We explore the application of the semiconducting phases of YBaCuO thin films as a bolometer for uncooled infrared detection. For this study, four different structures were built with different types of buffer layers: YBaCuO on a Si substrate with and without a MgO buffer layer, and on an oxidized Si substrate with and without a MgO buffer layer. These films were all amorphous without a detectab...

Tuning halide composition in perovskites is a powerful approach demonstrated to enhance the performance of perovskite photovoltaic devices where such compositional modifications drive improvements open-circuit voltage (Voc) and reduction nonradiative losses. Similarly, photodetectors (PDs) operate as light current conversion hence it relevant investigate whether enhancements can be achieved by ...

Recently, hybrid organic−inorganic perovskites have emerged as promising photo-sensing materials for next-generation solution-processed phototransistors, achieving high responsivity, detectivity, and fast response. Here, a phototransistor that can detect visible light using low-cost, solution processed methylammonium lead iodide/zinc oxide (CH3NH3PbI3/ZnO) heterostructure is reported. While typ...
