Enhancing Self‐Powered Terahertz Photodetection with VSe2 and Van Der Waals Heterostructure Integration via Photothermoelectric Effect

Abstract Owning unique optical and electronic properties, two dimensional (2D) materials have made remarkable strides in the field of photodetection applications. However, achieving highly sensitive and ultra‐broadband detection from microwave to terahertz (THz) range (0.02–0.54 THz) remains a signi...

description Abstract Owning unique optical and electronic properties, two dimensional (2D) materials have made remarkable strides in the field of photodetection applications. However, achieving highly sensitive and ultra‐broadband detection from microwave to terahertz (THz) range (0.02–0.54 THz) remains a significant challenge for photodetectors. This study presents a self‐powered THz photodetector based on VSe2 and its van der Waals heterostructure. The photoresponse of the photodetector is primarily attributed to the photothermoelectric effect. At room temperature, the device exhibits lower noise equivalent power values of 21 pW Hz−1/2 at 0.28 THz. This work has achieved ultra‐broadband detection and demonstrated the potential for large‐area imaging, providing a new avenue for the application of THz technology in nondestructive testing and biometric identification fields.
