Abstract
Broadband photomultiplication-type organic photodetectors (PM-OPDs) were prepared with PMBBDT:PY3Se-2V (1:1, wt/wt) as the absorbing layer (AL) and PC71BM:P3HT (100:5, wt/wt) as the photomultiplication layer (PML) on the basis of the sandwich structure. The incident photons from ultraviolet light to the near-infrared region can be harvested by AL. The rather less P3HT in PML can produce plenty of isolated hole traps with P3HT surrounded by PC71BM; the electron tunneling injection induced by trapped holes near the Ag electrode can lead to the photomultiplication (PM) phenomenon. The performance of PM-OPDs can be effectively improved by optimizing the AL thickness. The optimal PM-OPDs exhibit a broad spectral response from 300 to 1050 nm as well as an external quantum efficiency (EQE) of 5800% at 340 nm at 10 V bias, along with a specific detectivity (D*) of 3.78 × 1013 Jones. The spectral response of PM-OPDs is controlled by the trapped-hole distribution near the Ag electrode, primarily originating from the photogenerated holes in AL. To further optimize the spectral response of PM-OPDs, the optical filter layer (OFL) was used to manipulate light field distribution in AL. The violet, red, and near-infrared-light PM-OPDs were developed by employing different OFLs.
