Abstract
Photodetectors, essential for a wide range of optoelectronic applications in both military and civilian sectors, face challenges in balancing responsivity, detectivity, and response time due to their inherent unidirectional carrier transport mechanism. Multifunctional photodetectors that address these trade-offs are highly sought after for their potential to reduce costs, simplify system design, and surpass Moore's Law limitations. Herein, we present a multimodal phototransistor based on a 2D MoTe2/In2S3 heterostructure. Through dual electrical modulation employing bias voltage and gate voltage, we engineer the energy band to achieve switchable photoresponse mechanisms between photoconductive and photovoltaic modes. In photoconductive mode, the device exhibits a responsivity of 320 A/W and a specific detectivity of 1.2 × 1013 Jones. Meanwhile, in photovoltaic mode, it exhibits a light on/off ratio of 2 × 105 and response speed of 0.68/0.60 ms. These capabilities enable multifunctional applications such as high-resolution imaging across various wavelengths, a conceptual optoelectronic logic gate, and dual-channel optical communication. This work makes an advancement in the development of future multifunctional optoelectronic devices.

Abstract
The intrinsic low-symmetry crystal structures or external geometries of low-dimensional materials are crucial for polarization-sensitive photodetection. However, these inherently anisotropic materials are limited in variety, and their anisotropy is confined to specific crystal directions. Transforming 2D semiconductors, such as WSe2, from isotropic 2D nanosheets into anisotropic 1D nanoscrolls expands their application in polarization photodetection. Despite this considerable potential, research on polarization photodetection based on nanoscrolls remains scarce. Here, the uniform crystalline orientation of WSe2 nanoscrolls is achieved conveniently and efficiently by applying ethanol droplets to vapor deposition-grown bilayer WSe2 nanosheets. Angle-resolved polarized Raman spectroscopy of WSe2 nanoscrolls demonstrates vibrational anisotropy. Photodetectors based on these nanoscrolls show competitive overall performance with a broadband detection range from 405 to 808 nm, a competitive on/off ratio of ≈900, a high detectivity of 3.4 × 108 Jones, and a fast response speed of ≈30 ms. Additionally, WSe2 nanoscroll-based photodetectors exhibit strong polarization-sensitive detection with a maximum dichroic ratio of 1.5. More interestingly, due to high photosensitivity, the WSe2 nanoscroll detectors can easily record sequential puppy images. This work reveals the potential of WSe2 nanoscrolls as excellent polarization-sensitive photodetectors and provides new insights into the development of high-performance optoelectronic devices.

Abstract
The pursuit of increased efficiency of photoelectric energy conversion through optimized semiconductor structures remains highly competitive, with current results yet to align with broad expectations. In this study, we discover a significant enhancement in photocurrent performance of a p-3C-SiC nanothin film on p-Si/n-Si double junction (DJ) heterostructure that integrates p-3C-SiC/p-Si heterojunction and p-Si/n-Si homojunction. The vertical photocurrent (VPC) and vertical photoresponsivity exhibit a substantial enhancement in the DJ heterostructure, surpassing by a maximum of 43-fold compared to the p-3C-SiC/n-Si single junction (SJ) counterpart. The p-3C-SiC layer and n-Si substrate of the two heterostructures have similar material and geometrical properties. More importantly, the fabrication costs for the DJ and SJ heterostructure devices are comparable. Our results demonstrate a significant potential for using DJ devices in energy harvesters, micro/nano electromechanical systems, and sensing applications. This research may also lead to the creation of advanced optoelectronic devices using DJ structures, where employing various semiconductor materials to achieve exceptional performance through the application of the concept and theoretical model described in this work.

Abstract
With distinctive advantages spanning excellent flexibility, rich physical properties, strong electrostatic tunability, dangling-bond-free surface, and ease of integration, 2D layered materials (2DLMs) have demonstrated tremendous potential for photodetection. However, to date, most of the research enthusiasm has been merely focused on developing novel prototype devices. In the past few years, researchers have also been devoted to developing various downstream applications based on 2DLM photodetectors to contribute to promoting them from fundamental research to practical commercialization, and extensive accomplishments have been realized. In spite of the remarkable advancements, these fascinating research findings are relatively scattered. To date, there is still a lack of a systematic and profound summarization regarding this fast-evolving domain. This is not beneficial to researchers, especially researchers just entering this research field, who want to have a quick, timely, and comprehensive inspection of this fascinating domain. To address this issue, in this review, the emerging downstream applications of 2DLM photodetectors in extensive fields, including imaging, health monitoring, target tracking, optoelectronic logic operation, ultraviolet monitoring, optical communications, automatic driving, and acoustic signal detection, have been systematically summarized, with the focus on the underlying working mechanisms. At the end, the ongoing challenges of this rapidly progressing domain are identified, and the potential schemes to address them are envisioned, which aim at navigating the future exploration as well as fully exerting the pivotal roles of 2DLMs towards the practical optoelectronic industry.

Abstract
Photodetectors based on two-dimensional van der Waals (2D vdW) heterostructures with high detectivity and rapid response have emerged as promising candidates for next-generation imaging applications. However, the practical application of currently studied 2D vdW heterostructures faces challenges related to insufficient light absorption and inadequate separation of photocarriers. To address these challenges, we present a sandwiched WS2/MoTe2/WS2 heterostructure with a completely depleted interlayer, integrated on a mirror electrode, for a highly efficient photodetector. This well-designed structure enhances light-matter interactions while facilitating effective separation and rapid collection of photocarriers. The resulting photodetector exhibits a broadband photoresponse spanning from deep ultraviolet to near-infrared wavelengths. When operated in self-powered mode, the device demonstrates an exceptional response speed of 22/34 μs, along with an impressive detectivity of 8.27 × 1010 Jones under 635 nm illumination. Additionally, by applying a bias voltage of -1 V, the detectivity can be further increased to 1.49 × 1012 Jones, while still maintaining a rapid response speed of 180/190 μs. Leveraging these outstanding performance metrics, high-resolution visible-near-infrared light imaging has been successfully demonstrated using this device. Our findings provide valuable insights into the optimization of device architecture for diverse photoelectric applications.

Abstract
Two-dimensional (2D) gallium selenide (GaSe) holds great promise for pioneering advancements in photodetection due to its exceptional electronic and optoelectronic properties. However, in conventional photodetectors, 2D GaSe only functions as a photosensitive layer, failing to fully exploit its inherent photosensitive potential. Herein, we propose an ultrasensitive photodetector based on out-of-plane 2D GaSe/MoSe2 heterostructure. Through interfacial engineering, 2D GaSe serves not only as the photosensitive layer but also as the photoconductive gain and passivation layer, introducing a photogating effect and extending the lifetime of photocarriers. Capitalizing on these features, the device exhibits exceptional photodetection performance, including a responsivity of 28 800 A/W, specific detectivity of 7.1 × 1014 Jones, light on/off ratio of 1.2 × 106, and rise/fall time of 112.4/426.8 μs. Moreover, high-resolution imaging under various wavelengths is successfully demonstrated using this device. Additionally, we showcase the generality of this device design by activating the photosensitive potential of 2D GaSe with other transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDCs) such as WSe2, WS2, and MoS2. This work provides inspiration for future development in high-performance photodetectors, shining a spotlight on the potential of 2D GaSe and its heterostructure.

Abstract
Two-dimensional (2D) materials have attracted great attention in the past few years and offer new opportunities for the development of high-performance and multifunctional bipolar junction transistors (BJTs). Here, a van der Waals BJT based on vertically stacked n+-MoS2/WSe2/MoS2 was demonstrated. The electrical performance of the device was investigated under common-base and common-emitter configurations, which show relatively large current gains of α ≈ 0.98 and β ≈ 225. In addition, the breakdown characteristics of the vertically stacked n+-MoS2/WSe2/MoS2 BJT were investigated. An open-emitter base-collector breakdown voltage (BVCBO) of 52.9 V and an open-base collector-emitter breakdown voltage (BVCEO) of 40.3 V were observed under a room-temperature condition. With the increase in the operating temperature, both BVCBO and BVCEO increased. This study demonstrates a promising way to obtain 2D-material-based BJT with high current gains and provides a deep insight into the breakdown characteristics of the device, which may promote the applications of van der Waals BJTs in the fields of integrated circuits.

Abstract
Two-dimensional van der Waals (2D vdW) heterostructure photodetectors have garnered significant attention for their potential applications in next-generation optoelectronic systems. However, current 2D vdW photodetectors inevitably encounter compromises between responsivity, detectivity, and response time due to the absence of multilevel regulation for free and photoexcited carriers, thereby restricting their widespread applications. To address this challenge, we propose an efficient 2D WS2/CuInP2S6 vdW heterostructure photodetector by combining band engineering and ferroelectric modulation. In this device, the asymmetric conduction and valence band offsets effectively block the majority carriers (free electrons), while photoexcited holes are efficiently tunneled and rapidly collected by the bottom electrode. Additionally, the ferroelectric CuInP2S6 layer generates polarization states that reconfigure the built-in electric field, reducing dark current and facilitating the separation of photocarriers. Moreover, photoelectrons are trapped during long-distance lateral transport, resulting in a high photoconductivity gain. Consequently, the device achieves an impressive responsivity of 88 A W-1, an outstanding specific detectivity of 3.4 × 1013 Jones, and a fast response time of 37.6/371.3 μs. Moreover, the capability of high-resolution imaging under various wavelengths and fast optical communication has been successfully demonstrated using this device, highlighting its promising application prospects in future optoelectronic systems.

Abstract
Graphene possesses an exotic band structure that spans a wide range of important technological wavelength regimes for photodetection, all within a single material. Conventional methods aimed at enhancing detection efficiency often suffer from an extended response time when the light is switched off. The task of achieving ultrafast broad-band photodetection with a high gain remains challenging. Here, we propose a devised architecture that combines graphene with a photosensitizer composed of an alternating strip superstructure of WS2-WSe2. Upon illumination, n+-WS2 and p+-WSe2 strips create alternating electron- and hole-conduction channels in graphene, effectively overcoming the tradeoff between the responsivity and switch time. This configuration allows for achieving a responsivity of 1.7 × 107 mA/W, with an extrinsic response time of 3-4 μs. The inclusion of the superstructure booster enables photodetection across a wide range from the near-ultraviolet to mid-infrared regime and offers a distinctive photogating route for high responsivity and fast temporal response in the pursuit of broad-band detection.

Abstract
Two-dimensional (2D) self-driven photodetectors have a wide range of applications in wearable, imaging, and flexible electronics. However, the preparation of most self-powered photodetectors is still complex and time-consuming. Simultaneously, the constant work function of a metal, numerous defects, and a large Schottky barrier at the 2D/metal interface hinder the transmission and collection of optical carriers, which will suppress the optical responsivity of the device. This paper proposed a self-driven graphene/WSe2/graphene (Gr/WSe2/Gr) photodetector with asymmetric Schottky van der Waals (vdWs) contacts. The vdWs contacts are formed by transferring Gr as electrodes using the dry-transfer method, obviating the limitations of defects and Fermi-level pinning at the interface of electrodes made by conventional metal deposition methods to a great extent and resulting in superior dynamic response, which leads to a more efficient and faster collection of photogenerated carriers. This work also demonstrates that the significant surface potential difference of Gr electrodes is a crucial factor to ensure their superior performance. The self-driven Gr/WSe2/Gr photodetector exhibits an ultrahigh Ilight/Idark ratio of 106 with a responsivity value of 20.31 mA/W and an open-circuit voltage of 0.37 V at zero bias. The photodetector also has ultrafast response speeds of 42.9 and 56.0 μs. This paper provides a feasible way to develop self-driven optoelectronic devices with a simple structure and excellent performance.

Abstract
Laser-driven phase transition of 2D transition metal dichalcogenides has attracted much attention due to its high flexibility and rapidity. However, there are some limitations during the laser irradiation process, especially the unsatisfied surface ablation, the inability of nanoscale phase patterning, and the unexploited physical properties of new phase. In this work, the well-controlled femtosecond (fs) laser-driven transformation from the metallic 2M-WS2 to the semiconducting 2H-WS2 is reported, which is confirmed to be a single-crystal to single-crystal transition without layer thinning or obvious ablation. Moreover, a highly ordered 2H/2M nano-periodic phase transition with a resolution of ≈435 nm is achieved, breaking through the existing size bottleneck of laser-driven phase transition, which is attributed to the selective deposition of plasmon energy induced by fs laser. It is also demonstrated that the achieved 2H-WS2 after laser irradiation contains rich sulfur vacancies, which exhibits highly competitive ammonia gas sensing performance, with a detection limit below 0.1 ppm and a fast response/recovery time of 43/67 s at room temperature. This study provides a new strategy for the preparation of the phase-selective transition homojunction and high-performance applications in electronics.

Abstract
2D metal halides have attracted increasing research attention in recent years; however, it is still challenging to synthesize them via liquid-phase methods. Here it is demonstrated that a droplet method is simple and efficient for the synthesis of multiclass 2D metal halides, including trivalent (BiI3 , SbI3 ), divalent (SnI2 , GeI2 ), and monovalent (CuI) ones. In particular, 2D SbI3 is first experimentally achieved, of which the thinnest thickness is ≈6 nm. The nucleation and growth of these metal halide nanosheets are mainly determined by the supersaturation of precursor solutions that are dynamically varying during the solution evaporation. After solution drying, the nanosheets can fall on the surface of many different substrates, which further enables the feasible fabrication of related heterostructures and devices. With SbI3 /WSe2 being a good demonstration, the photoluminescence intensity and photo responsivity of WSe2 is obviously enhanced after interfacing with SbI3 . The work opens a new pathway for 2D metal halides toward widespread investigation and applications.

Abstract
Driven by the rapid development of autonomous vehicles, ultrasensitive photodetectors with high signal-to-noise ratio and ultraweak light detection capability are urgently needed. Due to its intriguing attributes, the emerging van der Waals material, indium selenide (In2Se3), has attracted extensive attention as an ultrasensitive photoactive material. However, the lack of an effective photoconductive gain mechanism in individual In2Se3 inhibits its further application. Herein, we propose a heterostructure photodetector consisting of an In2Se3 photoactive channel, a hexagonal boron nitride (h-BN) passivation layer, and a CsPb(Br/I)3 quantum dot gain layer. This device manifests a signal-to-noise ratio of 2 × 106 with responsivity of 2994 A/W and detectivity of 4.3 × 1014 Jones. Especially, it enables the detection of weak light as low as 0.03 μW/cm2. These performance characteristics are ascribed to the interfacial engineering. In2Se3 and CsPb(Br/I)3 with type-II band alignment promote the separation of photocarriers, while h-BN passivates the impurities on CsPb(Br/I)3 and promises a high-quality carrier transport interface. Furthermore, this device is successfully integrated into an automatic obstacle avoidance system, demonstrating promising application prospects in autonomous vehicles.

Abstract
We present a straightforward approach to develop a high-detectivity silicon (Si) sub-bandgap near-infrared (NIR) photodetector (PD) based on textured Si/Au nanoparticle (NP) Schottky junctions coated with graphene film. This is a photovoltaic-type PD that operates at 0 V bias. The texturing of Si is to trap light for NIR absorption enhancement, and Schottky junctions facilitate sub-bandgap NIR absorption and internal photoemission. Both Au NPs and the texturing of Si were made in self-organized processes. Graphene offers additional pathways for hot electron transport and to increase photocurrent. Under 1319 nm illumination at room temperature, a responsivity of 3.9 mA/W and detectivity of 7.2 × 1010 cm × (Hz)1/2/W were obtained. Additionally, at -60 °C, the detectivity increased to 1.5 × 1011 cm × (Hz)1/2/W, with the dark current density reduced and responsivity unchanged. The result of this work demonstrates a facile method to create high-performance Si sub-bandgap NIR PDs for promising applications at ambient temperatures.

Abstract
Self-powered photodetectors have triggered widespread attention because of the requirement of Internet of Things (IoT) application and low power consumption. However, it is challenging to simultaneously implement miniaturization, high quantum efficiency, and multifunctionalization. Here, we report a high-efficiency and polarization-sensitive photodetector enabled by two-dimensional (2D) WSe2/Ta2NiSe5/WSe2 van der Waals (vdW) dual heterojunctions (DHJ) along with a sandwich-like electrode pair. On account of enhanced light collection efficiency and two opposite built-in electric fields at the hetero-interfaces, the DHJ device achieves not only a broadband spectral response of 400-1550 nm but outstanding performance under 635 nm light illumination including an ultrahigh external quantum efficiency (EQE) of 85.5%, a pronounced power conversion efficiency (PCE) of 1.9%, and a fast response speed of 420/640 μs, which is much better than that of the WSe2/Ta2NiSe5 single heterojunction (SHJ). Significantly, based on the strong in-plane anisotropy of 2D Ta2NiSe5 nanosheets, the DHJ device shows competitive polarization sensitivities of 13.9 and 14.8 under 635 and 808 nm light, respectively. Furthermore, an excellent self-powered visible imaging capability based on the DHJ device is demonstrated. These results pave a promising platform for realizing self-powered photodetectors with high performance and multifunctionality.

Abstract
With the rapid development of two-dimensional semiconductor technology, the inevitable chemical disorder at a typical metal-semiconductor interface has become an increasingly serious problem that degrades the performance of 2D semiconductor optoelectronic devices. Herein, defect-free van der Waals contacts have been achieved by utilizing topological Bi2 Se3 as the electrodes. Such clean and atomically sharp contacts avoid the consumption of photogenerated carriers at the interface, enabling a markedly boosted sensitivity as compared to counterpart devices with directly deposited metal electrodes. Typically, the device with 2D WSe2 channel realizes a high responsivity of 20.5 A W-1 , an excellent detectivity of 2.18 × 1012 Jones, and a fast rise/decay time of 41.66/38.81 ms. Furthermore, high-resolution visible-light imaging capability of the WSe2 device is demonstrated, indicating its promising application prospect in future optoelectronic systems. More inspiringly, the topological electrodes are universally applicable to other 2D semiconductor channels, including WS2 and InSe, suggesting its broad applicability. These results open fascinating opportunities for the development of high-performance electronics and optoelectronics.

High-Performance and Polarization-Sensitive Imaging Photodetector Based on WS 2 /Te Tunneling Heterostructure. SMALL (WEINHEIM AN DER BERGSTRASSE, GERMANY) 2023; 19:e2207615. [PMID: 36605013 DOI: 10.1002/smll.202207615] [Citation(s) in RCA: 12] [Impact Index Per Article: 12.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/06/2022] [Revised: 12/23/2022] [Indexed: 06/17/2023]
Abstract
Next-generation imaging systems require photodetectors with high sensitivity, polarization sensitivity, miniaturization, and integration. By virtue of their intriguing attributes, emerging 2D materials offer innovative avenues to meet these requirements. However, the current performance of 2D photodetectors is still below the requirements for practical application owing to the severe interfacial recombination, the lack of photoconductive gain, and insufficient photocarrier collection. Here, a tunneling dominant imaging photodetector based on WS2 /Te heterostructure is reported. This device demonstrates competitive performance, including a remarkable responsivity of 402 A W-1 , an outstanding detectivity of 9.28 × 1013 Jones, a fast rise/decay time of 1.7/3.2 ms, and a high photocurrent anisotropic ratio of 2.5. These outstanding performances can be attributed to the type-I band alignment with carrier transmission barriers and photoinduced tunneling mechanism, allowing reduced interfacial trapping effect, effective photoconductive gains, and anisotropic collection of photocarriers. Significantly, the constructed photodetector is successfully integrated into a polarized light imaging system and an ultra-weak light imaging system to illustrate the imaging capability. These results suggest the promising application prospect of the device in future imaging systems.

Abstract
Atomically 2D layered ferroelectric semiconductors, in which the polarization switching process occurs within the channel material itself, offer a new material platform that can drive electronic components toward structural simplification and high-density integration. Here, a room-temperature 2D layered ferroelectric semiconductor, bismuth oxychalcogenides (Bi2 O2 Se), is investigated with a thickness down to 7.3 nm (≈12 layers) and piezoelectric coefficient (d33 ) of 4.4 ± 0.1 pm V-1 . The random orientations and electrically dependent polarization of the dipoles in Bi2 O2 Se are separately uncovered owing to the structural symmetry-breaking at room temperature. Specifically, the interplay between ferroelectricity and semiconducting characteristics of Bi2 O2 Se is explored on device-level operation, revealing the hysteresis behavior and memory window (MW) formation. Leveraging the ferroelectric polarization originating from Bi2 O2 Se, the fabricated device exhibits "smart" photoresponse tunability and excellent electronic characteristics, e.g., a high on/off current ratio > 104 and a large MW to the sweeping range of 47% at VGS = ±5 V. These results demonstrate the synergistic combination of ferroelectricity with semiconducting characteristics in Bi2 O2 Se, laying the foundation for integrating sensing, logic, and memory functions into a single material system that can overcome the bottlenecks in von Neumann architecture.
