“…[1][2][3][4][5][6][7] As is well known, the noise characteristics of a photodetector, including thermal noise, shot noise and 1/f noise, determine the weak light detection limit. 8,9 Achieving a low dark current is crucial for mitigating various sources of noise in a photodetector, thereby enhancing its ability to detect weak light with improved signal-to-noise ratios. [10][11][12] Compared to traditional semiconductors, wide bandgap semiconductors, such as SiC, AlGaN, ZnMgO, diamond, and Ga 2 O 3 , [13][14][15] have potential advantages in developing highly sensitive photodetectors for weak-light detection by virtue of their extremely low intrinsic carrier concentration and high physical stability along with chemical properties.…”
