Abstract
Molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) possesses excellent potential for applications in the field of optoelectronic detection. However, the atomic-level thickness of the monolayer MoS2leads to weak light absorption and a restricted absorption spectrum. The performance of monolayer MoS2devices has reached a bottleneck. Fortunately, the above issues can be effectively solved by coupling with various types of photosensitivity nanostructures. In this work, we integrated MoS2quantum dots (QDs) with high efficient light absorption with monolayer MoS2to fabricate 0D/2D MoS2QDs/MoS2hybrid dimensional homojunction photodetectors. In this structure, MoS2is used as an efficient carrier transport channel, while MoS2QDs act as effective light absorbers to enhance the local electric field around MoS2. The synergistic effect of MoS2QDs and MoS2is utilized to accelerate the migration rate of photogenerated carriers in the structure, and in particular, the highest responsivity of the MoS2QDs/MoS2hybrid device is 27.6 A W-1with the detectivity as high as 2.13 × 1011Jones under 532 nm laser, which is an order of magnitude higher than that of the pristine MoS2devices. The synergistic effect of MoS2QDs with monolayer MoS2is verified by finite-difference time-domain simulation. The results will pave the way for the future development of high-performance MoS2-based photodetectors.
期刊介绍:
The journal aims to publish papers at the forefront of nanoscale science and technology and especially those of an interdisciplinary nature. Here, nanotechnology is taken to include the ability to individually address, control, and modify structures, materials and devices with nanometre precision, and the synthesis of such structures into systems of micro- and macroscopic dimensions such as MEMS based devices. It encompasses the understanding of the fundamental physics, chemistry, biology and technology of nanometre-scale objects and how such objects can be used in the areas of computation, sensors, nanostructured materials and nano-biotechnology.
