We present prominent photoresponse of bio-inspired graphene-based phototransistors sensitized with chlorophyll molecules. The hybrid graphene-chlorophyll phototransistors exhibit a high gain of 10^6 electrons per photon and a high responsivity of 10^6 A/W, which can be attributed to the integration of high-mobility graphene and the photosensitive chlorophyll molecules. The charge transfer at interface and the photogating effect in the chlorophyll layer can account for the observed photoresponse of the hybrid devices, which is confirmed by the back-gate-tunable photocurrent as well as the thickness and time dependent studies of the photoresponse. The demonstration of the graphene-chlorophyll phototransistors with high gain envisions a viable method to employ biomaterials for graphene-based optoelectronics.

Due to its high carrier mobility, broadband absorption, and fast response time, graphene is attractive for optoelectronics and photodetection applications. However, the extraction of photoelectrons in conventional metal-graphene junction devices is l
imited by their small junction area, where the typical photoresponsivity is lower than 0.01 AW-1. On the other hand, the atomically thin layer of molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) is a two-dimensional (2d) nanomaterial with a direct and finite band gap, offering the possibility of acting as a 2d light absorber. The optoelectronic properties of the heterostructure of these two films is therefore of great interest. The growth of large-area graphene using chemical vapour deposition (CVD) has become mature nowadays. However, the growth of large-area MoS2 monolayer is still challenging. In this work, we show that a large-area and continuous MoS2 monolayer is achievable using a CVD method. Both graphene and MoS2 layers are transferable onto desired substrates, making possible immediate and large-scale optoelectronic applications. We demonstrate that a phototransistor based on the graphene/MoS2 heterostructure is able to provide a high photoresponsivity greater than 107 A/W while maintaining its ultrathin and planar structure. Our experiments show that the electron-hole pairs are produced in the MoS2 layer after light absorption and subsequently separated across the layers. Contradictory to the expectation based on the conventional built-in electric field model for metal-semiconductor contacts, photoelectrons are injected into the graphene layer rather than trapped in MoS2 due to the alignment of the graphene Fermi level with the conduction band of MoS2. The band alignment is sensitive to the presence of a perpendicular electric field arising from, for example, Coulomb impurities or an applied gate voltage, resulting in a tuneable photoresponsivity.
Two-dimensional transition metal dichalcogenides are emerging with tremendous potential in many optoelectronic applications due to their strong light-matter interactions. To fully explore their potential in photoconductive detectors, high responsivit
y and weak signal detection are required. Here, we present high responsivity phototransistors based on few-layer rhenium disulfide (ReS2). Depending on the back gate voltage, source drain bias and incident optical light intensity, the maximum attainable photoresponsivity can reach as high as 88,600 A W-1, which is a record value compared to other two-dimensional materials with similar device structures and two orders of magnitude higher than that of monolayer MoS2. Such high photoresponsivity is attributed to the increased light absorption as well as the gain enhancement due to the existence of trap states in the few-layer ReS2 flakes. It further enables the detection of weak signals, as successfully demonstrated with weak light sources including a lighter and limited fluorescent lighting. Our studies underscore ReS2 as a promising material for future sensitive optoelectronic applications.
The transfer of graphene grown by chemical vapor deposition (CVD) using amorphous polymers represents a widely implemented method for graphene-based electronic device fabrication. However, the most commonly used polymer, poly(methyl methacrylate) (PM
MA), leaves a residue on the graphene that limits the mobility. Here we report a method for graphene transfer and patterning that employs a perfluoropolymer---Hyflon---as a transfer handle and to protect graphene against contamination from photoresists or other polymers. CVD-grown graphene transferred this way onto LaAlO$_3$/SrTiO$_3$ heterostructures is atomically clean, with high mobility (~30,000 cm$^2$V$^{-1}$s$^{-1}$) near the Dirac point at 2 K and clear, quantized Hall and magneto-resistance. Local control of the LaAlO$_3$/SrTiO$_3$ interfacial metal-insulator transition---through the graphene---is preserved with this transfer method. The use of perfluoropolymers such as Hyflon with CVD-grown graphene and other 2D materials can readily be implemented with other polymers or photoresists.
In this work, high field carrier transport in two dimensional (2D) graphene is investigated. Analytical models are applied to estimate the saturation currents in graphene, based on the high scattering rate of optical phonon emission. Non-equilibrium
(hot) phonon effect was studied by Monte Carlo (MC) simulations. MC simulation confirms that hot phonon effects play a dominant role in current saturation in graphene. Current degradation due to elastic scattering events is much smaller compared to the hot phonon effect. Transient phenomenon as such as velocity overshoot was also studied using MC simulation. The simulation results shows promising potential for graphene to be used in high speed electronic devices by shrinking the channel length below 100nm if electrostatic control can be exercised in the absence of a band gap.
Because of its fascinating electronic properties, graphene is expected to produce breakthroughs in many areas of nanoelectronics. For spintronics, its key advantage is the expected long spin lifetime, combined with its large electron velocity. In thi
s article, we review recent theoretical and experimental results showing that graphene could be the long-awaited platform for spintronics. A critical parameter for both characterization and devices is the resistance of the contact between the electrodes and the graphene, which must be large enough to prevent quenching of the induced spin polarization but small enough to allow for the detection of this polarization. Spin diffusion lengths in the 100-{mu}m range, much longer than those in conventional metals and semiconductors, have been observed. This could be a unique advantage for several concepts of spintronic devices, particularly for the implementation of complex architectures or logic circuits in which information is coded by pure spin currents.
