In recent years, the integration of two-dimensional (2D) nanomaterials, especially transition metal chalcogendies (TMCs) and dichalcogendies (TMDCs), into electronic devices have been extensively studied owing to their exceptional physical properties such as high transparency, strong photoluminescence, and tunable bandgap depending on the number of layers. Herein, we report the optoelectronic properties of few-layered MoSe 2 -based back-gated phototransistors used for photodetection. The photoresponsivity could be easily controlled to reach a maximum value of 238 AW −1 under near-infrared light excitation, achieving a high specific detectivity D 7.6 10 cm Hz W .Few-layered MoSe 2 exhibited excellent optoelectronic properties compared with those reported previously for multilayered 2D material-based photodetectors, indicating that our device is one of the best high-performance nanoscale nearinfrared photodetectors based on multilayered two-dimensional materials.

Two-dimensional (2D) layered materials exhibit unique optoelectronic properties at atomic thicknesses. In this paper, we fabricated metal-semiconductor-metal based photodetectors using layered gallium selenide (GaSe) with different thicknesses. The electrical and optoelectronic properties of the photodetectors were studied, and these devices showed good electrical characteristics down to GaSe flake thicknesses of 30 nm. A photograting effect was observed in the absence of a gate voltage, thereby implying a relatively high photoresponsivity. Higher values of the photoresponsivity occurred for thicker layers of GaSe with a maximum value 0.57 AW(-1) and external quantum efficiency of of 132.8%, and decreased with decreasing GaSe flake thickness. The detectivity was 4.05 × 10(10) cm Hz(1/2) W(-1) at 532 nm laser wavelength, underscoring that GaSe is a promising p-type 2D material for photodetection applications in the visible spectrum.

We report on the exponential decay of the red-shift of the photoluminescence A-exciton peak in monolayer molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) with the excitation laser power. The linear relationship found for the thermal variation of the same peak suggests that the laser power effect goes beyond the exciton dynamics associated to temperature variations. Laser exitation power effect on the broadening and red-shifting of the A(1g) and E(2g)1 phonon peaks observed by Raman spectroscopy reflect the damping of vibration due local thermal heating induced by the laser. Our results point out the laser excitation power dependence on the photoluminescence properties of monolayer MoS2.
