Description
Summary:Self-powered photodetectors which operate without external power sources hold immense promise in future photodetection systems. To achieve high-performance self-powered optoelectronic devices, efficient electron-hole pair separation is critical to generate high photocurrents. In this work, we successfully synthesized semiconducting graphene nanoribbons (GNRs) with a direct bandgap of 1.80 eV and employed them to construct a high-performance GNR&#x002F;Al<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub>&#x002F;IGZO heterostructure photodetector. The built-in electric field in the heterojunctions enables this photodetector to exhibit remarkable performance, showing a responsivity of up to 68 mA&#x002F;W, a detectivity of 8.34 &#x00D7; 10<sup>10</sup> Jones, and rapid response times of 21&#x002F;20 ms at zero bias. Furthermore, the photodetector features a wide spectral detection range of 405 to 1550 nm. These results highlight the promising potential of GNR&#x002F;IGZO p-n heterojunction-based self-powered photodetectors in optoelectronic applications.
