Molybdenum disulfide (MoS) nanoscaled films are deposited on GaAs substrates via magnetron sputtering technique, and MoS/GaAs heterojunctions are fabricated. The lateral photovoltaic effect (LPE) of the fabricated MoS/GaAs heterojunctions is investigated. The results show that a large LPE can be obtained in the MoS/n-GaAs heterojunction. The LPE exhibits a linear dependence on the position of the laser illumination and the considerably high sensitivity of 416.4 mV mm. This sensitivity is much larger than the values in other reported MoS-based devices. Comparatively, the LPE in the MoS/p-GaAs heterojunction is much weaker. The mechanisms to the LPE are unveiled by constructing the energy-band alignment of the MoS/GaAs heterojunctions. The excellent LPE characteristics make MoS films combined with GaAs semiconductors promising candidates for the application of high-performance position-sensitive detectors.
通过磁控溅射技术将二硫化钼(MoS)纳米薄膜沉积在砷化镓(GaAs)衬底上,并制备了MoS/GaAs异质结。对制备的MoS/GaAs异质结的横向光伏效应(LPE)进行了研究。结果表明,在MoS/n-GaAs异质结中可以获得较大的LPE。LPE对激光照射位置呈线性依赖关系,灵敏度高达416.4 mV/mm。该灵敏度远高于其他报道的基于MoS的器件的值。相比之下,MoS/p-GaAs异质结中的LPE要弱得多。通过构建MoS/GaAs异质结的能带排列揭示了LPE的机制。优异的LPE特性使得MoS薄膜与GaAs半导体相结合成为高性能位置敏感探测器应用的有前途的候选材料。
