Abstract
- Achieving broad light absorption and high carrier separation efficiency is crucial for wide‐bandgap semiconductors to enable broadband photodetection applications. Here, amorphous gallium oxide nanosheets feature with broad absorption and spin polarization Wis synthesized, and assembled with graphene and p‐Si, realizing UV‒vis‒NIR photodetection. Extended X‐ray absorption fine structure reveals that a‐GaOx NSs possess lower tetrahedral Ga occupation (10%) compared to crystalline β‐Ga2O3 (50%). UV‒vis‒NIR diffuse reflectance spectra and magnetic hysteresis loops demonstrate broad absorption and weak ferromagnetism of a‐GaOx NSs, respectively. Density functional theory calculation further reveals sub‐gap states and spin polarization in a‐GaOx NSs. Moreover, combined with Mott–Schottky curves, photoluminescence and time‐resolved photoluminescence spectra inferred the effective suppression of carrier recombination via spin polarization of a‐GaOx NSs. The graphene/a‐GaOx NSs/p‐Si photodetector incorporates a back‐to‐back rectifying junction, acquiring a dark current as low as 63 pA. All photogenerated carriers are in the depletion region of the photodetector favouring efficient charge separation. This photodetector exhibits a response time of τrise<60 ms and τfall<120 ms, and high specific detectivity 1013 Jones over 254–1064 nm light. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
