Hot carrier-enhanced interlayer electron –hole pair multiplication in 2D semiconductor heterostructure photocells
Nature Nanotechnology 12, 1134 (2017).
doi:10.1038/nnano.2017.203
Authors: Fatemeh Barati, Max Grossnickle, Shanshan Su, Roger K. Lake, Vivek Aji & Nathaniel M. Gabor
Strong electronic interactions can result in novel particle–antiparticle (electron–hole, e–h) pair generation effects, which may be exploited to enhance the photoresponse of nanoscale optoelectronic devices. Highly efficient e–h pair multiplication has been demonstrated in several important nanoscale systems, including nanocrystal quantum dots, carbon nanotubes and graphene. The small Fermi velocity and nonlocal nature of the effective die...
