Graphene photodetectors lacking a gain mechanism cannot achieve high responsivity
[0004] Recent studies have shown that graphene composite photodetectors use the trap effect to provide a gain mechanism to achieve high responsivity (see Fang, Hehai; Hu, Weida. Photogating in Low Dimensional Photodetectors. Advanced Science, 2017, 4(12): 1700323.), however light absorption depends on semiconductor materials rather than graphene, so the absorption spectrum is limited to a narrow fixed band of light-absorbing materials
The interface contact problem has always been a challenge for heterojunction devices. Interface defects can lead to slow response time and uncontrollable defects.
These have limited the further development of high-gain photodetectors

Abstract

The invention discloses a broadband photoelectric detector based on a graphene homojunction and a preparation method of the broadband photoelectric detector. The detector comprises a substrate, a graphene strip and electrodes, wherein the graphene strip covers the substrate, the electrodes are two metal electrodes respectively arranged above two ends of the graphene strip, and the surface of the substrate comprises channels which are periodically arranged in parallel. The preparation method comprises the following steps: etching a silicon-silicon oxide-silicon substrate to form the periodic parallel channels; preparing a graphene film and transferring the graphene film to the substrate; then respectively depositing metals at two ends of the graphene film to form the metal electrodes; and finally striping the graphene film.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of photoelectric detection, in particular to a graphene homojunction-based broadband photodetector and a preparation method thereof. Background technique [0002] Graphene is a very attractive material for broadband light detection in hyperspectral imaging and sensing systems due to its zero bandgap, with absorption ranging from ultraviolet to far infrared. [0003] However, the low light absorption rate (2.3%) and short carrier lifetime (1 ps) of graphene lead to the extremely low quantum efficiency of graphene, which has been a challenge for its application in optoelectronic devices. The quantum efficiency of photodetectors using graphene itself as a light-absorbing material is very low. Patent 201510825269.8 "Photodetectors based on graphene thin films and their preparation methods" discloses a photovoltaic graphene photodetector based on graphene back-gate transistors , using the built-in electric field...
