Self‐Powered Nanoscale Photodetectors

Open access

Abstract

Novel self‐powered nanoscale photodetectors that can work without an external power source, which have great application potential in next‐generation nanodevices that operate wirelessly and independently, are being widely studied. This review aims to give a comprehensive summary of the state‐of‐the‐art research results on self‐powered nanoscale photodetectors. An introduction of recent progress on Schottky junction photodetectors is provided. Two types of Schottky junctions are discussed in detail: metal–semiconductor and semiconductor–graphene junctions. Next, recent developments of p–n junction photodetectors are highlighted, including homojunction and heterojunction photodetectors. Then, piezo‐phototronic effect enhanced photodetection performances of Schottky junctions and p–n junctions are discussed. Then, significant results on the photoelectrochemical‐cell‐based photodetector and integrated self‐powered nanosystem are presented, followed by a systematic comparison of different types of photodetectors. Finally, a summary of the previous results is given, and the major challenges that need to be addressed in the future are outlined. The hope is that this review can provide valuable insights into the current status of self‐powered photodetectors and spur new structure and device designs to further enhance photodetection performance.

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.
