“…Photodetectors (PDs) that convert light energy into electrical signals are one of the major components in advanced multifunctional technologies. [1][2][3][4][5][6] The developed PD technologies have so far covered a wide range of applications that have a significant impact on our daily lives such as visible light detection for video imaging and digital cameras, ultraviolet (UV) radiation for cell inspection and lithography, X-ray radiation for biomedical imaging, wide-range infrared (IR) detection for night vision, environmental monitoring, optical communication, and quality testing spectroscopy, among others. [7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20] PDs are categorized using several key figures-of-merit such as photogain, quantum efficiency, detectivity, responsivity and others.…”
