrophobic as seen from the higher contact angle to the water.

Sistem evaporasi fototermal telah menjadi solusi yang menjanjikan dalam mengatasi krisis air bersih dalam beberapa tahun terakhir. Sistem ini menggunakan energi matahari untuk menguapkan air yang tercemar atau air laut, meninggalkan zat-zat berbahaya atau garam dan menghasilkan air bersih yang dapat digunakan kembali. Molibdenum disulfida (MoS2) merupakan salah satu material fototermal yang menarik karena memiliki karakteristik penyerapan sinar yang luas pada daerah cahaya tampak. Hal ini memungkinkan MoS2 untuk mengkonversikan sinar matahari menjadi panas dengan efisiensi yang tinggi. Penting untuk mempelajari morfologi, struktur mikro, dan sifat optik dari MoS2. Annealing adalah proses perlakuan panas yang dilakukan pada material untuk mengubah struktur kristal dan sifat-sifatnya. Dengan mengontrol parameter annealing seperti suhu dan waktu, kita dapat mengubah morfologi partikel MoS2 menjadi bentuk yang diinginkan. Perubahan ini dapat berdampak pada penyerapan sinar matahari dan efisiensi konversi energi fototermal. Disini, kami menganalisis pengaruh perlakuan annealing terhadap morfologi, mikro struktur MoS2. Hasil pengujian kinerja evaporasi fototermal menunjukkan bahwa sampel MoS2-400 memiliki laju evaporasi tertinggi, yaitu sebesar 1,65 kg/m2h. Berdasarkan hasil ini, dapat disimpulkan bahwa perlakuan annealing dapat berpengaruh dan meningkatkan kinerja laju evaporasi fototermal. ......Photothermal evaporation systems have emerged as a promising solution to overcome the clean water crisis in recent years. This system utilizes solar energy to evaporate polluted air or seawater, leaving behind harmful substances or salts and producing clean water that can be reused. Molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) is an interesting photothermal material due to its wide absorption characteristic in the visible light region, allowing it to efficiently convert sunlight into heat. Therefore, it is essential to study the morphology, microstructure, and optical properties of MoS2. Annealing is a heat treatment process performed on a material to alter its crystal structure and properties. By controlling the annealing parameters such as temperature and time, we can change the morphology of the MoS2 particles to the desired shape. These changes can significantly impact the absorption of sunlight and the efficiency of photothermal energy conversion. In this study, we analyze the effect of the annealing treatment on the morphology and microstructure of MoS2. The results of the photothermal evaporation performance test revealed that the MoS2-400 sample exhibited the highest evaporation rate, reaching 1.65 kg/m2 h. Based on these findings, we can infer that the annealing settings can influence and enhance the performance of the photothermal evaporation rate.
