Bandgap Engineering of Ternary ε‐InSe 1− x S x and ε‐InSe 1− y Te y Single Crystals for High‐Performance Electronics and Optoelectronics
Advanced Optical Materials(2022)
Abstract
Alloying offers an efficient strategy to tune the bandgap of two‐dimensional (2D) layered materials, enabling them to tailor the optical and electronic attributes without compromising the structural integrity. Here the authors report the synthesis of a series of ternary InSe 1− x S x and InSe 1− y Te y alloys possessing ε‐polymorph and single crystalline structure. Both the photoluminescence and Raman spectra of multilayer InSe 1− x S x and InSe 1− y Te y demonstrate that an effective modulation of bandgap and concomitant optical properties is achieved by tuning the alloy compositions, consistent with density functional theory calculations. Field‐effect transistors fabricated from the multilayer alloys on SiO 2 dielectric substrates display electron field‐effect mobilities of up to ≈127 cm 2 V −1 s −1 . All the multilayer alloy devices show a high current on/off ratio of ≈10 8 . When fabricated into photodetectors, multilayer InSe 0.9 S 0.1 and InSe 0.9 Te 0.1 exhibit maximum photoresponsivities of 5.4 × 10 5 and 7.7 × 10 4 A W −1 , respectively. Moreover, the InSe 1− y Te y alloys are able to expand the photoresponse range into 1250 nm due to the bandgap narrowing upon Te alloying. This work sheds light on rationally designing 2D layered InSe with tunable bandgaps via alloying, and demonstrates their promising applications in electronics and optoelectronics.
