Abstract
$\varepsilon $
-phase gallium oxide (
$\varepsilon $
-Ga2O
$_{{3}}$
) semiconductor offers an excellent potential for fabricating surface acoustic wave photodetectors (SAW PDs) to detect deep ultraviolet (deep-UV) light, taking advantage of its combination of an ultra-wide bandgap of
$\sim ~4.9$
eV and a strong piezoelectric property. In this letter, we developed SAW deep-UV PDs in a single-port resonator topology using an
$\varepsilon $
- Ga2O3 thin film grown on sapphire substrates. The device exhibited two resonate frequencies at 1.39 and 2.33 GHz, corresponding to the propagation of Rayleigh and Sezawa waves. The frequency shifts of the Rayleigh mode signal to a 254-nm wavelength UV illumination were investigated and discussed. The
$\varepsilon $
-Ga2O3 SAW PDs in our study, yielding a competitive responsivity of 5.4 ppm
$\cdot (\mu $
W/cm
$^{{2}})^{\text {-1}}$
, were demonstrated to be suitable for deep-UV detection.
