A multimode photodetector with polarization-dependent near-infrared responsivity using the tunable split-dual gates control

Summary: As the limited copyright densities in atomic thin materials can be well controlled by electrostatic gates, p-n junctions based on two-dimensional materials in the coplanar split-gate configuration can work as photodetectors or light-emitting diodes.These coplanar gates can be fabricated in a simple one-step lithography process and are frequently used in hybrid integration with on-chip optical structures.However, the polarization-dependent responsivity of such a SCOOP configuration is less explored in the near-infrared Pre-Natals band, and a clear understanding is still missing.

Here we fabricate near-infrared tunable multiple modes twisted bilayer graphene photodetector enabled by the coplanar split-gate control and confirm that the photothermoelectric effect governs the photovoltage mechanism of the p-n junction mode.Our study also elucidates that the discrepancy of the responsivities under different linear polarizations is owing to the different cavity modes and provides a valuable example for designing chip-integrated optoelectronic devices.
