Abstract
The processing of visual information occurs mainly in the retina, and the retinal preprocessing function greatly improves the transmission quality and efficiency of visual information. The artificial retina system provides a promising path to efficient image processing. Here, graphene/InSe/h-BN heterogeneous structure is proposed, which exhibits negative and positive photoconductance (NPC and PPC) effects by altering the strength of a single wavelength laser. Moreover, a modified theoretical model is presented based on the power-dependent photoconductivity effect of laser:I ph = - mP α 1 + nP α 2 ${\rm I}_{\rm ph}\,=\,-{\rm mP}^{\alpha _{1}} + {\rm nP}^{\alpha _{2}}$ , which can reveal the internal physical mechanism of negative/positive photoconductance effects. The present 2D structure design allows the field effect transistor (FET) to exhibit excellent photoelectric performance (RNPC = 1.1× 104 AW-1, RPPC = 13 AW-1) and performance stability. Especially, the retinal pretreatment process is successfully simulated based on the negative and positive photoconductive effects. Moreover, the pulse signal input improves the device responsivity by 167%, and the transmission quality and efficiency of the visual signal can also be enhanced. This work provides a new design idea and direction for the construction of artificial vision, and lay a foundation for the integration of the next generation of optoelectronic devices.

Abstract
Near-infrared (NIR) polarization photodetectors with two-dimensional (2D) semiconductors and their van der Waals (vdW) heterostructures have presented great impact for the development of a wide range of technologies, such as in the optoelectronics and communication fields. Nevertheless, the lack of a photogenerated charge carrier at the device's interface leads to a poor charge carrier collection efficiency and a low linear dichroism ratio, hindering the achievement of high-performance optoelectronic devices with multifunctionalities. Herein, we present a type-II violet phosphorus (VP)/InSe vdW heterostructure that is predicted via density functional theory calculation and confirmed by Kelvin probe force microscopy. Benefiting from the type-II band alignment, the VP/InSe vdW heterostructure-based photodetector achieves excellent photodetection performance such as a responsivity (R) of 182.8 A/W, a detectivity (D*) of 7.86 × 1012 Jones, and an external quantum efficiency (EQE) of 11,939% under a 1064 nm photon excitation. Furthermore, the photodetection performance can be enhanced by manipulating the device geometry by inserting a few layers of graphene between the VP and InSe (VP/Gr/InSe). Remarkably, the VP/Gr/InSe vdW heterostructure shows a competitive polarization sensitivity of 2.59 at 1064 nm and can be integrated as an image sensor. This work demonstrates that VP/InSe and VP/Gr/InSe vdW heterostructures will be effective for promising integrated NIR optoelectronics.

SMALL (WEINHEIM AN DER BERGSTRASSE, GERMANY) 2024; 20:e2304839.

Abstract
The construction of nanostructured Z-scheme heterostructure is a powerful strategy for realizing high-performance photoelectrochemical (PEC) devices such as self-powered photodetectors and water splitting. Considering the band structure and internal electric field direction, BiVO4 is a promising candidate to construct SnS2 -based heterostructure. Herein, the direct Z-scheme heterostructure of vertically oriented SnS2 nanosheet on BiVO4 nanoflower is rationally fabricated for efficient self-powered PEC photodetectors. The Z-scheme heterostructure is identified by ultraviolet photoelectron spectroscopy, photoluminescence spectroscopy, PEC measurement, and water splitting. The SnS2 /BiVO4 heterostructure shows a superior photodetection performance such as excellent photoresponsivity (10.43 mA W-1 ), fast response time (6 ms), and long-term stability. Additionally, by virtue of efficient Z-scheme charge transfer and unique light-trapping nanostructure, the SnS2 /BiVO4 heterostructure also displays a remarkable photocatalytic hydrogen production rate of 54.3 µmol cm-2 h-1 in Na2 SO3 electrolyte. Furthermore, the synergistic effect between photo-activation and bias voltage further improves the PEC hydrogen production rate of 360 µmol cm-2 h-1 at 0.8 V, which is an order of magnitude above the BiVO4 . The results provide useful inspiration for designing direct Z-scheme heterostructures with special nanostructured morphology to signally promote the performance of PEC devices.
