Silicon carbide (SiC), with its wide bandgap and strong resistance to radiation and thermal conditions, is a promising material for ultraviolet (UV) photodetector applications under harsh environments. In this study, porous SiC thin films with thicknesses of 20, 50, and 80 nm were fabricated on 4H-SiC substrates using aerosol deposition (AD), which enables roomtemperature film formation. The device with a 50 nm-thick film exhibited the highest photoresponse under UV-C illumination (260 nm), achieving a maximum photo-to-dark current ratio (PDCR) of 205.2, a responsivity of 0.058 A/W, an external quantum efficiency (EQE) of 27.71%, and a specific detectivity (D*) of 7.9×10¹¹ Jones. These results are attributed to an optimized balance between photon absorption and carrier transport in the porous structure. The findings confirm the potential of ADfabricated porous SiC films for highly sensitive and scalable UV photodetector applications.
