Organic and quantum dot hybrid photodetectors: towards full-band and fast detection

Abstract

Photodetectors hold great application potential in many fields such as image sensing, night vision, infrared communication and health monitoring. To date, commercial photodetectors mainly rely on inorganic semiconductors, e.g., monocrystalline...

Toward efficient hybrid solar cells comprising quantum dots and organic materials: progress, strategies, and perspectives

“…Recently, our group developed a facile polymer blending strategy for high-performance hybrid QD and organic solar cells with enhanced V oc and J sc . 77,174,175 We developed the facile brominated polythiophenes for the further breakthrough of QD/polythiophene solar cells with type I structure. 175 The energy level of polythiophene was markedly reduced, which can enable a favorable energy landscape, fast carrier transport, and less charge recombination.…”

Perovskite-quantum dot hybrid solar cells: a multi-win strategy for high performance and stability

“…We fully believe that the above research insights will encourage further development of hybrid solar cells and advance the commercialization progress. A hybrid strategy may also bring new opportunities for photodetectors, 163,164 lightemitting diodes [165][166][167][168] and other functional sensors. [169][170][171][172]…”
