Abstract
Colloidal quantum dot/organic hybrid materials approach offer a path toward engineering solution-processed photodetectors with extended spectral responsivity in the infrared. We demonstrate this approach in the technologically important thermal infrared region of mid-wavelength infrared, utilizing a solution blend of Ag2Se colloidal quantum dots and [6,6]-phenyl-C61-butyric acid methyl ester (PCBM). We report on the device fabrication and their optical, electrical, and optoelectronic properties. At room temperature, a responsivity of 0.2 mA/W was measured under 5 μm irradiation and 5 V bias. The new hybrid optoelectronic film demonstrated in this study brings the advantage of cost-effectiveness and greater fabrication versatility than the single crystal or epitaxial semiconductors that comprise today’s infrared technologies.
