Metric Options: CountsSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Article Description
CdS heterostructure nanomaterials are attractive for their potential applications in integrated optoelectronic devices. Herein, the high-quality CdS/CdS:SnS superlattice nanowires were synthesized through a micro-environmental controlled co-evaporation technique, which shows periodic emission properties and that their structures are periodic and alternating. For the first time, we demonstrate the fabrication of high-performance ultraviolet photodetectors using unique CdS/CdS:SnS superlattice nanowires. The optoelectronic properties of the photodetectors were studied and compared to those devices based on pure CdS nanowires. The as-fabricated photodetectors (under 365 nm) based on CdS/CdS:SnS superlattice nanowires showed a high photocurrent to dark current ratio of 10, a large photoresponsivity of 2.5 × 10 A W, a fast response time of 10 ms and an excellent external quantum efficiency of 8.6 × 10 at room temperature, which shows better performance than pure CdS nanowires photodetectors. The results indicate that CdS/CdS:SnS superlattice nanowires are very promising potential candidates in nanoscale electronic and optoelectronic devices.
