Abstract
Topological materials with well-defined surfaces and edges have become a prominent research topic. As topological insulators, MnBi2Te4 thin films, with their unique surfaces, exhibit exceptional electron transport properties and good applicability in low-noise, high-sensitivity photoelectric detection. This paper reports a straightforward, efficient, and cost-effective thermal evaporation method for preparing quantum MnBi2Te4 thin films, along with an investigation into their photoelectric detection performance. These films can be used to fabricate array devices, with the resulting photodetectors achieving a response current of 97 mA W−1 at room temperature and a response speed of <1 ms. Moreover, they demonstrate stability in the air for >30 d, with the photoelectric performance degrading by <15%. Our research introduces a new application for topological materials in photoelectric detection and establishes a strong foundation for the design and development of high-performance photodetectors in the future.

期刊介绍:
Coatings is an international, peer-reviewed open access journal of coatings and surface engineering. It publishes reviews, research articles, communications and technical notes. Our aim is to encourage scientists to publish their experimental and theoretical results in as much detail as possible. There is no restriction on the length of the papers. Full experimental and/or methodical details must be provided. There are, in addition, unique features of this journal:
* manuscripts regarding research proposals and research ideas will be particularly welcomed
* electronic files or software regarding the full details of the calculation and experimental procedure - if unable to be published in a normal way - can be deposited as supplementary material
