RESUMEN
Antimony selenide (Sb2Se3) is a suitable candidate for a broadband photodetector owing to its remarkable optoelectronic properties. Achieving a high-performance self-powered photodetector through a desirable heterojunction still needs more efforts to explore. In this work, we demonstrate a broadband photodetector based on the hybrid heterostructure of Sb2Se3 nanorod arrays (NRAs) absorber and polymer acceptor (P(NDI2OD-T2), N2200). Owing to the well-matched energy levels between N2200 and Sb2Se3, the recombination of photogenerated electrons and holes in N2200/Sb2Se3 hybrid heterostructure is greatly inhibited. The photodetector can detect the wavelength from 405 to 980â nm, and exhibit high responsivity of 0.39 A/W and specific detectivity of 1.84 × 1011 Jones at 780â nm without bias voltage. Meanwhile, ultrafast response rise time (0.25â ms) and fall time (0.35â ms) are obtained. Moreover, the time-dependent photocurrent of this heterostructure-based photodetector keeps almost the same value after the storge for 40 days, indicating the excellent stability and reproducibility. These results demonstrate the potential application of a N2200/Sb2Se3 NRAs heterojunction in visible-near-infrared photodetectors.
RESUMEN
Binary Sb2 Se3 semiconductors are promising as the absorber materials in inorganic chalcogenide compound photovoltaics due to their attractive anisotropic optoelectronic properties. However, Sb2 Se3 solar cells suffer from complex and unconventional intrinsic defects due to the low symmetry of the quasi-1D crystal structure resulting in a considerable voltage deficit, which limits the ultimate power conversion efficiency (PCE). In this work, the creation of compact Sb2 Se3 films with strong [00l] orientation, high crystallinity, minimal deep level defect density, fewer trap states, and low non-radiative recombination loss by injection vapor deposition is reported. This deposition technique enables superior films compared with close-spaced sublimation and coevaporation technologies. The resulting Sb2 Se3 thin-film solar cells yield a PCE of 10.12%, owing to the suppressed carrier recombination and excellent carrier transport and extraction. This method thus opens a new and effective avenue for the fabrication of high-quality Sb2 Se3 and other high-quality chalcogenide semiconductors.
RESUMEN
Anisotropic antimony selenide (Sb2Se3) semiconductor has received considerable attention due to its unique one-dimensional crystal structure and corresponding superior and anisotropic optical and electronic properties. It is a promising material for a wide range of applications related to electronics and optoelectronics. Herein, we demonstrate a high-performance and self-powered Sb2Se3 nanorod array-based core/shell heterojunction detector fabricated on glass substate. The detector shows a wide spectral photoresponse range from visible to near-infrared (405-980 nm). The detector yields a detectivity of as high as 2.06×1012 Jones in the visible light (638 nm) and that of 1.82×1012 Jones (830 nm) at zero bias. Due to the strong built-in filed and excellent carrier transport, the detector exhibits ultrafast response speed at both rise (30 µs) and decay (68 µs) processes. Further analysis demonstrates that the noise is mainly generated from the 1/f noise in the low frequency range, while it is affected by the shot noise and generation-recombination noise in high frequency.
