This letter discusses the design of bipolar phototransistors based on wide bandgap organic-inorganic semiconductor bilayer structure for broadband optical detection. By carefully selecting materials and matching energy levels, the phototransistors can detect light from ultraviolet to near-infrared. Through field effect regulation, dark current is suppressed and the phototransistors exhibit high normalized detectivity.
In this letter, bipolar phototransistors based on wide bandgap organic-inorganic semiconductor bilayer structure are designed for broadband optical detection. Through purposeful material selection and band matching, the energy level difference of heterojunction interface is obtained to promote photo-induced charge separation and realize optical detection from ultraviolet to near-infrared. Via the suppression of dark current by field effect regulation, the phototransistors demonstrate high normalized detectivity (10(14) - 10(15) jones). The diversity of organic semiconductor materials provides a wide range of choices to realize broadband detection by the band matching with inorganic semiconductor materials.
