Abstract
High efficiency organic small molecule near-infrared photodetectors (NIR-PDs) based on a lead phthalocyanine/C60 planar heterojunction are demonstrated. The NIR-PDs show a broad-band response that extends to 1100nm. The performance of the NIR-PDs is improved by using CuI as anode buffer layer. The optimized NIR-PD exhibits a response peak at about 900nm with external quantum efficiencies (EQEs) of 19.7% at zero bias and 35.1% at −6V, which are higher than other small molecule NIR-PDs reported. Comparable EQEs of 18.0% at zero bias and 33.2% at −6V are found in the NIR-PD by further using 4,7-diphenyl-1,10-phenanthroline as cathode buffer layer. Meanwhile, the dark current is significantly reduced, which results in a high detectivity of 2.34×1011Jones at zero bias, which is among the highest detectivities reported for organic small-molecule NIR-PDs. Besides, the NIR-PDs show a reliable stability in ambient condition.
