文摘Tin selenide(SnSe)has attracted considerable interest recently on account of its low-symmetry lattice structure,great compatibility with key semiconductor technology,and remarkable electrical and optical performance.SnSe-based polarization-sensitive photodetectors show promising application prospects because of their fast response and excellent photoelectric performance.Here,an in-plane anisotropic SnSe nanosheet was synthesized and reported in detail by applying angle-resolved polarized Raman spectroscopy(ARPRS),polarization-resolved optical microscopy(PROM),angle-resolved optical absorption spectroscopy(AROAS),and other crystal structure characterization methods.Moreover,SnSe crystals exhibit superior polarization detection performance with a high anisotropic photocurrent ratio(2.31 at 1064 nm)due to the structure formed by the Van der Waals superposition of covalently bonded atomic layers.Furthermore,SnSe-based photodetectors have high responsivity(9.27 A/W),high detectivity(4.08×10^(10)Jones),and fast response(in the order of nanoseconds).These results suggest a new method for fabricating 2D fast-response polarization-sensitive photodetectors in the future.

文摘Electromagnetically induced transparency(EIT)phenomenon is observed in simple metamaterial which consists of concentric double U-shaped resonators(USRs).The numerical and theoretical analysis reveals that EIT arises from the bright-bright mode coupling.The transmission spectra at different polarization angle of incident light shows that EIT transparency window is polarization sensitive.More interestingly,Fano resonance appears in the transmission spectrum at certain polarization angles.The sharp and asymmetric Fano lineshape is high valuable for sensing.The performance of sensor is investigated and the sensitivity is high up to 327 GHz/RIU.Furthermore,active control of EIT window is realized by incorporating photosensitive silicon.The proposed USR structure is simple and compact,which may find significant applications in tunable integrated devices such as biosensor,filters,and THz modulators.

文摘Broadband,self-power,and polarization-sensitivity are desirable qualities for a photodetector.However,currently few photodetectors can fulfill these requirements simultaneously.Here,we propose a Ti_(3)C_(2)T_(x)(MXene)photodetector that is driven by the photogalvanic effect with impressive performances.A polarization-sensitive photocurrent is generated at zero bias under the illumination of linearly polarized laser light of 1064 nm,with an extinction ratio of 1.11.Meanwhile,a fast response with a 32/28 ms rise/decay time and a large on/off switching ratio of 120 are achieved.Besides,a robust zero-bias photocurrent is also generated in the photodetector under the illumination of 940 and 620 nm light,as well as the white light,showing a broadband photoresponse from the near-infrared to visible.Moreover,quantum transport simulations indicate that the photogalvanic effect plays an important role in the generation of the polarized photocurrent at zero bias due to the broken space inversion symmetry of the stacked few-layer Ti_(3)C_(2)T_(x).Our results shed light on a potential application of the Ti_(3)C_(2)T_(x)–MXene in the low-power photodetection with high performances.

文摘A laser-induced periodic surface structure(LIPSS),which can be easily produced by femtosecond laser ablation,is a unique nanostructure with a visible refractive color that can be controlled by altering its orientation and uniformity,making it suitable for use in colorful marking,camouflage,and anticounterfeiting measures.However,single-mode information camouflage can no longer meet increasingly higher-level security requirements.Therefore,metasurfaces offer revolutionary solutions.In this study,conceptual metasurfaces of pure tungsten are theoretically proposed and verified using hierarchical LIPSS/nanoparticle(NP)nanostructures as meta-atoms.The anisotropy of the LIPSS nanostructure enables polarization-sensitive optical modulation,whereas the spatial configuration,NPs size,and period of LIPSS in the LIPSS/NP meta-atoms provide flexibility for tailoring broadband optical responses.In xpolarization,the LIPSS/NP meta-atom system provides more visible colors and divergent infrared absorption(emission)than in y-polarized and unpolarized modes,paving the way for vividly colorful polarization-sensitive displays and information camouflage in infrared bands.A simplified rendition of the world-famous painting“The Starry Night”by Van Gogh is used as a proof-of-concept.Preliminary experimental results are presented,based on which the feasibility and challenges for laser nanomanufacturing of the proposed conceptual metasurfaces are discussed,aiming to provide inspiration for the development of novel metasurfaces through interdisciplinary studies.

文摘Two-dimensional Dion-Jacobson(DJ)perovskite has garnered significant attention due to its superior responsivity and operation stability.However,efforts are predominantly focused on discovering new organic spacer to synthesize novel perovskites,while material-form-associated light management,which is crucial for enhancing the photodetector’s efficiency,is largely overlooked.Herein,we introduced surface light management strategy into DJ-type perovskite system by synthesizing surface-patterned BDAPbBr4(BPB,BDA=NH_(3)(CH_(2))_(4)NH_(3))microplates(MPs)using template-assisted space-confined method,which was further elucidated by theoretical optical simulation.By leveraging surface-patterned MPs to enhance light absorption,the BPB-based photodetectors(PDs)achieved remarkable photoresponse in ultraviolet region,marked by a high on/off ratio(~5000),superior responsivity(2.24 A W^(-1)),along with large detectivity(~10^(13) Jones)and low detection limit(68.7 nW cm^(-2)).Additionally,the PDs showcased superior light communication and imaging capabilities even under weak-light illumination.Notably,the anisotropic nature of the surface-patterned MPs conferred excellent polarization sensitivity to the PD.These results represented the first demonstration of BPB perovskite in weak-light communication and imaging,as well as in polarized light detection.Our findings offer valuable insights into enhancing photodetector performance and optoelectronic applications through surface light management strategies.

文摘Two-dimensional(2D) anisotropic materials, such as B-P, B-As, GeSe, GeAs, ReSe2, KP15 and their hybrid systems, exhibit unique crystal structures and extraordinary anisotropy. This review presents a comprehensive comparison of various 2D anisotropic crystals as well as relevant FETs and photodetectors, especially on their particular anisotropy in optical and electrical properties. First, the structure of typical 2D anisotropic crystal as well as the analysis of structural anisotropy is provided. Then, recent researches on anisotropic Raman spectra are reviewed. Particularly, a brief measurement principle of Raman spectra under three typical polarized measurement configurations is introduced. Finally, recent progress on the electrical and photoelectrical properties of FETs and polarization-sensitive photodetectors based on 2D anisotropic materials is summarized for the comparison between different 2D anisotropic materials. Beyond the high response speed, sensitivity and on/off ratio, these 2D anisotropic crystals exhibit highly conduction ratio and dichroic ratio which can be applied in terms of polarization sensors, polarization spectroscopy imaging, optical radar and remote sensing.
文摘Terahertz(THz) imaging is progressing as a robust platform for myriad applications in the field of security,health,and material science.The THz regime,which comprises wavelengths spanning from microns to millimeters,is non-ionizing and has very low photon energy:Making it inherently safe for biological imaging.Colorectal cancer is one of the most common causes of death in the world,while the conventional screening and standard of care yet relies exclusively on the physician's experience.Researchers have been working on the development of a flexible THz endoscope,as a potential tool to aid in colorectal cancer screening.This involves building a single-channel THz endoscope,and profiling the THz response from colorectal tissue,and demonstrating endogenous contrast levels between normal and diseased tissue when imaging in reflection modality.The current level of contrast provided by the prototype THz endoscopic system represents a significant step towards clinical endoscopic application of THz technology for invivo colorectal cancer screening.The aim of this paper is to provide a short review of the recent advances in THz endoscopic technology and cancer imaging.In particular,the potential of single-channel THz endoscopic imaging for colonic cancer screening will be highlighted.

文摘The in-plane anisotropy of transition metal trichalcogenides(MX_(3))has a significant impact on the molding of materi-als and MX_(3) is a perfect choice for polarized photodetectors.In this study,the crystal structure,optical and optoelectronic aniso-tropy of one kind of quasi-one-dimensional(1D)semiconductors,ZrSe_(3),are systematically investigated through experiments and theoretical studies.The ZrSe_(3)-based photodetector shows impressive wide spectral response from ultraviolet(UV)to near in-frared(NIR)and exhibits great optoelectrical properties with photoresponsivity of 11.9 mA·W^(-1) and detectivity of~106 at 532 nm.Moreover,the dichroic ratio of ZrSe_(3)-based polarized photodetector is around 1.1 at 808 nm.This study suggests that ZrSe_(3) has potential in optoelectronic applications and polarization detectors.
文摘Dichroic behaviors of layered ReS2 have been characterized using angular dependent polarizedabsorption and resistivity measurements in the van der Waal plane. The angular dependent optical and electrical measurements are carried out with angles ranging from θ= 0°(E || b) to θ= 90°(E ^b) with respect to the layer crystal’s b-axis. The angular de pendence of polarized energy gaps of ReS2 shows a sinusoidal variation of energies from ~1.341 eV (E ||b to ~1.391 eV (E ^ b). The experimental evidence of polarized energy gap leaves ReS2 apotential usage for fabrication of a polarized optical switch suitable for polarized optical communication in nearinfrared (NIR) region. Angular dependence of resistivities of ReS2 in?the vander Waal plane has also been evaluated. The relationship of inplane resistivities shows a sinusoidallike variation from θ= 0°(E ||b) to 90°(E ^ b) and repeated periodically to 360°. The experimental results of optical and electrical measurements indicated that ReS2 is not only an opticaldichroic layer but also an electricaldichroism material presented in the layer plane.

文摘Uniform and well-aligned organic semiconductor single crystals(OSSCs)are critical for high-performance electronic and optoelectronic device applications due to their long-range order and low defect density.However,it is still challenging to fabricate uniform and well-aligned OSSCs by an efficient and facile method.Here,we report a vapor-induced coating method to prepare uniform organic semiconductor stripe single crystals with well-aligned orientation.The coating velocity and solution concentration are important to control the stripe crystals’morphology,which influence the triple-phase contact line dewetting behavior and then change the mass transport of the meniscus.Insufficient solute supply causes the generation of dendritic crystals.Uniform stripe single crystals of high quality and pure orientation are prepared in the condition of a sufficient and suitable solute supply.Moreover,the electronic and optoelectronic properties are evaluated.Notably,the polarization-sensitive photodetectors based on the uniform stripe crystals exhibit high polarization sensitivity and its dichroic ratio of photocurrent is 1.98.This method is efficient for the preparation of various high-quality and uniform organic semiconductor stripe single crystals,opening an opportunity for high-performance organic functional devices.

文摘Intensity,wavelength,and polarization are fundamental properties of light and typically represent the three detection dimensions in photodetectors.The information related to polarization includes additional subdimensions such as polarization state and phase difference,which can be resolved using crystals with birefringence.Inorganic materials exhibiting the electro-optic effect,like lithium niobate,are commonly employed in electro-optic modulation optical systems.However,their limited functionality poses challenges for integrating optical systems.Halide perovskites have been found to exhibit electrooptic effects due to symmetry loss in their crystal structures,making them promising candidates.These perovskites also serve as active materials with outstanding optoelectronic properties,providing opportunities for integrating electrooptically modulated polarization detection systems.This paper proposes a novel photodetector that utilizes electro-optic modulation of polarization response.The ultrafine nanoripples on the surface of the perovskite,along with micron-sized perovskite crystals,facilitate both polarization response and electrooptic modulation.This combination,enhanced by the exceptional optoelectronic characteristics of perovskites,enables the visualization of polarization modulation and the generation of multidimensional polarization currents,which can be leveraged for optical system integration and applications in machine learning.

文摘We report tensorial tomographic Fourier ptychography(T^(2)oFu),a nonscanning label-free tomographic microscopy method for simultaneous imaging of quantitative phase and anisotropic specimen information in 3D.Built upon Fourier ptychography,a quantitative phase imaging technique,T^(2)oFu additionally highlights the vectorial nature of light.The imaging setup consists of a standard microscope equipped with an LED matrix,a polarization generator,and a polarization-sensitive camera.Permittivity tensors of anisotropic samples are computationally recovered from polarized intensity measurements across three dimensions.We demonstrate T^(2)oFu’s efficiency through volumetric reconstructions of refractive index,birefringence,and orientation for various validation samples,as well as tissue samples from muscle fibers and diseased heart tissue.Our reconstructions of healthy muscle fibers reveal their 3D fine-filament structures with consistent orientations.Additionally,we demonstrate reconstructions of a heart tissue sample that carries important polarization information for detecting cardiac amyloidosis.

文摘Medium depolarization imaging by catheter-based polarization-sensitive optical coherence tomography(PS-OCT)can provide valuable insight into significant features of lipid,macrophages,and cholesterol crystals in atherosclerotic vulnerable plaques.In this paper,we demonstrate a method to achieve an accurate estimation of the medium depolarization index(EMDI)with noise immunity in catheter-based PS-OCT.EMDI is calculated by an iterative approximation based on Lu-Chipman matrix decomposition and Frobenius norm judgment of incoherent averaging of Mueller matrices.Monte Carlo simulation results verify that the medium depolarization measurement by EMDI is 3.3 times more accurate compared with those of the depolarization index(DI)and degree of polarization uniformity(DOPU).In experiments,we design a microsphere suspension with various concentrations and measure EMDI under different additive noise.Consistently,the measurement accuracy by EMDI is increased 2.85 times compared to those by DI and DOPU.For vascular plaques detection,we use protein and cholesterol gel as plaque phantoms.Based on PS-OCT images of plaque phantom in vitro and in ex vivo porcine coronary artery,the recognition rate of plaque by EMDI is 2.99 to 4.65 times higher than those by DI and DOPU evaluated by spatial response of the Laplacian operator(SRLO).
