Abstract
The work provides a comprehensive explanation of the nature of chemical bonding through quantum chemical topology for multilayers of AIIIBVI compounds, such as GaSe, InSe, and GaTe, spanning pressures from 0 GPa to 30 GPa. These compounds are subjected to pressure orthogonal to the multilayers. Quantum chemical topological indices indicate that uniaxial pressure induces changes in hybridisation, leading to the disappearance of interlayer van der Waals forces. The distinct nature of the elements within the compounds results in different pressures at which van der Waals interactions disappear, as revealed by non-covalent interaction analysis. The presence or absence of chemical bonding is assessed by quantum topological indices as Espinosa indices, charge density distribution difference, and crystal orbital Hamilton populations. The varying changes in hybridisation, as indicated by topological indices, are corroborated by variations in the population of the electronic projected density of states. Ultimately, the type of chemical bonding is identified through the Espinosa indices in the field of Bader theory. This analysis confirms the existence of shared shell bonds between AIII and BVI atoms in vacuum that goes to an intermediate bond between shared and closed shells called the transition zone with increasing pressure. The implications and importance of this work extend beyond the presented results. It suggests that many other classes of two-dimensional materials may undergo phase transitions under uniaxial stress, leading to the formation of new phases with potentially interesting electronic properties.

Abstract
The remarkable properties of two-dimensional (2D) materials have led to significant advancements in photodetection and optoelectronics research. Currently, there are many successful methods that are employed to improve the responsivity of photodetectors, but the limited spectral range of the device remains a limitation. This work demonstrates the development of a mixed-dimensional (2D/0D) hybrid photodetector device fabricated using chemical vapor deposition (CVD)-grown monolayer ReS2 and solution-processed MoS2 quantum dots (QDs). The mixed dimensionality of 2D (ReS2) and zero-dimensional (0D) MoS2 QDs assist in improving the spectral range of the device [ultraviolet (360 nm) to near-infrared (780 nm)]. Further, due to the work function difference between ReS2 and MoS2 QDs, the built-in electric field across the mixed-dimensional interface promotes effective charge separation and migration, resulting in improved responsivities of the device. The calculated responsivities of the fabricated photodetector are 5.4 × 102, 3.3 × 102, and 2.6 × 102 A/W when subjected to visible, UV, and NIR light illumination, which is remarkable when compared to the existing reports on broadband photodetection. The mixed-dimensionality heterostructure coupled with contact engineering paves the way for highly responsive broadband photodetectors for potential applications in security, healthcare, etc.

Abstract
Two-dimensional transition metal dichalcogenides (2D-TMDCs) with various physical characteristics have attracted significant interest from the scientific and industrial worlds in the years following Moore's law. The p-n junction is one of the earliest electrical components to be utilized in electronics and optoelectronics, and modern research on 2D materials has renewed interest in it. In this regard, device preparation and application have evolved substantially in this decade. 2D TMDCs provide unprecedented flexibility in the construction of innovative p-n junction device designs, which is not achievable with traditional bulk semiconductors. It has been investigated using 2D TMDCs for various junctions, including homojunctions, heterojunctions, P-I-N junctions, and broken gap junctions. To achieve high-performance p-n junctions, several issues still need to be resolved, such as developing 2D TMDCs of superior quality, raising the rectification ratio and quantum efficiency, and successfully separating the photogenerated electron-hole pairs, among other things. This review comprehensively details the various 2D-based p-n junction geometries investigated with an emphasis on 2D junctions. We investigated the 2D p-n junctions utilized in current rectifiers and photodetectors. To make a comparison of various devices easier, important optoelectronic and electronic features are presented. We thoroughly assessed the review's prospects and challenges for this emerging field of study. This study will serve as a roadmap for more real-world photodetection technology applications.

Abstract
The incapability of modulating the photoresponse of assembled heterostructure devices has remained a challenge for the development of optoelectronics with multifunctionality. Here, a gate-tunable and anti-ambipolar phototransistor is reported based on 1D GaAsSb nanowire/2D MoS2 nanoflake mixed-dimensional van der Waals heterojunctions. The resulting heterojunction shows apparently asymmetric control over the anti-ambipolar transfer characteristics, possessing potential to implement electronic functions in logic circuits. Meanwhile, such an anti-ambipolar device allows the synchronous adjustment of band slope and depletion regions by gating in both components, thereby giving rise to the gate-tunability of the photoresponse. Coupled with the synergistic effect of the materials in different dimensionality, the hybrid heterojunction can be readily modulated by the external gate to achieve a high-performance photodetector exhibiting a large on/off current ratio of 4 × 104, fast response of 50 μs, and high detectivity of 1.64 × 1011 Jones. Due to the formation of type-II band alignment and strong interfacial coupling, a prominent photovoltaic response is explored in the heterojunction as well. Finally, a visible image sensor based on this hybrid device is demonstrated with good imaging capability, suggesting the promising application prospect in future optoelectronic systems.

Abstract
Conventional heterojunction photodetectors rely on planar junction architecture which suffer from low interfacial contact area, inferior light absorption characteristics and complex fabrication schemes. Heterojunctions based on mixed dimensional nanostructures such as 0D-1D, 1D-2D, 1D-3D etc have recently garnered exceptional research interest owing to their atomically sharp interfaces, tunable junction properties such as enhanced light absorption cross-section. In this work, a flexible broadband UV-vis photodetector employing mixed dimensional heterostructure of 1D NiO nanofibers and 3D Fe2O3nanoparticles is fabricated. NiO nanofibers were synthesized via economical and scalable electro-spinning technique and made composite with Fe2O3nanoclusters for hetero-structure fabrication. The optical absorption spectra of NiO nanofibers and Fe2O3nanoparticles exhibit peak absorption in UV and visible spectra, respectively. The as-fabricated photodetector displays quick response times of 0.09 s and 0.18 s and responsivities of 5.7 mA W-1(0.03 mW cm-2) and 5.2 mA W-1(0.01 mW cm-2) for UV and visible spectra, respectively. The fabricated NiO-Fe2O3device also exhibits excellent detectivity in the order of 1012jones. The superior performance of the device is ascribed to the type-II heterojunction between NiO-Fe2O3nanostructures, which results in the localized built-in potential at their interface, that aids in the effective carrier separation and transportation. Further, the flexible photodetector displays excellent robustness when bent over ∼1000 cycles thereby proving its potential towards developing reliable, diverse functional opto-electronic devices.

Abstract
Flexible photodetectors (PDs) have become the latest research interest owing to their potential applications in future implantable sensors and foldable/wearable optoelectronics. Ga2O3, an emerging ultrawide band gap semiconductor, is considered as the native photosensitive material for solar-blind PDs. The reported fabrication temperature of Ga2O3 films is usually above 600 °C, which hinders its practical application for flexible devices. In this work, flexible PDs based on graphene/amorphous Ga2O3 van der Waals heterojunctions are fabricated, which demonstrate promising photoresponse to solar-blind ultraviolet light. The device yields a high photo-to-dark current ratio (∼105) and large responsivity (22.75 A/W) under 254 nm light illumination, which could be ascribed to the efficient photogenerated electron-hole pair separation by the strong built-in field. Moreover, flexible PDs also show long-term environmental stability and outstanding mechanical flexibility without any encapsulation. Our work provides a new potential candidate for realizing cost-effective high-performance flexible optoelectronic applications.
