Conference Object Fully Flexible, Low-Cost, Environmentally Friendly Yarn-Based Inp/Ag Nw Photodetectors for UV-Visible Light Detection(SPIE, 2025-08-01) Savaş, M.; Akrema, A.; Ocal, S.K.; Erdem, T.We report the fabrication and investigate of a novel photodetector using a heterostructure of InP quantum dots (QDs) and silver nanowires (Ag NWs) incorporated into yarn. This device is simple, scalable, low-cost, flexible, and functions under ambient conditions. Ag NWs and red-emitting InP QDs were separately synthesized via chemical methods and mixed in a specific ratio to coat functional yarns, which were then knitted into fabrics. The photodetector benefits from the excellent electrical conductivity of Ag NWs and the strong optical absorption of InP QDs. It shows enhanced photoelectric response in both UV and visible regions. At 405 nm illumination, the device achieves a photoresponsivity of 5.8 mA W-1 and a detectivity of 2 × 1010 Jones-values comparable to or exceeding those of similar devices. The enhanced performance is attributed to efficient charge transfer enabled by favorable band alignment between Ag NWs and InP QDs, along with synergistic effects from nanostructure dimensionality and quantum confinement. The device's combination of flexibility, sensitivity, and cost-efficiency makes it a strong candidate for wearable UV-visible photodetectors. © 2025 SPIE.

Furthermore, the films used in these devices are usually deposited at elevated temperatures (> 300 degrees C) and under high vacuum, which necessitate further restrictions on the device fabrication. Developing an alternative technology would contribute to the efforts on achieving a sustainable optoelectronics technology. Keeping this in our focus, here we present a simple technique to fabricate visible photodetectors (PDs). These fully solution-processed and transparent metal-semiconductor-metal (MSM) PDs employ silver nanowires (Ag NW) as the transparent electrodes replacing the indium-tin-oxide (ITO) commonly used in optoelectronic devices. By repeatedly spin coating Ag NWs on a glass substrate followed by the coating of zinc oxide nanoparticles, we obtained a highly conductive transparent electrode reaching a sheet resistance of 95 omega/? as measured by the four-probe method. Optical spectroscopy revealed that the transmittance of the Ag NW-ZnO films was 84% at 450 nm while the transmittance of the ITO films was 90% at the same wavelength. Following the formation of the conductive film, we scratched it using a heated surgical blade to open a gap. The scanning electron microscope images indicate that a gap of similar to 30 mu m is opened forming an insulating line. As the active layer, we drop-casted red-emitting CdSe/ZnS core-shell quantum dots (QDs) onto this gap to form a MSM PD. These visible QD-based PDs exhibited responsivities and detectivities up to 8.5 mA/W and 0.95 x 109 Jones, respectively at a bias voltage of 5 V and wavelength of 650 nm. These proof-of-concept PDs show that the environmentally friendly, low-cost, and energy-saving technique presented here can be an alternative to conventional, high-cost, and energy-hungry techniques while fabricating photoconductive devices.
