Solution-processed photodetectors from colloidal silicon nano/micro particle composite

Abstract: We demonstrate solution-processed photodetectors composed of heavy-metal-free Si nano/micro particle composite. The colloidal Si particles are synthesized by electrochemical etching of Si wafers, followed by ultra-sonication to pulverize the porous surface. With alkyl ligand surface passivation through hydrosilylation reaction, the particles can form a stable colloidal suspension which exhibits bright photoluminescence under ultraviolet excitation and a broadband extinction spectrum due to enhanced scattering … Show more

“…At 405-nm and 450-nm excitation, the PL intensity was 90% and 55% of the maximum, respectively. The absorbance (or extinction) has a much broader spectrum than the excitation, due to a combination of scattering and absorption effects by the micron-size cores [14]. Especially at wavelengths longer than 550 nm, the absorbance of the phosphor suspension simply does not contribute to PL.…”

“…In this work, the SiQDs were synthesized by electrochemical etching of Si wafer, followed by surface passivation through hydrosilylation and ultrasonication for dispersing the QDs in solvents. 14 In the electrochemical etching reaction, we etched p-type boron-doped Si wafers with ͑100͒ orientation and 5 -20 ⍀ cm resistivity under stirring in a mixture of hydrofluoric acid ͑HF͒, methanol, hydrogen peroxide ͑H 2 O 2 ͒, and polyoxometalates ͑POMs͒, where the latter two ingredients function as catalysts. 15 A mild etching recipe was used ͑etching current density= 10 mA/ cm 2 , etching time= 2 h, and small amount of H 2 O 2 ͒ in order to avoid the formation of too many microsize pores on the wafer surface.…”

“…This fast development is particularly due to its potential use in the field of optical biosensors, electronic circuits, automobiles, drug carriers, microelectronics packing, shielding material, coating, fire-retardant, bullet proof jackets, etc. [5,6,7,8,9,10]. Basically nanocomposites are the mixtures of matrix of standard materials and nano sized particles such that the effective amount of incorporated nano particles remains between 0.5 to 5 % to achieve the dramatic improvement in the properties of matrix of standard materials [10].…”
