Nonlocal Response in Infrared Detector with Semiconducting Carbon Nanotubes and Graphdiyne

摘要

Abstract Semiconducting single-walled carbon nanotubes (s-SWNTs) are regarded as an important candidate for infrared (IR) optical detection due to their excellent intrinsic properties. However, the strong binding energy of excitons in s-SWNTs seriously impedes the development of s-SWNTs IR photodetector. This Communication reports an IR photodetector with highly pure s-SWNTs and ???3-graphdiyne. The heterojunctions between the two materials can efficiently separate the photogenerated excitons. In comparison to device fabricated only with s-SWNTs, this IR detector shows a uniform response in the whole channel of the device. The response time is demonstrated to be below 1 ms. The optimal responsivity and detectivity approximately reach 0.4 mA W ?￠????1 and 5 ???? 10 6 cmHz 1/2 W ?￠????1 , respectively.
