(abstract)

Solution-processed colloidal III-V semiconductor quantum dot photodiodes (QPDs) have potential applications in SWIR imaging due to their tunable spectral response range, possible multiple-exciton generation, operation at 0-V bias voltage and low-cost fabrication and are also expected to replace lead- and mercury-based counterparts that are hampered by RoHS. However, the use of III-V CQDs as photoactive layers in SWIR optoelectronic applications is still a challenge because of underdeveloped ligand-engineering for improving the in-plane conductivity of the QD assembled film. Here we report on ligand engineering of InSb CQDs to enhance the optical response performance of self-powered SWIR QPDs. Specifically, by replacing oleylamine with sulfide, the interparticle distance between the CQDs was shortened 5.0 ± 0.5 nm to 1.5 ± 0.5 nm, leading to improved carrier mobility for high photoresponse speed to SWIR light.
