Enhanced photogalvanic effect in the two-dimensional MgCl

The photogalvanic effect (PGE) occurring in noncentrosymmetric materials enables the generation of a dc photocurrent at zero bias with a high polarization sensitivity, which makes it very attractive in photodetection. However, the magnitude of the PGE photocurrent is usually small, leading to a low photoresponsivity, and therefore hampers its practical application in

6 FAQs about [Enhanced intrinsic photovoltaic effect in tungsten disulfide nanotubes]

Can tungsten disulfide enhance bpve?

Here we report the discovery of the BPVE in devices based on tungsten disulfide, a member of the TMD family. We find that systematically reducing the crystal symmetry beyond mere broken inversion symmetry—moving from a two-dimensional monolayer to a nanotube with polar properties—greatly enhances the BPVE.

Do polar nanotubes increase photovoltaic efficiency?

A bulk photovoltaic effect is observed in devices based on tungsten disulfide, and is enhanced if the devices take the form of polar nanotubes, showing the importance of reducing crystal symmetry to a polar structure in achieving higher efficiencies.

Can tungsten disulfide be shaped into nanotubes?

Zhang and colleagues’ work calls attention to a hitherto-unexplored approach: shaping the semiconductors that have high light absorption into nanotubes. In the case of tungsten disulfide, the crystal symmetry of the nanotube is reduced with respect to that of the monolayer and bilayer, because of the tube’s curved walls.

Can tungsten disulfide be used to make junction-free solar cells?

Zhang and colleagues fabricated junction-free solar cells using the semiconductor tungsten disulfide. Crystals of this material have a layered structure, and can be peeled off layer by layer in a similar way to graphite. The resulting atom-thick sheets can then be rolled by chemical methods into tubes that have diameters of about 100 nanometres.

What is the photovoltaic effect in a p-n junction?

7 RIKEN Center for Emergent Matter Science (CEMS), Wako, Japan. The photovoltaic effect in traditional p-n junctions-where a p-type material (with an excess of holes) abuts an n-type material (with an excess of electrons)-involves the light-induced creation of electron-hole pairs and their subsequent separation, generating a current.

Is tungsten disulfide a two dimensional semiconductor?

You have full access to this article via your institution. Tungsten disulfide (WS 2) and other group-VI-B TMDs are two-dimensional semiconductors with relatively small bandgaps of 1.2–2.1 eV (refs 11, 12). In their most stable 2H phase, the unit cell of bulk TMDs is centrosymmetric and the material belongs to the D6h point group.
