We develop a microscopic theory of a strong electromagnetic field interaction with gated bilayer graphene. Quantum kinetic equations for density matrix are obtained using a tight binding approach within second quantized Hamiltonian in an…
Thermoelectric effects in $p-n$ junctions are widely used for energy generation with thermal gradients, creation of compact Peltier refrigerators and, most recently, for sensitive detection of infrared and terahertz radiation. It is…
We have fabricated graphene devices with a top gate separated from the graphene layer by an air gap--a design which does not decrease the mobility of charge carriers under the gate. This gate is used to realise p-n-p structures where the…
We report on temperature dependent photocurrent measurements of high-quality dual-gated monolayer graphene (MLG) p-n junction devices. A photothermoelectric (PTE) effect governs the photocurrent response in our devices, allowing us to track…
Photodetectors converting light signals into detectable photocurrents are ubiquitously in use today. To improve the compactness and performance of next-generation devices and systems, low dimensional materials provide rich physics to…
When the Fermi level matches the Dirac point in graphene, the reduced charge screening can dramatically enhance electron-electron (e-e) scattering to produce a strongly interacting Dirac liquid. While the dominance of e-e scattering already…
The photoresponse of graphene at mid-infrared frequencies is of high technological interest and is governed by fundamentally different underlying physics than the photoresponse at visible frequencies, as the energy of the photons and…
The photovoltaic effect is one of the fundamental light-matter interactions in light energy harvesting. In conventional photovoltaic solar cells, the photogenerated charge carriers are extracted by the built-in electric field of a PN…
InGaN nanowires are suitable building blocks for many future optoelectronic devices. We show that a linear grading of the indium content along the nanowire axis from GaN to InN introduces an internal electric field evoking a photocurrent.…
The built-in potential of p-n junctions plays a pivotal role in charge separation, a fundamental process underlying the photovoltaic effect.However, conventional classical theories of photovoltaic behavior in p-n junctions often neglect its…
Graphene's high mobility and Fermi velocity, combined with its constant light absorption in the visible to far-infrared range, make it an ideal material to fabricate high-speed and ultra-broadband photodetectors. However, the precise…
We fabricate and investigate high quality graphene devices with contactless, suspended top gates, and demonstrate formation of graphene pnp junctions with tunable polarity and doping levels. The device resistance displays distinct…
It is shown that one can explore the optical conductivity of graphene, together with the ability of controlling its electronic density by an applied gate voltage, in order to achieve resonant coupling between an external electromagnetic…
In a GaN/AlGaN field-effect terahertz detector, the directional photocurrent is mapped in the two-dimensional space of the gate voltage and the drain/source bias. It is found that not only the magnitude, but also the polarity, of the…
We report the first investigation of the photo-response of the conductivity of a new class of organic semiconductors based on functionalized pentacene. These materials form high quality single crystals that exhibit a thermally activated…
Photogalvanic effect (PGE) occurring in noncentrosymmetric materials enables the generation of the open-circuit voltage that is much larger than the bandgap, making it rather attractive in solar cells. However, the magnitude of the PGE…
Graphene pn junction is the brick to build up variety of graphene nano-structures. The analytical formula of the conductance of graphene gradual pn junctions in the whole bipolar region has been absent up to now. In this paper, we…
Many contemporary photodetectors operate beyond the readout of light intensity and enable the reconstruction of spectrum and polarization at the single-pixel level. However, the determination of light incidence direction with reconstructive…
We report mid-infrared photocurrent spectra of graphene nanoribbon arrays on SiO2 dielectrics showing dual signatures of the substrate interaction. First, hybrid polaritonic modes of graphene plasmons and dielectric surface polar phonons…
The challenge of next generation datacom and telecom communication is to increase the available bandwidth while reducing the size, cost and power consumption of photonic integrated circuits. Silicon (Si) photonics has emerged as a viable…
