Epitaxial Growth of Large-Grain NiSe Films by Solid-State Reaction for High-Responsivity Photodetector Arrays.

Film-based photodetectors have shown superiority for the fabrication of photodetector arrays, which are desired for integrating photodetectors into sensing and imaging systems, such as image sensors. But they usually possess a low responsivity due to low carrier mobility of the film consisting of nanocrystals. Large-grain semiconductor films are expected to fabricate superior-responsivity photodetector arrays.

High- and Reproducible-Performance Graphene/II-VI Semiconductor Film Hybrid Photodetectors.

High- and reproducible-performance photodetectors are critical to the development of many technologies, which mainly include one-dimensional (1D) nanostructure based and film based photodetectors. The former suffer from a huge performance variation because the performance is quite sensitive to the synthesis microenvironment of 1D nanostructure. Herein, we show that the graphene/semiconductor film hybrid photodetectors not only possess a high performance but also have a reproducible performance.
