Synthesis, characterization, and self-powered UV photodetection properties of GaS
The band gap of GaS ranges from 3.05 eV to 2.6 eV as the number of layers increases from monolayer to bulk, making GaS more suitable for blue-ultraviolet photodetection applications. In this study, mono-phase GaS was obtained directly on the Ga metal surface at optimized vulcanization conditions. The single-crystalline characteristic of the fabricated GaS nanosheets was demonstrated by X-ray diffraction, Raman spectroscopy, and transmittance electron microscope analysis. Metal-semiconductor-metal structured photodetectors based on GaS nanosheets exhibited self-powered photodetection performance with a responsivity of 7.1 mA/W and a detectivity of 1 × 109 Jones under 365 nm illumination. The high self-powered performance of the device is attributed to the asymmetric contact electrodes. In addition, the device showed high photodetection performance with a responsivity as high as 40.1 mA/W and a detectivity of 1 × 1010 Jones at 3 V bias under a 365 nm light illumination. The work provides a viable reference for preparing GaS and advancing photodetectors for other monochalcogenides.
