Significant enhancement of photoresponsive characteristics and mobility of MoS2-based transistors through hybridization with perovskite CsPbBr3 quantum dots

초록

Inorganic perovskite CsPbBr3 quantum dots (QDs) are potential nanoscale photosensitizers; moreover, two-dimensional (2-D) molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) has been intensively studied for application in the active layers of optoelectronic devices. In this study, heterostructures of 2D-monolayered MoS2 with zero-dimensional functionalized CsPbBr3 QDs were prepared, and their nanoscale optical characteristics were investigated. The effect of n-type doping on the MoS2 monolayer after hybridization with perovskite CsPbBr3 QDs was observed using laser confocal microscope photoluminescence (PL) and Raman spectra. Field-effect transistors (FETs) using MoS2 and the MoS2-CsPbBr3 QDs hybrid were also fabricated, and their electrical and photoresponsive characteristics were investigated in terms of the charge transfer effect. For the MoS2-CsPbBr3 QDs-based FETs, the field effect mobility and photoresponsivity upon light irradiation were enhanced by similar to 4 times and a dramatic similar to 17 times, respectively, compared to the FET prepared without the perovskite QDs and without light irradiation. It is noteworthy that the photoresponsivity of the MoS2-CsPbBr3 QDs-based FETs significantly increased with increasing light power, which is completely contrary to the behavior observed in previous studies of MoS2-based FETs. The increased mobility and significant enhancement of the photoresponsivity can be attributed to the n-type doping effect and efficient energy transfer from CsPbBr3 QDs to MoS2. The results indicate that the optoelectronic characteristics of MoS2-based FETs can be significantly improved through hybridization with photosensitive perovskite CsPbBr3 QDs.
