Infrared photodetectors based on graphene van der Waals heterostructures

We propose and evaluate the graphene layer (GL) infrared photodetectors (GLIPs) based on the van der Waals (vdW) heterostructures with the radiation absorbing GLs. The operation of the GLIPs is associated with the electron photoexcitation from the GL valence band to the continuum states above the inter-GL barriers (either via tunneling or direct transitions to the continuum states). Using the developed device model, we calculate the photodetector characteristics as functions of the GL-vdW heterostructure parameters. We show that due to a relatively large efficiency of the electron photoexcitation and low capture efficiency of the electrons propagating over the barriers in the inter-GL layers, GLIPs should exhibit the elevated photoelectric gain and detector responsivity as well as relatively high detectivity. The possibility of high-speed operation, high conductivity, transparency of the GLIP contact layers, and the sensitivity to normally incident IR radiation provides additional potential advantages in comparison with other IR photodetectors. In particular, the proposed GLIPs can compete with unitravelling-carrier photodetectors.     

Ultrafast interlayer photocarrier transfer in graphene–MoSe_2 van der Waals heterostructure

We report the fabrication and photocarrier dynamics in graphene–MoSe_2 heterostructures. The samples were fabricated by mechanical exfoliation and manual stacking techniques. Ultrafast laser measurements were performed on the heterostructure and MoSe_2 monolayer samples. By comparing the results, we conclude that photocarriers injected in MoSe_2 of the heterostructure transfer to graphene on an ultrafast time scale. The carriers in graphene alter the optical absorption coefficient of MoSe_2. These results illustrate the potential applications of this material in optoelectronic devices.     

二维平面和范德瓦耳斯异质结的可控制备与光电应用

自石墨烯被发现以来,二维材料因其优异的特性获得了持续且深入的探索与发展,以石墨烯、六方氮化硼、过渡金属硫化物、黑磷等为代表的二维材料相关研究层出不穷.随着二维新材料制备与应用探索的不断发展,单一材料性能的不足逐渐凸显,研究者们开始考虑采用平面拼接和层间堆垛所产生的协同效应来弥补单一材料的不足,甚至获得一些新的性能.利用二维材料晶格结构的匹配构建异质结,实现特定的功能化,或利用范德瓦耳斯力进行堆垛,将不同二维材料排列组合,从而在体系里引入新的自由度,为二维材料的性质研究和实际应用打开了新的窗口.本文从原子制造角度,介绍了二维平面和范德瓦耳斯异质结材料的可控制备和光电应用.首先简要介绍了应用于异质结制备的常见二维材料的分类及异质结的相关概念,然后从原理上分类列举了常用的表征方法,随后介绍了平面和垂直异质结的制备方法,并对其光电性质及器件应用做了简要介绍.最后,对领域内存在的问题进行了讨论,对未来发展方向做出了展望.

Strain drived band aligment transition of the ferromagnetic VS_2/C_3N van der Waals heterostructure

Exploring two-dimensional(2 D) magnetic heterostructures is essential for future spintronic and optoelectronic devices.Herein,using first-principle calculations,stable ferromagnetic ordering and colorful electronic properties are established by constructing the VS_2/C_3 N van der Waals(vdW) heterostructure.Unlike the semiconductive properties with indirect band gaps in both the VS_2 and C_3 N monolayers,our results indicate that a direct band gap with type-Ⅱ band alignment and p-doping characters are realized in the spin-up channel of the VS_2/C_3 N heterostructure,and a typical type-Ⅲband alignment with a broken-gap in the spin-down channel.Furthermore,the band alignments in the two spin channels can be effectively tuned by applying tensile strain.An interchangement between the type-Ⅱ and type-Ⅲ band alignments occurs in the two spin channels,as the tensile strain increases to 4%.The attractive magnetic properties and the unique band alignments could be useful for prospective applications in the next-generation tunneling devices and spintronic devices.     

Observation of magnetoresistance in CrI3/graphene van der Waals heterostructures

Two-dimensional ferromagnetic van der Waals (2D vdW) heterostructures have opened new avenues for creating artificial materials with unprecedented electrical and optical functions beyond the reach of isolated 2D atomic layered materials, and for manipulating spin degree of freedom at the limit of few atomic layers, which empower next-generation spintronic and memory devices. However, to date, the electronic properties of 2D ferromagnetic heterostructures still remain elusive. Here, we report an unambiguous magnetoresistance behavior in CrI₃/graphene heterostructures, with a maximum magnetoresistance ratio of 2.8%. The magnetoresistance increases with increasing magnetic field, which leads to decreasing carrier densities through Lorentz force, and decreases with the increase of the bias voltage. This work highlights the feasibilities of applying two-dimensional ferromagnetic vdW heterostructures in spintronic and memory devices.     

van der Waals PtO2/MoS2 heterostructure verified from first principles

First-principles calculations are used to study the structure and optoelectronic properties of a van der Waals (vdW) heterostructure formed by transition metal dichalcogenide and dioxide monolayers, namely PtO₂/MoS₂. The calculations suggest that a two-dimensional PtO₂ monolayer can be produced by exfoliation from the layered bulk α-PtO₂ and may even survive at high temperature. The PtO₂ monolayer is very closely matched with MoS₂ to form the vdW heterostructure. With its valence-band maximum and conduction-band minimum separated in different layers, this PtO₂/MoS₂ heterostructure is proposed as a type-II heterostructure with strong adsorption of visible light. Consequently, it may be widely applicable in photocatalysis and photovoltaics.

Increase in Axial Compressibility in a Spinning Van der Waals Gas

We investigated the adiabatic compression along the axial direction of a spinning Van der Waals gas by applying theoretical analysis and molecular dynamics (MD) simulations. Based on the analytical results, the rotation-induced compressibility increase effect is significant in a Van der Waals gas, while the attraction term in the Van der Waals equation of states (EOS) contributes significantly to the compressibility increase in a spinning system. We conducted MD simulations to the axial compression of a spinning gas, whose state is far from the ideal gas state, and further demonstrated that the rotation-induced compressibility increase effect in a dense state is robust, implying that such a phenomenon can be detected in experiments under high-energy-density conditions.     

The rise of two-dimensional tellurium for next-generation electronics and optoelectronics

Single-element two-dimensional (2D) tellurium (Te) which possesses an unusual quasi-one-dimensional atomic chain structure is a new member in 2D materials family. 2D Te possesses high carrier mobility, wide tunable bandgap, strong light-matter interaction, better environmental stability, and strong anisotropy, making Te exhibit tremendous application potential in next-generation electronic and optoelectronic devices. However, as an emerging 2D material, the research on fundamental property and device application of Te is still in its infancy. Hence, this review summarizes the most recent research progresses about the new star 2D Te and discusses its future development direction. Firstly, the structural features, basic physical properties, and various preparation methods of 2D Te are systemically introduced. Then, we emphatically summarize the booming development of 2D Te-based electronic and optoelectronic devices including field effect transistors, photodetectors and van der Waals heterostructure photodiodes. Finally, the future challenges, opportunities, and development directions of 2D Te-based electronic and optoelectronic devices are prospected.     

Infrared detection and photon energy up-conversion in graphene layer infrared photodetectors integrated with LEDs based on van der Waals heterostructures: Concept,device model,and characteristics

We propose the concept of the infrared detection and photon energy up-conversion in the devices using the integration of the graphene layer infrared detectors (GLIPs) and the light emitting diodes (LEDs) based on van der Waals (vdW) heterostructures. Using the developed device model of the GLIP-LEDs, we calculate their characteristics. The GLIP-LED devices can operate as the detectors of far- and mid infrared radiation (FIR and MIR) with an electrical output or with near-infrared radiation (NIR) or visible radiation (VIR) output. In the latter case, GLIP-LED devices function as the photon energy up-converters of FIR and MIR to NIR or VIR. The operation of GLIP-LED devices is associated with the injection of the electron photocurrent produced due to the interband absorption of the FIR/MIR photons in the GLIP part into the LED emitting NIR/VIR photons. We calculate the GLIP-LED responsivity and up-conversion efficiency as functions the structure parameters and the energies of the incident FIR/MIR photons and the output NIR/VIR photons. The advantages of the GLs in the vdW heterostructures (relatively high photoexcitation rate from and low capture efficiency into GLs) combined with the reabsorption of a fraction of the NIR/FIR photon flux in the GLIP (which can enable an effective photonic feedback) result in the elevated GLIP-LED device responsivity and up-conversion efficiency. The positive optical feedback from the LED section of the device lead to increasing current injection enabling the appearance of the S-type current-voltage characteristic with a greatly enhanced responsivity near the switching point and current filamentation.

Planar graphene Josephson coupling via van der Waals superconducting contacts

We report on the fabrication and transport characteristics of van der Waals (vdW)-contacted planar Josephson junctions. In a device, two pieces of cleaved 2H-NbSe₂ superconducting flakes and a monolayer graphene sheet serve as the superconducting electrodes and the normal-conducting spacer, respectively. A stack of NbSe₂?graphene?hexagonal-boron-nitride (hBN) heterostructure with clean and flat interfaces was prepared by a dry transfer technique. The outermost hBN layer protected the NbSe₂?graphene?NbSe₂ Josephson junction from chemical contamination during the fabrication processes. The Josephson coupling was confirmed by a periodic modulation of the junction critical current $I_{\text{c}}$ in a perpendicular magnetic field. The temperature dependence of $I_{\text{c}}$ showed long and diffusive Josephson coupling characteristics. The temperature dependence of the superconducting gap, obtained from the multiple Andreev reflection features, followed the Bardeen?Cooper?Schrieffer (BCS) prediction.
