摘要 | Photodetectors that can simultaneously exhibit high gain, fast response, and low dark current are of significant value in modern optoelectronic systems. However, the recently reported photovoltage-driven phototransistors are encountering certain challenges to meet the above requirement. In this work, a "photo-driven" semi-metal-semiconductor field-effect transistor (photo-sMESFET), based on graphene/silicon-on-insulator hybrid structure, is proposed and demonstrated to realize the synchronous optimization of gain, response speed, and dark current. Taking advantage of the unique semimetal characteristics of graphene, a high-quality Schottky junction between graphene and silicon is produced, which can greatly deplete the silicon channel and suppress dark current. After illumination, the photovoltage at graphene-silicon interface efficiently shrinks the depletion layer and tremendously enhances the channel conductance. Combined with the high transconductance of the silicon channel, the photo-sMESFET exhibits a gain of more than 10(4), a fast response time (tau) of 3 mu s, and a low dark current (J(d)) of 2.5 mu A. Furthermore, the figure of merit, GTD=(Gainx tau)/Jd\[{\rm{GTD}} = ({\rm{Gain}}{\bm{ \times }}\tau )/\sqrt {{J_d}} \], evaluating the comprehensive performance on photodetectors, is up to 8 x 10(8) A(1/2) cm s(-1), which is superior to the counterparts of graphene-based photodetectors. The results presented leverage a new detection strategy based on the semimetal-semiconductor photovoltaic effect. |
