Abstract
Self-powered photodetector plays a key role in lower power consumption operation in the next-generation optoelectronic system. In recent years, two-dimensional (2D) materials van der Waals lateral homojunction has revealed exceptional potential in the self-powered photodetector. Here, we propose a n–n+ lateral homojunction photodetector based on the intrinsic thickness-dependent bandgap of 2D semiconductor material MoS1.2Se0.8. The photodetector has a pronounced self-powered feature with gate-tunable photovoltaic response and exhibits remarkable zero-bias performance with a photoresponsivity of 4.35 A/W and a specific detectivity of 1.49 × 1011 Jones. Furthermore, the photodetector maintains superior performance across a broad spectral range from 405 to 808 nm. This work not only validates the significant potential of thickness-modulated lateral homojunction in self-powered photodetection but also establishes a versatile platform for developing advanced optoelectronic devices through band structure engineering in 2D material systems.
期刊介绍:
Applied Physics Letters (APL) features concise, up-to-date reports on significant new findings in applied physics. Emphasizing rapid dissemination of key data and new physical insights, APL offers prompt publication of new experimental and theoretical papers reporting applications of physics phenomena to all branches of science, engineering, and modern technology.
In addition to regular articles, the journal also publishes invited Fast Track, Perspectives, and in-depth Editorials which report on cutting-edge areas in applied physics.
APL Perspectives are forward-looking invited letters which highlight recent developments or discoveries. Emphasis is placed on very recent developments, potentially disruptive technologies, open questions and possible solutions. They also include a mini-roadmap detailing where the community should direct efforts in order for the phenomena to be viable for application and the challenges associated with meeting that performance threshold. Perspectives are characterized by personal viewpoints and opinions of recognized experts in the field.
Fast Track articles are invited original research articles that report results that are particularly novel and important or provide a significant advancement in an emerging field. Because of the urgency and scientific importance of the work, the peer review process is accelerated. If, during the review process, it becomes apparent that the paper does not meet the Fast Track criterion, it is returned to a normal track.
