Abstract

The in-plane anisotropy of transition metal trichalcogenides (MX3) has a significant impact on the molding of materials and MX3 is a perfect choice for polarized photodetectors. In this study, the crystal structure, optical and optoelectronic anisotropy of one kind of quasi-one-dimensional (1D) semiconductors, ZrSe3, are systematically investigated through experiments and theoretical studies. The ZrSe3-based photodetector shows impressive wide spectral response from ultraviolet (UV) to near infrared (NIR) and exhibits great optoelectrical properties with photoresponsivity of 11.9 mA·W-1 and detectivity of ~106 at 532 nm. Moreover, the dichroic ratio of ZrSe3-based polarized photodetector is around 1.1 at 808 nm. This study suggests that ZrSe3 has potential in optoelectronic applications and polarization detectors.
