Description
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of detection, in particular to a detection unit, an ultra-wideband light detector and a detection method.
Background
The optical detector can convert an optical signal into an electrical signal, and further detect the optical power incident on the surface of the optical detector. The ultra-wideband photodetector can simultaneously detect electromagnetic wave radiation of different wave bands, such as ultraviolet, visible light, infrared and even terahertz waves, and has very important functions in a plurality of fields such as infrared imaging, remote sensing, environment monitoring, astronomical detection, spectral analysis and the like. However, due to the limitation of photosensitive materials, the current optical detector can only work in a specific waveband, the ultra-wide spectrum detection at the present stage is realized by integrating detection methods of different wavebands and ensuring that all parts work synchronously, and the biggest problem of the method is that the device structure is very complicated and is difficult to be applied to practice. Therefore, ultra-wideband optical detection from terahertz to ultraviolet by using a single device becomes a research hotspot at present.
Based on WSe, subject to the size of the material's own band gap2(see Kim H S, Chauhan K R, Kim J, ethyl. Flexible variable amplitude oxide for branched band transparent photodectector [ J]Applied Physics Letters,2017,110(10):101907.), Bi single crystal (see Yao J D, Shao J M, YangG W.ultra-broad and high-responsiveness photodetectors base on biosmuthfilmat room temperature[J].Scientific Reports,2015,5:12320.)，MoS2(see Xie Y, Zhang B, Wang S, et al. ultrabroadband MoS2Photodetector with Spectral Response from445 to 2717nm[J]Advanced Materials,2017,29(17): 1605972) and black phosphorus (see Xie Y, Zhang B, Wang S, et al2Photodetector with Spectral Responsefrom 445 to 2717nm[J]The detectors of Advanced Materials,2017,29(17): 1605972) can only realize broadband detection of ultraviolet to infrared bands mostly, and are difficult to cover terahertz bands. Graphene and topological insulators have a dirac cone energy band structure and are considered as pets for realizing ultra-wideband optical detection. Unfortunately, for graphene, the light absorption of single-layer graphene is only 2.3%, which makes the responsivity of graphene detector only a few mV/W (CN 107104167 a). For topological insulators, only the surface has a dirac cone structure, and the problem of low absorption is also faced. In addition, the zero band gap structure enables the light detection dark current based on graphene and a topological insulator to be large, and the signal-to-noise ratio of the device is seriously influenced. Despite the existence of Graphene heterojunction (see high selectivity, Gate-Tunable, from-Temperature Mid-isolated photon depletion site on Graphene-Bi)2Se3Heterostructure), topological insulator heterojunction (see Yao, j.; shao, j.; wang, y.; zhao, z.; yang, G.ultra-broad and hightresponse of the Bi2Te3-Si heterojunction and its applications a photoresist detector from temperature in research environment, nanoscale 2015,7,12535 and 12541), and graphene detectors with three-dimensional microtube structure (CN107394001A), which either require additional bias or introduce a relatively complicated fabrication process, both of which restrict the practical application of the device. In summary, an ultra-wide spectrum detector with a detection bandwidth covering from terahertz to ultraviolet needs to be further researched.

Detailed Description
In order to make the objects, technical solutions and advantages of the present invention more apparent, the following description of the embodiments of the present invention is provided with reference to the accompanying drawings, and it should be noted that, in the case of conflict, the embodiments and features of the embodiments in the present application may be arbitrarily combined with each other.
Please refer to fig. 1 and fig. 2, which are schematic views illustrating an ultra-wideband photodetector according to a first embodiment of the present invention. As shown in fig. 1 and 2, the detector comprises a detection unit comprising NbS and a detection circuit 11 for collecting data of the detection unit3 A crystal plate 1 and electrodes respectively arranged on NbS3The two ends of the crystal wafer 1 in the length direction form ohmic contact with the crystal wafer, and the two electrodes are electrically connected with the detection circuit 11 respectively. Therefore, the detector can convert the light irradiated on the detector into an electric signal, and the electric signal is read by the detection circuit 11, so that ultra-wideband light detection is realized.
First, NbS3Crystal plate 1, made of NbS3The crystals are formed in long-strip sheets. NbS3Is a typical quasi-one-dimensional semiconductor material with rich physical properties such as Peierls phase transition and charge density wave. In recent years, low dimensional materials with unique physical properties have become a focus of research, which also opens up the field of research for new ultra-wideband detection methods. At present, terahertz detection research based on low-dimensional materials mostly focuses on two-dimensional materials such as graphene and black phosphorus. In addition to these materials, there are many quasi-one-dimensional materials to be explored, such as NbS described above3. However, currently for NbS3The research on the terahertz wave is mostly focused on the crystal structure, the energy band structure and the charge density wave phase change characteristic, and few researches on a photoelectric detection method and even a terahertz detection method are carried out.
As shown in fig. 1 and 2, the two electrodes are two metal electrodes made of the same material and respectively provided with an active electrode 2 and a drain electrode 3, wherein the source electrode 2 and the drain electrode 3 are both in the form of thin plates and respectively provided on NbS3Upper surface of the crystal plate 1 and NbS3The crystalline plate 1 forms a good ohmic contact. Thus, the NbS3The crystal plate 1 and two electrodes are fixed to form NbS3-a heterojunction of metal ". Meanwhile, the source electrode 2 and the drain electrode 3 are electrically connected to the detection circuit 11 through leads (not shown), respectively, to form a loop so as to connect NbS to each other3The electrical signal generated by the crystal plate 1 is transmitted to the detection circuit 11 for its measurement.
In addition, the detector comprises a substrate 4 for supporting the detecting unit, the substrate 4 is in the shape of a thin plate, and the NbS is3The crystal plate 1 is fixed on the upper end surface of a substrate 4, the substrate 4 can provide stable mechanical support for the detector, and the material of the substrate includes but is not limited to sapphire, Si/SiO2Quartz, glass or mica, in this example sapphire.
Therefore, the detector is simple to manufacture and relatively low in cost. And the detection method is simple and quick. Specifically, the detection method mainly comprises the following steps: fixed detector, illumination detector and acquisition detection circuit 11 data. During detection, the substrate of the detector needs to be fixed on a stable and reliable optical translation table, so that the substrate can face the light. Next, the light source is turned on so that its rays 10 can be focused on "NbS" through the optical path3Heterojunction of-metal ", i.e. the light spot falls on NbS3On the crystal plate 1, the diameter value of the light spot is smaller than NbS3The length of the crystal plate 1 is 1-2mm, usually the size of the light spot in the laboratory is selected to be 1-2mm, so that the light spot can only fall on NbS3One part of the wafer 1, which cannot cover the entire NbS3A crystalline plate 1. At this time, under illumination, NbS3The temperature of the crystal material rises to generate the photo-thermoelectric effect, so that obvious current is generated within a few milliseconds, the current intensity depends on the power of electromagnetic waves, and the photocurrent in a loop linearly increases along with the increase of the power of the electromagnetic waves; it is also understood that the light exposure causes a temperature difference across the detection unit, which temperature difference causes a potential difference across it that is proportional to the light intensity. Finally, the potential difference can be amplified and read out through the detection circuit 11, and ultra-wideband optical detection can be achieved. Therefore, the detection response is less than 10 milliseconds, the response is quick, the response is sensitive, meanwhile, the ultra-wide detection bandwidth is achieved, the band from ultraviolet to terahertz can be covered, and the application is wide.
Please refer to fig. 3, which is a diagram illustrating an ultra-wideband optical detector according to a second embodiment of the present invention. The detector comprises a detection unit and a detection circuit for collecting data of the detection unit, wherein the detection unit comprises NbS3Crystal wafer 1 and electrode, compared with the detector of the first embodiment, the two electrodes of the first embodiment are two metal electrodes with different materials, i.e. the source electrode 2 and the drain electrode 3 have different materials, so that the detection unit forms two different "NbS" electrodes3-a heterojunction of metal ". In addition, a coupling antenna can be adopted at the electrode to improve the absorption.
Therefore, the detector should select a light spot with a size much larger than that of the NbS during the detection process3The length of the crystal wafer 1 enables light to irradiate the whole detection unit, and the Fermi energy levels at two ends of the detection unit are different due to different materials of metal electrodes at the two ends, so that Seebeck coefficients at the two ends are different. The photoelectric effect is generated under illumination, the photoelectric effect can generate obvious current within a few milliseconds, the current intensity depends on the power of electromagnetic waves, the photocurrent in a loop is linearly increased along with the increase of the power of the electromagnetic waves, and the data can be read out through a detection circuit to realize ultra-wideband optical detection.
Please refer to fig. 4 to fig. 6, which are schematic views of an ultra-wideband photodetector according to a third embodiment of the present invention. Compared with the detector of the first embodiment, the detection unit further comprises a gate dielectric layer 5, a gate electrode 6 and an antenna, wherein the two electrodes are a source electrode 2 and a drain electrode 3.
Specifically, the cap gate dielectric layer 5 is laid on the NbS3The upper surface of the heterojunction formed by the crystal plate 1 and the two electrodes, and the gate dielectric layer 5 include but are not limited to SiO2、Al2O3、HfO2Or hexagonal boron nitride, the gate dielectric layer 5 of this embodiment is made of SiO2. As far as the gate electrode 6 is concerned, it is also in the form of a thin plate, which is deposited on top of the gate dielectric 5 and is situated at NbS3In the center of the crystal plate 1, the gate electrode 6 can gate the detection unit through the gate dielectric layer. In addition, both the source electrode 2 and the gate electrode 6 are provided with antennas, which in turn comprise a first antenna 7 arranged on the source electrode 2 and a second antenna 7 arranged on the gate electrodeThe second antenna 8, the first antenna 7 and the second antenna 8 on the antenna 6 are all metal pieces, and the metal pieces and the butterfly antenna are formed by the two antennas and can be coupled under the condition of power-on. The antenna is not limited to the bowtie antenna, but may be a helical antenna or a log periodic antenna.
