Abstract
Broadband photodetectors have attracted substantial attention in recent years. The ternary chalcogenide Ta2NiSe5 is a layered material with a direct narrow-band gap (Eg ~ 0.33 eV) which possesses greatly potential to broadband photodetectors. Here, high-quality bulk Ta2NiSe5 was synthesized by Chemical Vapor Transport (CVT) method. We demonstrate a photodetector based on exfoliated Ta2NiSe5 nanoflake, which exhibits a broadband photo-response from 405 nm to 4300 nm. Meanwhile, its main characteristics are superior to other typical 2D materials: high responsivity ~198.1 A W−1 at 1350 nm and ultrafast response time of ~27.4 µs. Long-time photocurrent reproducibility shows that the photodetector has excellent stability under atmosphere. Furthermore, the scanning photocurrent mapping reveals the photoconductive mechanism of Ta2NiSe5 photodetector. In addition, the anisotropic ratio of the photocurrent is ~1.46. The broadband photodetection, high responsivity, anisotropic and environmental stability achieved simultaneously in Ta2NiSe5 photodetector, which are promising for neotype electronics and optoelectronics field.
