    Abstract
  • Hybrid graphene/semiconductor phototransistors have attracted great attention because of their ultrahigh responsivity. However, the specific detectivity (D*) for such hybrid phototransistors obtained from source-drain electrodes is assumed to be 1/f noise. In this paper, D* of ~1.82×1011 Jones was achieved from source-gate electrodes. Compared with the same device which was measured from source-drain electrodes, D* was improved by ~500 times. This could be attributed to the carrier trapping and detrapping processes having been screened by the Schottky barrier at the interface. The rise and decay times were 4 ms and 37 ms, respectively. The temporal response speed also correspondingly improved by ~2 orders of magnitude. This work provides an alternative route toward light photodetectors with high specific detectivity and speed.
