Probing interfacial states in β-Ga2O3/SiO2 TFTs for high-response broad-band photodetection
Mechanically exfoliated β-Ga2O3 flakes preserve bulk material's single crystallinity for easy integration but suffer from interfacial defects that greatly influence device performance. In this paper, we report a quantitative characterization of interfacial states in phrase β-Ga2O3/SiO2 thin-film transistors and then propose their beneficial application in achieving high-response broad-band photodetection. Photo-excited charge collection spectroscopy technique was employed to probe the interfacial states, revealing a substantial density (∼4 × 1012 cm−2 eV−1) of deep-level states ranging from 2.5 to 3.7 eV below the conduction band. Intriguingly, a photoresponsivity as high as 2 × 104 A/W was achieved via utilizing these interfacial states, along with the tunable broad-band response ranging from 335 to 496 nm. This research enhances both the well-industrialized silicon devices and the emerging β-Ga2O3 technologies. Furthermore, it introduces a profound concept: defects, once seen as flaws, can be assets when their characteristics are thoroughly understood.
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.
