Research on Zinc Oxide Electrochemical Deposition Control at Cathode Interface Layer of Organic Photodetector

  • 摘要: 在有机光电探测器(Organic Photodetector,OPD)中,阴极界面层作为载流子传输介质,可有效提取电子、阻挡空穴以抑制电荷复合,提升器件探测性能,其结构及物性调控具有重要研究价值。氧化锌(ZnO)是目前被广泛研究和应用的界面层材料,其制备主要采用前驱体溶液旋涂后热退火法。然而,该方法存在薄膜厚度与形貌调控范围有限、无法与曲面基板兼容等问题。基于此,提出采用电化学沉积法制备ZnO阴极界面层,拓展ZnO薄膜的可调控范围,实现对OPD性能的精确优化。器件在-0.5V偏压下暗电流密度低至5.8 × 10-9A/cm2,峰值外量子效率(EQE)达80.35%,在可见光波段范围内比探测率(D*)均大于1012Jones。此外,在电解液中加入添加剂KCl后,制备器件的紫外探测能力提升明显,380nm处EQE从小于10%提升至97%,D*达2.16 × 1012Jones。该方法可为OPD性能精准调控提供新的解决思路。

     

    Abstract: In Organic photodetector (OPD), the cathode interface layer, as a carrier transport medium, can effectively extract electrons, block holes to suppress charge recombination, and enhance the detection performance of the device. The regulation of its structure and physical properties has significant research value. Zinc oxide (ZnO) is currently a widely studied and applied interface layer material. Its preparation method mainly involves thermal annealing after spin-coating of the precursor solution. However, the method has problems such as limited control range of film thickness and morphology, and incompatibility with curved substrate. Based on this, it is proposed to prepare the ZnO cathode interface layer by electrochemical deposition, expand the controllable range of ZnO thin films, and achieve precise optimization of OPD performance. The dark current density of the device is as low as 5. 8 × 10-9 A/cm2 at a bias voltage of-0. 5V, and the peak external quantum efficiency (EQE) reaches 80. 35%. The specific detecibility (D*) in the visible light band is all greater than 1012 Jones. In addition, after adding the additive KCl to the electrolyte, the ultraviolet detection capability of the fabricated device was significantly enhanced. The EQE at 380 nm increased from less than 10% to 97%, and the D* reached 2. 16 × 1012 Jones. The method can provide a new solution for the precise regulation of OPD performance.
