Abstract

Layered Zn_0.15Sn_0.85(Se_0.95S_0.05)₂ (Q2) crystals with a hexagonal crystalline structure were grown using the direct vapor transport technique (DVT). This research explores applications of the grown Q2 crystals as a near-infrared (NIR) photodetector, vacuum pressure sensor, and Van der Waals heterojunction. The NIR photodetector demonstrating stable, rapid switching with an improved responsivity of 153.38 mAW^-1. A Q2 crystal-based NIR photodetector achieves an external quantum efficiency of 21.17 %. The Maxwellian distribution was applied to analysis trap depth of NIR photodetector. Additionally, the pulse resistive response of the Q2 crystal-based vacuum pressure sensor was evaluated across a vacuum pressure range from −1033 mbar to 0 mbar. The sensor exhibited a stable response, with 61.27 % at −1033 mbar and 5.85 % at −133 mbar with an average delay time of 2.99 s. Furthermore, the Van der Waals heterojunction device formed by the grown p-type Q2 crystals with another n-type quaternary crystal was studied using the thermionic-emission (TE) model. The ideality factors have been defined in the range of 1 to 2 by studying the current voltage (I-V) characteristics under different temperatures.
