Hybrid structures of two-dimensional (2D) materials and quantum dots (QDs) are particularly interesting in the field of nanoscale optoelectronic devices because QDs are efficient light absorbers and can inject photocarriers into thin layers of 2D transition-metal dichalcogenides, which have high carrier mobility. In this study, we present a heterostructure that consists of a monolayer of tungsten diselenide (ML WSe₂) covered by nitrogen-doped graphene QDs (N-GQDs). The improved photol

Various functional devices including p-n forward, backward, and Zener diodes are realized with a van der Waals heterostructure that are composed of molybdenum disulfide (MoS₂) and molybdenum ditelluride (MoTe₂) by changing the thickness of the MoTe₂ layer and common gate bias. In addition, the available negative differential transconductance of the heterostructure is utilized to fabricate a many-valued logic device that exhibits three different logic states ( i.e

Photoluminescence (PL) from monolayer MoS2 has been modulated using plasma treatment or thermal annealing. However, a systematic way of understanding the underlying PL modulation mechanism has not yet been achieved. By introducing PL and Raman spectroscopy, we analyze that the PL modulation by laser irradiation is associated with structural damage and associated oxygen adsorption on the sample in ambient conditions. Three distinct behaviors were observed according to the laser irradiation time:

Monolayer tungsten disulfide (WS₂) has emerged as an active material for optoelectronic devices due to its quantum yield of photoluminescence. Despite the enormous research about physical characteristics of monolayer WS₂, the defect-related Raman scattering has been rarely studied. Here, we report the correlation of topography and Raman scattering in monolayer WS₂ by using tip-enhanced resonance Raman spectroscopy and reveal defect-related Raman modes denoted as

Hybrid organic–inorganic lead halide perovskites have recorded unprecedented improvement in efficiency as fourth-generation photovoltaic materials. Recently, they have attracted enormous interest in nonlinear optics stemming basically from their excellent optoelectronic properties. Here, we investigate multiphoton absorption (MPA) in high-quality MAPbX 3 (MA = CH 3 NH 3 and X = Cl, Br, I) bulk single crystals synthesized by an inverse-temperature crystallization (ITC) method. The two-photon abso

We propose a semiconductor-insulator-semiconductor (SIS) heterojunction diode consisting of monolayer (1-L) MoS2, hexagonal boron nitride (h-BN), and epitaxial p-GaN that can be applied to high-performance nanoscale optoelectronics. The layered materials of 1-L MoS2 and h-BN, grown by chemical vapor deposition, were vertically stacked by a wet-transfer method on a p-GaN layer. The final structure was verified by confocal photoluminescence and Raman spectroscopy. Current-voltage (I-V) measurement

We study the electronic and optoelectronic properties of a broken-gap heterojunction composed of SnSe₂ and MoTe₂ with gate-controlled junction modes. Owing to the interband tunneling current, our device can act as an Esaki diode and a backward diode with a peak-to-valley current ratio approaching 5.7 at room temperature. Furthermore, under an 811 nm laser irradiation the heterostructure exhibits a photodetectivity of up to 7.5 × 10¹² Jones. In addition, to harnes

Monolayer (1L) transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDCs) are promising materials for nanoscale optoelectronic devices because of their direct band gap and wide absorption range (ultraviolet to infrared). However, 1L-TMDCs cannot be easily utilized for practical optoelectronic device applications (e.g., photodetectors, solar cells, and light-emitting diodes) because of their extremely low optical quantum yields (QYs). In this investigation, a high-gain 1L-MoS₂ photodetector was successf

Abstract We demonstrated an effective poly(p-chloro-xylylene) (Parylene-C) encapsulation method for MAPbI 3 solar cells. By structural and optical analysis, we confirmed that Parylene-C efficiently slowed the decomposition reaction in MAPbI 3 . From a water permeability test with different encapsulating materials, we found that Parylene-C-coated MAPbI 3 perovskite was successfully passivated from reaction with water, owing to the hydrophobic behavior of Parylene-C. As a result, the Parylene-C-co

We present a novel metal-insulator-semiconductor (MIS) diode consisting of graphene, hexagonal BN, and monolayer MoS2 for application in ultrathin nanoelectronics. The MIS heterojunction structure was fabricated by vertically stacking layered materials using a simple wet chemical transfer method. The stacking of each layer was confirmed by confocal scanning Raman spectroscopy and device performance was evaluated using current versus voltage (I-V) and photocurrent measurements. We clearly observe

We demonstrate the pulsed voltage tunable multileveled resistive switching (RS) across a promising transparent energy material of (C₄H₉NH₃)₂PbBr₄. The X-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscopy results confirm the growth of (001) plane-orientated nanostructures of (C₄H₉NH₃)₂PbBr₄ with an average size of ∼360 nm. The device depicts optical transmittance higher than 70% in the visi

Abstract The improvement of the light extraction efficiency (LEE) of a conventional InGaN blue light‐emitting diode (LED) by the incorporation of one‐dimensional ZnO sub‐microrods is reported. The LEE is improved by 31% through the wave‐guiding effect of ZnO sub‐microrods compared to LEDs without the sub‐microrods. Different types of ZnO microrods/sub‐microrods are produced using a simple non‐catalytic wet chemical growth method at a low temperature (90 °C) on an indium‐tin‐oxide (ITO) top conta

Thin layer two-dimensional (2-D) transition metal dichalcogenide (TMD) materials have distinctive optoelectronic properties. Therefore, several methods including mechanical exfoliation, chemical vapor deposition, and liquid-phase exfoliation have been attempted to obtain uniform TMDs. However, such methods do not easily produce high-quality few-layer TMDs with high speed. Here, we report the successful fabrication of few-layer TMD materials by femtosecond laser irradiation. It shows that TMD sam
