The objective of the present study focused on the fabrication of NiO/CuO/CdO:ZnO multilayer structures for UV photodiode using RF magnetron sputtering method. In the present study, CuO, a p-type thin layer, acts as a hole transporting layer. Results showed very high responsivity for NiO/CuO/CdO:ZnO detector compared to that of NiO/CdO:ZnO. Time-depended operation of the NiO/CuO/CdO:ZnO showed a fast UV response. The obtained results show that the fabricated photodiodes have the potential to replace the commercially available UV photodiodes.
