One‐dimensional (1D) crystal‐structural materials have attracted extensive attention for polarization detection because of the strong anisotropy. Barium titanium sulfide (BaTiS3), a quasi‐1D chalcogenide perovskite, demonstrates a great potential for polarization detection stemming from the giant optical anisotropy. Whereas, the photoelectric properties of BaTiS3 and its direct application in polarized photodetector are less studied. Herein, quasi‐1D BaTiS3 is introduced in polarized photodetection for the first time. The needle‐like BaTiS3 single crystals are successfully prepared by a modified chemical vapor transport process. The BaTiS3 single crystal demonstrates a narrow bandgap of 0.8 eV, an n‐type intrinsic conductivity, and a more than 300 cm2 V−1 s−1 mobility along the c‐axis. Then, an Ag/BaTiS3/Ag photoconductive detector is fabricated. It shows a broad detection wavelength ranging from visual light to 1550 nm and high responsivity of ≈1.22 A W−1. Moreover, an orthogonal reverse property of polarization photocurrent is observed under the excitation energy of 1.70 eV and 1.96 eV. These comprehensive characteristics can promote the application of the quasi‐1D BaTiS3 in near‐infrared polarized photodetection.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
