Infrared Detection Using Transparent and Flexible Field‐Effect Transistor Array with Solution Processable Nanocomposite Channel of Reduced Graphene Oxide and P(VDF‐TrFE)
Abstract
Photodetectors using optically responsive graphene (Gr) or reduced graphene oxide (R‐GO) on rigid substrates have showed promising results for detection of broad band light including infrared (IR). However, there have been only a few reports on Gr or R‐GO photodetectors with new functionalities such as optical transparency and/or flexibility. Herein, a new kind of transparent and flexible IR photodetector is presented using a field‐effect transistor (FET) structure in which an IR‐responsive nanocomposite layer of R‐GO and poly(vinylidenefluoride‐co‐trifluoroethylene) (P(VDF‐TrFE)) is employed as the channel. The IR photodetector exhibits high IR responsivity, stability, and reproducibility under mechanical strain and ambient conditions. In addition, the capability of measuring the distribution of responses from each device in the transparent and flexible nanocomposite FET array under IR radiation from the human body is also demonstrated. Therefore, the development of a flexible IR photodetector with high responsivity, transparency, ease of integration, and stability in an ambient environment is a suitable alternative approach for achieving the stable monitoring of IR in many flexible and transparent electronic systems.

For wearable photodetectors, various materials such as crumpled graphene-AuNPs, ZnO nanostructures, rGO/PVDF-TrFE nanocomposites, MoS2/WS2 heterojunction arrays, Zn2SnO4 NWs, and SnO2 NWs were employed for detection of UV, IR, or other light illumination, based on the principle that light illumination can excite more electrons into the conduction band generating photocurrent.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
