Gate tunable self-powered few-layer black phosphorus broadband photodetector
Literature Information
Xiaofei Guo
Utilizing the unique gate induced giant stark effect in few-layer black phosphorus (BP), we theoretically propose a broadband photodetector device based on pure few-layer BP using atomic first-principles calculations. By applying a vertical gate voltage in the few-layer BP, the intrinsic inversion symmetry of the system can be broken. We found that the photocurrent can be generated via the photogalvanic (or photovoltaic) effect (PGE) without the need for an external bias voltage, which means the gated few-layer BP photodetector is self-powered and the dark current can be greatly suppressed. Most importantly, due to the giant stark effect of the gated few-layer BP, the photodetection range can be well controlled and further enlarged from the mid-infrared range (MIR) to the far-infrared range (FIR). Furthermore, the few-layer BP based photodetector device also presents high polarization sensitivity with extinction ratios up to 104 and a large anisotropic photoresponse. Our numerical findings pave a feasible way for the few-layer BP's novel application in self-powered and well-controlled broadband photodetectors.

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics (PCCP) is an international journal co-owned by 19 physical chemistry and physics societies from around the world. This journal publishes original, cutting-edge research in physical chemistry, chemical physics and biophysical chemistry. To be suitable for publication in PCCP, articles must include significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry; this is the most important criterion that reviewers and Editors will judge against when evaluating submissions. The journal has a broad scope and welcomes contributions spanning experiment, theory, computation and data science. Topical coverage includes spectroscopy, dynamics, kinetics, statistical mechanics, thermodynamics, electrochemistry, catalysis, surface science, quantum mechanics, quantum computing and machine learning. Interdisciplinary research areas such as polymers and soft matter, materials, nanoscience, energy, surfaces/interfaces, and biophysical chemistry are welcomed if they demonstrate significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry. Joined experimental/theoretical studies are particularly appreciated when complementary and based on up-to-date approaches.
