Transient photoresponse and incident power dependence of high-efficiency germanium quantum dot photodetectors

Modeling of High Temperature GaN Quantum Dot Infrared Photodetectors

In this paper, we present calculations for different parameters of quantum dot infrared photodetectors. We considered a structure which includes quantum dots with large conduction-band-offset materials (GaN/AlGaN). Single band effective mass approximation has been applied in order to calculate the electronic structure. Throughout the modeling, we tried to consider the limiting factors which dec...

Improved photoresponse of InAs/GaAs quantum dot infrared photodetectors by using GaAs1−xSbx strain reducing layer

Single-crystalline In2S3 nanowire-based flexible visible-light photodetectors with an ultra-high photoresponse.

With a band gap of 2.28 eV, In2S3 is an excellent candidate for visible-light sensitive photodetectors. By growing single-crystalline In2S3 nanowires via a simple CVD method, we report the fabrication of high-performance single-crystal In2S3 nanowire-based flexible photodetectors. The as-fabricated flexible photodetectors exhibited an ultra-high Ion/Ioff ratio up to 10(6) and a high sensitivity...

Solution-processed hybrid perovskite photodetectors with high detectivity.

Photodetectors capture optical signals with a wide range of incident photon flux density and convert them to electrical signals instantaneously. They have many important applications including imaging, optical communication, remote control, chemical/biological sensing and so on. Currently, GaN, Si and InGaAs photodetectors are used in commercially available products. Here we demonstrate a novel...

Integrating an electrically active colloidal quantum dot photodiode with a graphene phototransistor

The realization of low-cost photodetectors with high sensitivity, high quantum efficiency, high gain and fast photoresponse in the visible and short-wave infrared remains one of the challenges in optoelectronics. Two classes of photodetectors that have been developed are photodiodes and phototransistors, each of them with specific drawbacks. Here we merge both types into a hybrid photodetector ...
