Boosting Visible Light Absorption of Metal-Oxide-Based Phototransistors via Heterogeneous In-Ga-Zn-O and CH3NH3PbI3 Films

초록

To broaden the availability and application of metal-oxide (M-O)based optoelectronic devices, we suggest heterogeneous phototransistors composed of In-Ga-Zn-O (IGZO) and methylammonium lead iodide (CH3NH3PbI3) layers, which act as the amplifier layer (channel layer) and absorption layer, respectively. These heterogeneous phototransistors showed low persistence photocurrent compared with IGZO-only phototransistors and exhibited high photoresponsivity of 61 A/W, photosensitivity of 3.48 x 10(6), detectivity of 9.42 x 10(10) Jones, external quantum efficiency of 154% in an optimized structure, and high photoresponsivity under water exposure via the deposition of silicon dioxide as a passivation layer. On the basis of these electrical results and various analyses, we determined that CH3NH3PbI3 could be activated as a light absorption layer, current barrier, and plasma damage blocking layer, which would serve to widen the range of applications of M-O-based optoelectronic devices with high photoresponsivity and reliability under visible light illumination.
