Graphical Abstract

The significantly enhanced visible and expanded near infrared (NIR) light absorption of monolayer WSe2 on integration with triangular Sb2O3 microresonators in wide thickness and lateral size distributions. As a photodetector, monolayer transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDCs) crystal coupled to Sb2O3 microresonators has been observed to exhibit the enhanced responsivity by at least or nearly 104 order in visible light region and the expanded one of ~ 1 A·W−1 in NIR range, better than most of the reported photodetectors based on monolayer TMDCs.

Abstract

Monolayer (1L) transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDCs) have been attracting tremendous interest in recent years as promising candidate materials in atomic-scale optoelectronic devices due to their direct band gaps (1.5–2.2 eV) and strong light–matter interactions. Unfortunately, their practical applications are limited by low visible light absorption stemming from atomic thickness and negligible infrared response. Here, we report the triangular Sb2O3 microresonators in wide thickness and lateral size distributions grown on 1L TMDCs and their created significant broadband enhancement of light adsorption and photoresponse in 1L WSe2 crystal via coexisting Fabry–Perot and whispering gallery type resonances. As an example of demonstration, 1L WSe2 crystal coupled to Sb2O3 microresonators with widely distributed sizes exhibits the enhanced visible light absorption by up to 5 folds and the simultaneously extended near infrared (NIR) one of more than 50%. For application of 1L WSe2 in photodetection, incorporation of Sb2O3 microresonators leads to significantly enhanced visible light responsivity by ~ 104 order and expanded NIR one of more than 400 mA·W−1. Similar results have been observed in the other 1L W(Mo) dichalcogenides coupled to Sb2O3 microresonators. This work provides a new route for development of the high-performance monolayer TMDCs-based optoelectronic devices.
