Abstract

Efficient light detection is central to modern science and technology.Current photodetectors mainly use photodiodes based on crystalline inorganic elementalsemiconductors, such as silicon, or compounds such as III–V semiconductors. Photodetectorsmade of solution-processed semiconductors — which incl...
