AI Technical Summary
Existing organic photodetectors have a much slower response speed than traditional inorganic photodetectors. They also have complex structures, require stringent fabrication conditions, and require a long diffusion process to form photoexcitons after the electron or hole transport layer absorbs light in the detection band.
By employing a light field control approach, and selecting electron transport layers and hole transport layers that absorb very little light in the target wavelength band, the main light absorption location is limited to the photosensitive layer, actively suppressing the long-distance diffusion process of photogenerated excitons. High-mobility organic materials such as Rubrene, TAPC, C70, C60, and BCP are used to fabricate an ultrafast response organic photodetector with a bulk heterojunction structure.
It achieves sub-nanosecond response speed and a maximum bandwidth of 970 MHz in the red light band, reduces the carrier transport time inside the device, is suitable for flexible substrates, and can meet various application requirements.
