Abstract

Herein, device demonstration based on vertical transport in multilayer α-In2Se3 is reported. Photodetectors realized using a metal/α-In2Se3/indium tin oxide (ITO) vertical junction exhibit clear signature of the band edge in spectral responsivity. The wavelength at 680 nm corresponding to an ultrahigh responsivity of 1000 A W�1 and a detectivity of >1013 cm Hz0.5 W�1 at a bias of 0.5 V. The variation of responsivity and detectivity with optical power density is studied, and a transient response of 20 ms is obtained for the devices (instrument limitation). In addition, an asymmetric barrier height arising out of ITO and Au contacts to a vertical α-In2Se3 junction resulted in a photovoltaic effect with VOC �0.1 V and ISC �0.4 μA under an illumination of 520 nm.
