“…Solar-blind region corresponds to ultraviolet (UV) light at a wavelength of 200–280 nm, which can be absorbed by ozone in the atmosphere. In recent years, solar-blind photodetectors (SBPDs) have raised increasing attention from researchers for being able to work without the influence of solar radiation. − Benefiting from that, SBPDs have been widely used in many civil and military areas, with fire detection and imaging being two major applications. − Among the most popular structures of SBPDs, the p–n junction has demonstrated high performance including low dark current ( I dark ), high photocurrent ( I photo ), high sensitivity, and fast response speed. Most importantly, at the interface of p–n junction there exists a built-in electric field ( E built‑in ) owing to the formation of the space charge region, facilitating the separation of electron–hole pairs, thus allowing the device to be self-powered without external biases, which meets the requirements of today’s environmentally friendly society. − …”
