ABSTRACT
The detection of mid-infrared light, covering a variety of molecular vibrational spectra, is critical for both civil and military purposes. Recent studies have highlighted the potential of two-dimensional topological semimetals for mid-infrared detection due to their advantages, including van der Waals (vdW) stacking and gapless electronic structures. Among them, mid-infrared photodetectors based on type-II Dirac semimetals have been less studied. In this paper, we present a silicon waveguide integrated type-II Dirac semimetal platinum telluride (PtTe2) mid-infrared photodetector, and further improve detection performance by using PtTe2-graphene heterostructure. For the fabricated silicon waveguide-integrated PtTe2 photodetector, with an external bias voltage of -10 mV and an input optical power of 86 nW, the measured responsivity is 2.7 A/W at 2004 nm and a 3 dB bandwidth of 0.6 MHz is realized. For the fabricated silicon waveguide-integrated PtTe2-graphene photodetector, as the external bias voltage and input optical power are 0.5 V and 0.13 µW, a responsivity of 5.5 A/W at 2004 nm and a 3 dB bandwidth of 35 MHz are obtained. An external quantum efficiency of 119% can be achieved at an input optical power of 0.376 µW.
