RESUMEN
Due to the unique combination configuration and the formation of a built-in electric field, mixed-dimensional heterojunctions present fruitful possibilities for improving the optoelectronic performances of low-dimensional optoelectronic devices. However, the response times of most photodetectors built from mixed-dimensional heterojunctions are within the millisecond range, limiting their applications in fast response optoelectronic devices. Herein, a mixed-dimensional BiSeI/GaSe van der Waals heterostructure is designed, which exhibits visible light detection ability and competitive photoresponsivity of 750 A W-1 and specific detectivity of 2.25 × 1012 Jones under 520 nm laser excitation. Excitingly, the device displays a very fast response time, e.g., the rise time and decay time under 520 nm laser excitation are 65 µs and 190 µs, respectively. Our findings provide a prospective approach to mixed-dimensional heterojunction photodetection devices with rapid switching capabilities.
RESUMEN
The demand for high-performance semiconductors in electronics and optoelectronics has prompted the expansion of low-dimensional materials research to ternary compounds. However, photodetectors based on 2D ternary materials usually suffer from large dark currents and slow response, which means increased power consumption and reduced performance. Here we report a systematic study of the optoelectronic properties of well-characterized rhombohedral ZnIn2S4 (R-ZIS) nanosheets which exhibit an extremely low dark current (7 pA at 5 V bias). The superior performance represented by a series of parameters surpasses most 2D counterparts. The ultrahigh specific detectivity (1.8 × 1014 Jones), comparably short response time (τrise = 222 µs, τdecay = 158 µs), and compatibility with high-frequency operation (1000 Hz) are particularly prominent. Moreover, a gate-tunable characteristic is observed, which is attributed to photogating and improves the photoresponse by 2 orders of magnitude. Gating technique can effectively modulate the photocurrent-generation mechanism from photoconductive effect to dominant photogating. The combination of ultrahigh sensitivity, ultrafast response, and high gate tunability makes the R-ZIS phototransistor an ideal device for low-energy-consumption and high-frequency optoelectronic applications, which is further demonstrated by its excellent performance in optical neural networks and promising potential in optical deep learning and computing.
RESUMEN
We report a highly efficient and easily transferable poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA)-assisted exfoliation method, which allows one to obtain van der Waals materials on large scales, e.g., centimeter-scale graphite flakes and hundred-micrometer-scale several layers of ZnIn2S4 and BN. The present exfoliation scheme is nondestructive, and the materials prepared by PVA-assisted exfoliation can be directly fabricated into devices. This exfoliation approach could be helpful in overcoming the preparation bottleneck for large-scale applications of two-dimensional (2D) materials.
RESUMEN
The influences of Mn substitution at the Ir site of Sr2IrO4are investigated via a comprehensive study of the variation of structural parameters, the transport and magnetic properties of the Sr2Ir1-xMnxO4samples. The incorporation of Mn leads to an increase of the in-plane Ir-O-Ir bond angle, while it is not sufficient to drive the Mott-insulating state to a metallic state. Interestingly, we find a coexistence of Ir4+-O2--Ir4+super-exchange interaction and Mn3+-O2--Mn4+double exchange interaction inx⩾ 0.06 samples. The Mn3+-O2--Mn4+ferromagnetic domains are isolated by the Ir4+-O2--Ir4+antiferromagnetic areas, leading to a severely localized electronic and magnetic states. The electron hopping between the localized states dominates the conductivity of the Sr2Ir1-xMnxO4samples.
RESUMEN
Research on two-dimensional transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) has grown rapidly over the past several years, from fundamental studies to the development of next generation technologies. Recently, it has been reported that the MX2-type PdTe2 exhibits superconductivity with topological surface state, making this compound a promising candidate for investigating possible topological superconductivity. However, due to the multi-band feature of most of TMDs, the investigating of magnetoresistance and quantum oscillations of these TMDs proves to be quite complicated. Here we report a combined de Hass-van Alphen effect and magnetoresistance studies on the PdTe2 single crystal. Our high-field de Hass-van Alphen data measured at different temperature and different tilting angle suggest that though these is a well-defined multi-band feature, a predominant oscillation frequency has the largest oscillation magnitude in the fast Fourier transformation spectra, which is at least one order of magnitude larger than other oscillation frequencies. Thus it is likely that the transport behavior in PdTe2 system can be simplified into a single-band model. Meanwhile, the magnetoresistance results of the PdTe2 sample can be well-fitted according to the single-band models. The present results could be important in further investigation of the transport behaviors of two-dimensional TMDs.
