Abstract: International audience; As the field of nanocrystal-based optoelectronics matures, more advanced techniques must be developed in order to reveal the electronic structure of nanocrystals, particularly with devicerelevant conditions. So far, most of the efforts have been focused on optical spectroscopy, and electrochemistry where an absolute energy reference is required. Device optimization requires probing not only the pristine material but also the material in its actual environment (i.e., surrounded by a transport layer and an electrode, in the presence of an applied electric field). Here, we explored the use of photoemission microscopy as a strategy for operando investigation of NC-based devices. We demonstrate that the method can be applied to a variety of materials and device geometries. Finally, we show that it provides a direct access to the metal-semiconductor interface band bending as well as the distance over which the gate effect propagates in field-effect transistors.

Abstract: International audience; After the use of nanocrystals as light down-converters, infrared sensing appears to be one of the first market applications where they can be used while being both electrically and optically active. Over recent years, tremendous progress has been achieved, leading to an apparent rise in the technological readiness level (TRL). So far, the efforts have been focused on PbS nanocrystals for operation in the near-infrared. Here, we focus on HgTe since its narrower band gap offers more flexibility to explore the extended shortwave and mid-wave infrared. We report a photoconductive strategy fort the design of short wave infrared focal plane array with enhanced image quality. An important aspect often swept under the rug at an early stage is the material stability. It appears that HgTe remains mostly unaffected by oxidation under air operation. The evaporation of Hg, a potentially dramatic aging process, only occurs at temperatures far beyond the focal plane array's standard working temperature. The main bottleneck appears to be the particle sintering resulting from joule heating of focal plane array. This suggests that a cooling system is required, with a first role of preventing the material from sintering even before targeting dark current reduction.

Abstract: International audience; Integration of photonic structures in nanocrystal-based photodetectors has been demonstrated to improve device performances. Furthermore, bias-dependent photoresponse can be observed in such devices as a result of the interplay between hopping transport and inhomogeneous electromagnetic field. Here, we investigate the main physical concepts leading to a voltage-dependent photoresponse. We first bring evidence of bias-dependent carrier mobilities in a nanocrystal array over a wide range of temperatures. Then, we realize an infrared sensing device using HgTe nanocrystals, where the electrodes also play the role of a grating, inducing a spatially inhomogeneous absorption. The obtained device exhibits a significant bias-dependent photoresponse while possessing a competitive detection performance in the extended shortwave and mid-wave infrared, with detectivity reaching 7x10 10 Jones at 80 K and a fast response time of around 70 ns. This work provides the foundation for further advancements in nanocrystal-basedactive photonics devices.

Abstract: Nanocrystals’ (NCs) band gap can be easily tuned over the infrared range, making them appealing for the design of cost-effective sensors. Though their growth has reached a high level of maturity, their doping remains a poorly controlled parameter, raising the need for post-synthesis tuning strategies. As a result, phototransistor device geometry offers an interesting alternative to photoconductors, allowing carrier density control. Phototransistors based on NCs that target integrated infrared sensing have to (i) be compatible with low-temperature operation, (ii) avoid liquid handling, and (iii) enable large carrier density tuning. These constraints drive the search for innovative gate technologies beyond traditional dielectric or conventional liquid and ion gel electrolytes. Here, we explore lithium-ion glass gating and apply it to channels made of HgTe narrow band gap NCs. We demonstrate that this all-solid gate strategy is compatible with large capacitance up to 2 µF·cm−2 and can be operated over a broad range of temperatures (130–300 K). Finally, we tackle an issue often faced by NC-based phototransistors:their low absorption; from a metallic grating structure, we combined two resonances and achieved high responsivity (10 A·W−1 or an external quantum efficiency of 500%) over a broadband spectral range.

Abstract: International audience; Nanocrystals are now established light sources, and as synthesis and device integration have gained maturity, new functionalities can now be considered. So far, the emitted light from a nanocrystal population remains mostly driven by the structural properties (composition, size, shape) of the particle, and only limited post-synthesis tunability has been demonstrated. Here, we explore the design of light amplitude modulators using a nanocrystal-based light-emitting diode operated under reverse bias. We demonstrate strong photoluminescence modulations for devices operating in the visible and near telecom wavelengths using low bias operations (

Abstract: International audience; As nanocrystal-based devices gain maturity, a comprehensive understanding of their electronic structure is necessary for further optimization. Most spectroscopic techniques typically examine pristine materials and disregard the coupling of the active material to its actual environment, the influence of an applied electric field, and possible illumination effects. Therefore, it is critical to develop tools that can probe device in situ and operando. Here, we explore photoemission microscopy as a tool to unveil the energy landscape of a HgTe NC-based photodiode. We propose a planar diode stack to facilitate surface-sensitive photoemission measurements. We demonstrate that the method gives direct quantification of the diode's built-in voltage. Furthermore, we discuss how it is affected by particle size and illumination. We show that combining SnO2 and Ag2Te as electron and hole transport layers is better suited for extended-short-wave infrared materials than materials with larger bandgaps. We also identify the effect of photodoping over the SnO2 layer and propose a strategy to overcome it. Given its simplicity, the method appears to be of utmost interest for screening diode design strategies.

Abstract: International audience; While the integration of nanocrystals as an active medium for optoelectronic devices progresses, light management strategies become required. Over recent years, several photonic structures (plasmons, cavities, mirrors, etc.) have been coupled to nanocrystal films to shape the absorption spectrum, tune the directionality, and so on. Here, we explore a photonic equivalent of the acoustic Helmholtz resonator and propose a design that can easily be fabricated. This geometry combines a strong electromagnetic field magnification and a narrow channel width compatible with efficient charge conduction in spite of hopping conduction. At 80 K, the device reaches a responsivity above 1 A•W-1 and detectivity above 10 11 Jones (3 µm cutoff) while offering a significantly faster time-response than vertical geometry diodes.

Abstract: While HgTe nanocrystals (NCs) in the mid-infrared region have reached a high level of maturity, their far-infrared counterparts remain far less studied, raising the need for an in-depth investigation of the material before efficient device integration can be considered. Here, we explore the effect of temperature and pressure on the structural, spectroscopic, and transport properties of HgTe NCs displaying an intraband absorption at 10 THz. The temperature leads to a very weak modulation of the spectrum as opposed to what was observed for strongly confined HgTe NCs. HgTe NC films present ambipolar conduction with a clear prevalence of electron conduction as confirmed by transistor and thermoelectric measurements. Under the application of pressure, the material undergoes phase transitions from the zinc blende to cinnabar phase and later to the rock salt phase which we reveal using joint X-ray diffraction and infrared spectroscopy measurements. We discuss how the pressure existence domain of each phase is affected by the particle size.

Abstract: International audience; Mercury telluride (HgTe) nanocrystals are among of the most versatile infrared (IR) materials with the absorption of first optical absorption which can be tuned from visible to the THz range. Therefore, they have been extensively considered as near IR emitters and as absorbers for low-cost IR detectors. However, the electroluminescence of HgTe remains poorly investigated in spite of its ability to go toward longer wavelengths compared to traditional lead sulfide (PbS). Here, we demonstrate a light emitting diode (LED) based on an indium tin oxide (ITO)/zinc oxide (ZnO)/ZnO-HgTe/PbS/gold stacked structure, where the emitting layer consists of a ZnO/HgTe bulk heterojunction which drives the charge balance in the system. This LED has low turn-on voltage, long lifetime, and high brightness. Finally, we conduct short wavelength infrared (SWIR) active imaging, where illumination is obtained from a HgTe NC-based LED, and demonstrate moisture detection.

Abstract: International audience; As nanocrystals (NCs) gain maturity, they become central building blocks for optoelectronics in devices such as solar cells and, more recently, infrared focal plane arrays. Now that proof of concept of these devices has been established, their optimization requires a deeper understanding of their electronic and optical features to engineering their optoelectronic properties accurately. Though PbS NCs have been extensively investigated, the complex optical index of PbS NC thin films remains mostly unknown. Some previous works have unveiled the optical index for this type of material optimized for solar cells (excitonic peak at 940 nm), but longer wavelengths remain scarce and surface chemistry effects, which are known to be of central importance for the layer doping, are simply unexplored. Here, we conduct a systematic investigation of the complex optical index of PbS NC thin films using broadband spectrally resolved ellipsometry. The obtained results are then compared with simulations combining Tight-Binding (TB) modeling at the NC level and Bruggeman model to expand the results to the film scale. While TB calculation gives the NC optical indices, we extract keys NC film parameters as the NC volume fraction and ligand indices by fitting Bruggeman formula to ellipsometry measurement. We also bring evidence that this joint modeling method can be conducted without the need for ellipsometry data while preserving the main feature of the experimental result. Finally, the unveiled optical indices are used to model the absorption of short-wave infrared diode stack based on PbS NCs and are relevant for state-of-the-art devices. Our electromagnetic modeling shows that the absorption within the contact is now a major limitation of the current device operated at telecom wavelength

Abstract: International audience; Nanocrystal integration into focal plane arrays requires the development of new photodiode designs combining an efficient charge dissociation with a low dark current. Previously reported architectures based on HgTe/Ag2Te stacks appear to be sub-optimal for cutoff wavelengths below 2.5 µm. Here, we show that the introduction of a thin and strongly coupled CdSe layer acting as an electron transport layer and a unipolar barrier drastically improves the electrical performances. This diode achieves a responsivity as high as 0.8 A•W-1 , corresponding to an internal efficiency above 90 % for a 2 µm cutoff wavelength. The specific detectivity is close to 10 11 Jones at room temperature and reaches 9x10 11 Jones at 200 K, the highest value reported for HgTe nanocrystal-based photodiode with operation around 2 µm. The diode time response can be as short as 200 ns and appears to be limited by band bending dynamics as revealed by time-resolved photoemission measurements.

Abstract: International audience; Thanks to their narrow band gap nature and fairly high carrier mobility, HgTe nanocrystals are of utmost interest for optoelectronics beyond the telecom window (λ>1.55 µm). In particular, they offer an interesting cost-effective alternative to the well-developed InGaAs technology. However, in contrast to PbS, far less work has been dedicated to the integrating this material in photodiodes. In the shortwave infrared, HgTe NCs have a more p-type character than in the mid wave infrared, thus promoting the development of new electron transport layers with an optimized band alignment. As for perovskites, HgTe NCs present a fairly deep band gap with respect to vacuum. Thus, we were motivated by the strategy developed for perovskite solar cells, for which SnO2 has led to the best performing devices. Here, we explore the following stack made of SnO2/HgTe/Ag2Te in which the SnO2 and Ag2Te layers behave as electron and hole extractors respectively. Using X-ray photoemission, we show that SnO2 presents a nearly optimal band alignment with HgTe to efficiently filter the hole dark current while letting the photoelectrons flow. The obtained I-V curve exhibits an increased rectifying behavior, and the diode stack presents a high internal efficiency for the diode (above 60%) and an external quantum efficiency that is mostly limited by the absorption magnitude. Furthermore, we tackle a crucial challenge for the transfer of such diode onto readout circuits which prevents backside illumination. We also demonstrate that the diode stack is reversible with a partly transparent conducting electrode on top while preserving the device's responsivity. Finally, we show that such SnO2 layer is also beneficial for electron injection and leads to enhanced electroluminescent signal as the diode is operated under forward bias. This work is an essential step toward the design of a focal plane array with an HgTe NCs-based photodiode.

Abstract: International audience; HgTe nanocrystals, thanks to quantum confinement, present a broadly tunable band gap all over the infrared spectral range. In addition, significant efforts have been dedicated to the design of infrared sensors with an absorbing layer made of nanocrystals. However, most efforts have been focused on single pixel sensors. Nanocrystals offer an appealing alternative to epitaxially grown semiconductors for infrared imaging by reducing the material growth cost and easing the coupling to the readout circuit. Here we propose a strategy to design an infrared focal plane array from a single fabrication step. The focal plane array (FPA) relies on a specifically designed readout circuit enabling in plane electric field application and operation in photoconductive mode. We demonstrate a VGA format focal plane array with a 15 µm pixel pitch presenting an external quantum efficiency of 4-5% (15 % internal quantum efficiency) for a cutoff around 1.8 µm and operation using Peltier cooling only. The FPA is compatible with 200 fps imaging full frame and imaging up to 340 fps is demonstrated by driving a reduced area of the FPA. In the last part of the paper, we discuss the cost of such sensors and show that the latter is only driven by labor costs while we estimate the cost of the NC film to be in the 10-20 € range.

Abstract: International audience; Nanocrystals have reached a high level of maturity, enabling their integration into optoelectronic devices. The next challenge is the combination of several types of devices into one complex system to achieve better on-chip integration. Here, we focus on an all-HgTe-nanocrystal active imaging setup operating in the shortwave infrared. We first focus on the design of an optimized infrared light emitting diode (LED). We show that a halide technology processing enables an increase of the electroluminescence signal by a factor of 3, while preserving a low turn-on voltage and a high brightness (3 W.sr-1 .m-2). We then unveil the degradation mechanism of this LED under continuous operation and show a shift from band edge to trap emission. This degradation process can be strongly reduced thanks to the encapsulation and the thermal control of the LED. Lastly, we image the infrared emission of the LED using a focal plane array whose active layer is also made of HgTe nanocrystals, paving the way for all-nanocrystal-based active imaging setups.

Abstract: II–VI two-dimensional (2D) nanoplatelets (NPLs) exhibit the narrowest optical features among nanocrystals (NCs). This property remains true for Hg-based NPLs, despite a cation exchange procedure to obtain them from Cd-based NPLs, which leads to structural defects (poorly defined edges and voids) inducing inhomogeneous broadening. Here, we propose an optimized procedure for which a solvent, surface chemistry, and reaction conditions are rationally considered. The procedure is applied to the growth of alloyed HgSe1–xTex NPLs with various compositions. We report a bright photoluminescence for all compositions. Structural properties being now well defined, it is possible to study the electronic properties of these objects. To do so, we combine k·p modeling of quantum-confined structures with X-ray photoemission. In particular, we clarify the origin of the similarity between CdTe and HgTe NPLs absorption spectra despite their vastly differing bulk band structures. Finally, static- and time-resolved photoemission unveil a crossover from n- to p-type behavior in HgSe1–xTex NPLs while increasing the Te content.

Abstract: International audience; HgTe colloidal nanocrystals (NCs) have become a promising building block for infrared optoelectronics. Despite their cubic zinc blende lattice, HgTe NCs tend to grow in a multipodic fashion, leading to poor shape and size control. Strategies to obtain HgTe NCs with well-controlled sizes and shapes remain limited and sometimes challenging to handle, increasing the need for a new growth process. Here, we explore a synthetic route via seeded growth. In this approach, the small HgTe seeds are nucleated in the first step, and they show narrow and bright photoluminescence with 75% quantum yield in the near infrared region. Once integrated into Light emitting diodes (LEDs), these seeds lead to devices with high radiance up to 20 WSr-1 m-2 and a long lifetime. Heating HgTe seeds formed at the early stage leads to the formation of sphere-shaped HgTe with tunable band edges from 2 to 4 µm. Last, the electronic transport tests conducted on sphere-shaped HgTe NC arrays reveals enhanced mobility and stronger temperature dependence than the multipodic shaped particles.

Abstract: International audience; HgTe nanocrystals (NCs) enable broadly tunable infrared absorption, now commonly used to design light sensors. This material tends to grow under multipodic shapes and does not present well-defined size distributions. Such point generates traps and reduces the particle packing, leading to a reduced mobility. It is thus highly desirable to comprehensively explore the effect of the shape on their performance. Here, we show, using a combination of electron tomography and tight binding simulations, that the charge dissociation is strong within HgTe NCs, but poorly shape dependent. Then, we design a dual-gate field-effect-transistor made of tripod HgTe NCs and use it to generate a planar p–n junction, offering more tunability than its vertical geometry counterpart. Interestingly, the performance of the tripods is higher than sphere ones, and this can be correlated with a stronger Te excess in the case of sphere shapes which is responsible for a higher hole trap density.

Abstract: International audience; As narrow band gap nanocrystals become a viable building block for the design of infrared sensors, device design needs to match with their actual operating conditions. While in the near IR and shortwave infrared room temperature operation have been demonstrated, longer wavelengths still require low temperature operation requiring specific design. Here, we discuss how field-effect transistors (FETs) can be compatible with low temperature detection. To reach this goal two key developments are proposed. First, we report gating of nanocrystal films from SrTiO3 used as a ferroelectric material leading to high gate capacitance with leakage and breakdown free operation in the 4-100 K range. Secondly, we demonstrate that this FET is compatible with a plasmonic resonator which role is to achieve strong light absorption from a thin film used as the channel of the FET. Combining three resonances, broad band absorption from 1.5 to 3 µm reaching 30% is demonstrated. Finally combining gate and enhanced light matter coupling, we show that detectivity can be as high as 10 12 jones for a device presenting a 3 µm cutoff wavelength and 30 K operation.

Abstract: International audience; Nanocrystals (NCs) have gained considerable attention for their broadly tunable absorption from the UV to the THz range. Nevertheless, their optical features suffer from a lack of tunability once integrated into optoelectronic devices. Here, we show that tunable absorption with bias can be obtained by coupling a HgTe NC array with a plasmonic resonator. Up to 15 meV blueshift can be achieved from a 3-µm absorbing wavelength structure under a 3 V bias voltage when the NC exciton is coupled with a mode of the resonator. We demonstrate that the blueshift arises from the interplay between hopping transport and inhomogeneous absorption due to the presence of the photonic structure. The observed tunable spectral response is qualitatively reproduced in simulation by introducing a bias-dependent diffusion length in the charge transport. This work expands the realm of existing NC-based devices and paves the way towards light modulators.

Abstract: International audience; Lead sulfide (PbS) colloidal quantum dots-based photodiodes are remarkable structures obtained via colloidal engineering because of their outstanding optoelectronic performances. They combine surface ligand engineering to design a p-n junction with all solution processability. Here we investigate the PbS diode electronic structure combining static and dynamic photoemissions with transport measurements. We show that the n-type nature of the I-capped PbS CQDs shifts the valence band away from the Fermi level compared to the thiol capped nanocrystals. This change in majority carriers can be probed using time resolved X-ray photoemission spectroscopy (TRXPS). We also prove that the photo-induced binding energy shift depends on the nanoparticle surface chemistry. Finally, we demonstrate the ability of TRXPS to selectively probe the electronic structure of each side of an interface. We explore the PbS/MoO3 interface used as hole extractor in the PbS solar cell, using this method. We demonstrate that the PbS layer photosensitizes the MoO3 layer and that the two layers have a quasi-rigid electrostatic coupling. We identify the band bending occurring on the PbS(EDT)/MoO3 to be a limiting factor for the device performance and suggest strategies to overcome this limitation.

Abstract: International audience; To date defect-tolerance electronic structure of Lead halide perovskite nanocrystals is limited to optical feature in the visible range. Here, we demonstrate that IR sensitization of formamidinium lead iodine (FAPI) nanocrystals array can be obtained by its doping with PbS nanocrystals. In this hybrid array, absorption comes from the PbS nanocrystals while transport is driven by the perovskite which reduces the dark current compared to pristine PbS. In addition, we fabricate a field-effect transistor using a high capacitance ionic glass made of hybrid FAPI/PbS nanocrystal arrays. We show that the hybrid material has an n-type nature with an electron mobility of 2 x 10-3 cm2 V-1s-1. However, the dark current reduction is mostly balanced by a loss of absorption. To overcome this limitation, we couple the FAPI/PbS hybrid to a guided mode resonator, that can enhance the infrared light absorption.

Abstract: International audience; For short wave infrared (SWIR) sensing, InGaAs is the leading technology combining high carrier mobility, high homogeneity and complete control over n-top doping. In the meanwhile, numerous alternative materials have tried to compete with InGaAs. Among them, colloidal nanocrystals with narrow band gap can address the current issue in designing cost-effective sensors for the SWIR range. Rather than pitting these two materials against each other, here we design a synergistic duo in which HgTe nanocrystals are used to broaden the spectral range of InGaAs while lifting the lattice matching constraints. We propose a diode geometry where a p-type HgTe NC array is coupled with n-type InGaAs wires which are used as high mobility (µ>1000 cm 2 .V-1 s-1) minority carrier extractors. This approach also demonstrates that Van der Waals heterostructures are not limited to graphene-like materials and that bulk-like III-V semiconductors can also be light sensitized by colloidal nanoparticles. This work paves the way toward further synergies between epitaxially grown and colloidally grown semiconductors for infrared detection.

Abstract: International audience; Infrared nanocrystals are promising building blocks for the design of low-cost infrared sensors. Vertical geometry diode is, among possible geometries, the one that has led to the best performance so far. However, this geometry suffers from a lack of tunability after its fabrication, slowing down possible improvements. Here, we demonstrate gate control on a vertical diode in which the active layer is made of HgTe NCs absorbing in the extended short-wave infrared (2.5 μm). To reach this goal, we take advantage of the electrostatic transparency of graphene, combined with the high capacitance LaF3 ionic glass to design a gate tunable photodiode. The latter behaves as a work function-tunable electrode which lets the gate-induced electric field tune the carrier density within the nanocrystal film. In particular, we show that the gate allows to tune the band profile leading to more efficient charge extraction and thus an enhanced photoresponse (×4 compared to the device with a floating gate). This work also demonstrates that photoelectron extraction can still be improved in the existing diode, by better controlling the doping profile of the stack.This project is supported by a ERC starting grant blackQD (Grant No. 756225).
