Perovskite quantum dot-induced monochromatization for broadband photodetection of wafer-scale molybdenum disulfide
Source abstract
Abstract
Abstract Two-dimensional transition metal dichalcogenide (2D TMD) crystals are versatile platforms for realizing emergent optoelectronic devices. However, the ability to produce large-area 2D TMDs with spatial homogeneity and to accomplish broadband photodetection by tuning the operating wavelengths in photodetectors are two paramount prerequisites for practical applications of 2D TMD-based photodetectors. Here, we demonstrated all-solution-processed broadband photodetectors based on the wafer-scale perovskite quantum dots (PQDs)/MoS2 through light management via the monochromatization effect of the PQDs. The photodetectors exhibited broadband photodetection behavior that retained high photocurrents over a wide spectral range (254, 365, and 532 nm) by enhancing the photoresponse in the UV region through light management via the monochromatization effect of the PQDs. This intriguing strategy was proven with (i) electrical isolation realized by inserting an Al2O3 insulator between the PQDs and MoS2 and (ii) alteration of the PQD density. The rational nanohybrid-based photodetectors also exhibited superb air stability and exceptional bending durability.
