Abstract
Ruthenium (Ru)-based chalcogenide (S, Se) is a promising material in various fields, such as optics, photoelectrodes, and electrocatalysis, owing to its suitable bandgap for generating charge carriers under light illumination ranging from visible to near-infrared (NIR) and its high absorption coefficient. In this study, we report the synthesis of RuSe2 thin films by chemical vapor deposition (CVD) with a bandgap matching the NIR region at 0.52 eV. Further, we demonstrated RuS2xSe2−2x alloy films using the post-sulfurization process after CVD RuSe2 with a tunable bandgap from 0.52 to 1.39 eV depending on sulfur composition. Remarkably, RuS2xSe2−2x alloy film metal–semiconductor–metal (MSM) photodetector sulfurized at 500 °C, with a 0.75 eV bandgap, exhibits enhanced broad absorption across NIR spectral ranges, suppressed dark current and high photoresponsivity in NIR wavelengths range even at zero-bias. We believe the bandgap-tunable RuS2xSe2−2x thin film through an efficient deposition method could be suitable for various optoelectronic applications.
