摘要:

二维半导体中强的多体相互作用导致激子-激子湮灭。预计该过程将导致产生未结合的高能载流子。在这里,我们报告了一个非常规的光响应的范德华异质结器件产生有效的EEA。我们的异质结构,这是由单层过渡金属二硫属化物(TMD),六方氮化硼(hBN),和几层石墨烯,表现出光电流时,光激发载流子具有足够的能量,以克服高能势垒的hBN。有趣的是,我们发现,该设备具有适度的光电流量子效率,即使当半导体TMD层在其地面激子共振激发,尽管高激子结合能和大的传输势垒。使用从头计算,我们表明,EEA产生高能量的电子和空穴与不均匀分布的能量取决于散射条件。我们的研究结果突出了EEA在确定二维半导体光电子器件的光响应中的主导作用。

英文摘要:

Strong many-body interactions in two-dimensional (2D) semiconductors give rise to efficient exciton-exciton annihilation (EEA). This process is expected to result in the generation of unbound high energy carriers. Here, we report an unconventional photoresponse of van der Waals heterostructure devices resulting from efficient EEA. Our heterostructures, which consist of monolayer transition metal dichalcogenide (TMD), hexagonal boron nitride (hBN), and few-layer graphene, exhibit photocurrent when photoexcited carriers possess sufficient energy to overcome the high energy barrier of hBN. Interestingly, we find that the device exhibits moderate photocurrent quantum efficiency even when the semiconducting TMD layer is excited at its ground exciton resonance despite the high exciton binding energy and large transport barrier. Using ab initio calculations, we show that EEA yields highly energetic electrons and holes with unevenly distributed energies depending on the scattering condition. Our findings highlight the dominant role of EEA in determining the photoresponse of 2D semiconductor optoelectronic devices.
