Single-Crystalline InGaAs Nanowires for Room-Temperature High-Performance Near-Infrared Photodetectors.

ABSTRACT: InGaAs is an important bandgap-variable ternary semiconductor which has wide applications in electronics and optoelectronics. In this work, single-crystal InGaAs nanowires were synthesized by a chemical vapor deposition method. Photoluminescence measurements indicate the InGaAs nanowires have strong light emission in near-infrared region. For the first time, photodetector based on as-grown InGaAs nanowires was also constructed. It shows good light response over a broad spectral range in infrared region with responsivity of 6.5 × 10³ A W^-1 and external quantum efficiency of 5.04 × 10⁵ %. This photodetector may have potential applications in integrated optoelectronic devices and systems.

Room-Temperature High-Detectivity Flexible Near-Infrared Photodetectors with Chalcogenide Silver Telluride Nanoparticles.

Project description:Herein, flexible near-infrared (NIR) photodetectors were prepared using silver telluride (Ag5Te3) nanoparticles (NPs) for optoelectronic applications. For the main channel materials of the photodetectors, Ag5Te3 NPs were used, which were synthesized in an aqueous solution. Moreover, Ag5Te3 thin films were successfully fabricated on plastic substrates at 150 °C using redistributed Ag5Te3 NPs in aqueous inks. The crystal structure, chemistry, and optoelectronic properties of the synthesized photodetectors were studied. The fabricated flexible Ag5Te3-based photodetectors achieved a detectivity of 6.27 × 109 cm Hz1/2 W-1 (>109) at room temperature under ∼0.35% compressive and tensile strains. The obtained detectivity value exceeds those of two-dimensional inorganic layered material phototransistors-such as MoS2-or commercial thermistor bolometers at room temperature (∼109). Furthermore, the proposed novel method for the synthesis of Ag5Te3 thin films on plastic substrates can be applied to other Ag5Te3-based applications in the future.

Guided CdTe Nanowires Integrated into Fast Near-Infrared Photodetectors.

Project description:Infrared photodetectors are essential devices for telecommunication and night vision technologies. Two frequently used materials groups for this technology are III-V and II-VI semiconductors, notably, mercury-cadmium-telluride alloys (MCT). However, growing them usually requires expensive substrates that can only be provided on small scales, and their large-scale production as crystalline nanostructures is challenging. In this paper, we present a two-stage process for creating aligned MCT nanowires (NWs). First, we report the growth of planar CdTe nanowires with controlled orientations on flat and faceted sapphire substrates via the vapor-liquid-solid (VLS) mechanism. We utilize this guided growth approach to parallelly integrate the NWs into fast near-infrared photodetectors with characteristic rise and fall times of ∼100 μs at room temperature. An epitaxial effect of the planar growth and the unique structure of the NWs, including size and composition, are suggested to explain the high performance of the devices. In the second stage, we show that cation exchange with mercury can be applied, resulting in a band gap narrowing of up to 55 meV, corresponding to an exchange of 2% Cd with Hg. This work opens new opportunities for creating small, fast, and sensitive infrared detectors with an engineered band gap operating at room temperature.

Project description:Recently, III-V semiconductor nanowires have been widely explored as promising candidates for high-performance photodetectors due to their one-dimensional morphology, direct and tunable bandgap, as well as unique optical and electrical properties. Here, the recent development of III-V semiconductor-based single nanowire photodetectors for infrared photodetection is reviewed and compared, including material synthesis, representative types (under different operation principles and novel concepts), and device performance, as well as their challenges and future perspectives.

Room temperature high-detectivity mid-infrared photodetectors based on black arsenic phosphorus.

Project description:The mid-infrared (MIR) spectral range, pertaining to important applications, such as molecular "fingerprint" imaging, remote sensing, free space telecommunication, and optical radar, is of particular scientific interest and technological importance. However, state-of-the-art materials for MIR detection are limited by intrinsic noise and inconvenient fabrication processes, resulting in high-cost photodetectors requiring cryogenic operation. We report black arsenic phosphorus-based long-wavelength IR photodetectors, with room temperature operation up to 8.2 μm, entering the second MIR atmospheric transmission window. Combined with a van der Waals heterojunction, room temperature-specific detectivity higher than 4.9 × 109 Jones was obtained in the 3- to 5-μm range. The photodetector works in a zero-bias photovoltaic mode, enabling fast photoresponse and low dark noise. Our van der Waals heterojunction photodetectors not only exemplify black arsenic phosphorus as a promising candidate for MIR optoelectronic applications but also pave the way for a general strategy to suppress 1/f noise in photonic devices.

Background-Free Near-Infrared Biphoton Emission from Single GaAs Nanowires.

Project description:The generation of photon pairs from nanoscale structures with high rates is still a challenge for the integration of quantum devices, as it suffers from parasitic signals from the substrate. In this work, we report type-0 spontaneous parametric down-conversion at 1550 nm from individual bottom-up grown zinc-blende GaAs nanowires with lengths of up to 5 μm and diameters of up to 450 nm. The nanowires were deposited on a transparent ITO substrate, and we measured a background-free coincidence rate of 0.05 Hz in a Hanbury-Brown-Twiss setup. Taking into account transmission losses, the pump fluence, and the nanowire volume, we achieved a biphoton generation of 60 GHz/Wm, which is at least 3 times higher than that of previously reported single nonlinear micro- and nanostructures. We also studied the correlations between the second-harmonic generation and the spontaneous parametric down-conversion intensities with respect to the pump polarization and in different individual nanowires.

Planar-integrated single-crystalline perovskite photodetectors.

Project description:Hybrid perovskites are promising semiconductors for optoelectronic applications. However, they suffer from morphological disorder that limits their optoelectronic properties and, ultimately, device performance. Recently, perovskite single crystals have been shown to overcome this problem and exhibit impressive improvements: low trap density, low intrinsic carrier concentration, high mobility, and long diffusion length that outperform perovskite-based thin films. These characteristics make the material ideal for realizing photodetection that is simultaneously fast and sensitive; unfortunately, these macroscopic single crystals cannot be grown on a planar substrate, curtailing their potential for optoelectronic integration. Here we produce large-area planar-integrated films made up of large perovskite single crystals. These crystalline films exhibit mobility and diffusion length comparable with those of single crystals. Using this technique, we produced a high-performance light detector showing high gain (above 10(4) electrons per photon) and high gain-bandwidth product (above 10(8) Hz) relative to other perovskite-based optical sensors.

Silicon/2D-material photodetectors: from near-infrared to mid-infrared.

Project description:Two-dimensional materials (2DMs) have been used widely in constructing photodetectors (PDs) because of their advantages in flexible integration and ultrabroad operation wavelength range. Specifically, 2DM PDs on silicon have attracted much attention because silicon microelectronics and silicon photonics have been developed successfully for many applications. 2DM PDs meet the imperious demand of silicon photonics on low-cost, high-performance, and broadband photodetection. In this work, a review is given for the recent progresses of Si/2DM PDs working in the wavelength band from near-infrared to mid-infrared, which are attractive for many applications. The operation mechanisms and the device configurations are summarized in the first part. The waveguide-integrated PDs and the surface-illuminated PDs are then reviewed in details, respectively. The discussion and outlook for 2DM PDs on silicon are finally given.

Red-light excited efficient metal-free near-infrared room-temperature phosphorescent films.

Project description:A set of red-light-excited, metal-free room-temperature phosphorescence (RTP) systems was constructed with brominated phenolsulfonephthaleine derivatives. The best metal-free RTP system has the reddest near-infrared (NIR) RTP emission (λp = 819 nm) with the highest phosphorescence quantum yield (ΦRTP = 3.0%) so far identified. The RTP emission can be switched ON-OFF by adding acid and alkali alternately. A logic operation with half-subtractor function and dual-channel response (visible light emission/NIR RTP emission) was also constructed based on these properties.

Room Temperature Broadband Bi<sub>2</sub>Te<sub>3</sub>/PbS Colloidal Quantum Dots Infrared Photodetectors.

Project description:Lead sulfide colloidal quantum dots (PbS CQDs) are promising optoelectronic materials due to their unique properties, such as tunable band gap and strong absorption, which are of immense interest for application in photodetectors and solar cells. However, the tunable band gap of PbS CQDs would only cover visible short-wave infrared; the ability to detect longer wavelengths, such as mid- and long-wave infrared, is limited because they are restricted by the band gap of the bulk material. In this paper, a novel photodetector based on the synergistic effect of PbS CQDs and bismuth telluride (Bi2Te3) was developed for the detection of a mid-wave infrared band at room temperature. The device demonstrated good performance in the visible-near infrared band (i.e., between 660 and 850 nm) with detectivity of 1.6 × 1010 Jones at room temperature. It also exhibited photoelectric response in the mid-wave infrared band (i.e., between 4.6 and 5.1 μm). The facile fabrication process and excellent performance (with a response of up to 5.1 μm) of the hybrid Bi2Te3/PbS CQDS photodetector are highly attractive for many important applications that require high sensitivity and broadband light detection.

Telecom-band lasing in single InP/InAs heterostructure nanowires at room temperature.

Project description:Telecom-band single nanowire lasers made by the bottom-up vapor-liquid-solid approach, which is technologically important in optical fiber communication systems, still remain challenging. Here, we report telecom-band single nanowire lasers operating at room temperature based on multi-quantum-disk InP/InAs heterostructure nanowires. Transmission electron microscopy studies show that highly uniform multi-quantum-disk InP/InAs structure is grown in InP nanowires by self-catalyzed vapor-liquid-solid mode using indium particle catalysts. Optical excitation of individual nanowires yielded lasing in telecom band operating at room temperature. We show the tunability of laser wavelength range in telecom band by modulating the thickness of single InAs quantum disks through quantum confinement along the axial direction. The demonstration of telecom-band single nanowire lasers operating at room temperature is a major step forward in providing practical integrable coherent light sources for optoelectronics and data communication.
