Here we report a new type of self-powered, visible-light photodetector fabricated from thermally reduced rGO–ZnO hybrid nanostructure. The photocurrent generation of the photodetectors under zero-bias enables hybrid rGO–ZnO devices to work like photovoltaic cells, which could power themselves withou...
