Ultrahigh and Broad Spectral Photodetectivity of an Organic-Inorganic Hybrid Phototransistor for Flexible Electronics

The creation of new organic-inorganic phototransistors with high and broad spectral photosensitivity is reported. The extended charge transport and photoconductivity between the layers in the bilayer structure results in a notable detectivity of over 10(12) Jones and a linear dynamic range of over 100 dB at a broad spectral bandwidth across the UV-NIR range. Furthermore, the considerably reduced persistent photocurrent effect of In-Ga-Zn-O (IGZO)-based hybrid phototransistors is first demonstrated via an organic-inorganic bilayer approach.
