Abstract:
Light-matter interaction is a long-lasting theme in condensed matter physics, which propels the advance of optoelectronics. Photodetection in different wavelength regimes is the foundation of a wide range of sensing, imaging, medical and surveillance technologies. Here I will discuss the use of transition-metal oxides and their heterostructures with proper bandgaps and architectures to detect photons with different wavelengths. First, we report a mid-infrared (up to 10 μm) mixed-dimensional photodetector enabled via coupling a narrow bandgap semiconductor Ti2O3 with graphene [1]. Second, I will discuss a nonvolatile memory made of ferroelectric Sm0.1Bi0.9FeO3 and semiconducting Nb-doped SrTiO3, where giant tunnelling electroresistance and tunable photovoltaic effect are observed [2]. Finally, I will discuss a colossal persistent photoconductivity observed at room temperature in the epitaxial ferroelectric/semiconductor oxide junctions, where the junction conduction is enhanced by six orders in magnitude under X-ray illumination [3].
