High-quality Bi2S3 nanowires are synthesized by chemical vapor deposition and their intrinsic photoresponsive and field-effect characteristics are explored in detail. Among the studied Au-Au, Ag-Ag, and Au-Ag electrode pairs, the device with stepwise band alignment of asymmetric Au-Ag electrodes has the highest mobility. Furthermore, it is shown that light can cause a sevenfold decrease of the on/off ratio. This can be explained by the photoexcited charge carriers that are more beneficial to the increase of I-off than I-on. The photoresponsive properties of the asymmetric Au-Ag electrode devices were also explored, and the results show a photoconductive gain of seven with a rise time of 2.9 s and a decay time of 1.6 s.
