Recently, two-dimensional (2D) van der Waals (vdWs) heterostructures provided excellent and fascinating platforms for advanced engineering in high-performance optoelectronic devices. Herein, novel ReS2/ReSe2 heterojunction phototransistors are constructed and explored systematically that display high responsivity, wavelength-dependent ambipolar photoresponse (negative and positive), ultrafast and polarization-sensitive detection capability. This photodetector exhibits a positive photoresponse from UV to visible spectrum (760 nm) with high photoresponsivities about 126.56 and 16.24 A/W under 350 and 638 nm light illumination, respectively, with a negative photoresponse over 760 nm, which is mainly ascribed to the ambipolar photoresponse modulated by gate voltage. In addition, profound linear polarization sensitivity is demonstrated with a dichroic ratio of about ∼1.2 at 638 nm and up to ∼2.0 at 980 nm, primarily owing to the wavelength-dependent absorption anisotropy and the stagger alignment of the crystal. Beyond static photodetection, the dynamic photoresponse of this vdWs device presents an ultrafast and repeatable photoswitching performance with a cutoff frequency (f 3dB) exceeding 100 kHz. Overall, this study reveals the great potential of 2D ReX2-based vdWs heterostructures for high-performance, ultrafast, and polarization-sensitive broadband photodetectors.
Semiconductor lasers have developed rapidly with the steady growth of the global laser market. The use of semiconductor laser diodes is currently considered to be the most advanced option for achieving the optimal combination of efficiency, energy consumption, and cost parameters of high-power solid-state and fiber lasers. In this work, an approach for optical mode engineering in planar waveguides is investigated. The approach referred to as Coupled Large Optical Cavity (CLOC) is based on the resonant optical coupling between waveguides and allows the selection of high-order modes. The state-of-art of the CLOC operation is reviewed and discussed. We apply the CLOC concept in our waveguide design strategy. The results in both numerical simulation and experiment show that the CLOC approach can be considered a simple and cost-efficient solution for improving diode laser performance.
