研究目的
To develop and demonstrate inkjet-printed UV light sensors based on titanium dioxide and PEDOT:PSS with lateral architecture on plastic substrates, exploring their photoconductive behaviors and potential for low-power applications.
研究成果
The study successfully developed inkjet-printed UV photodetectors with complementary behaviors: TiO2 devices show standard photoconductivity with a 4-order magnitude increase, while PEDOT:PSS/TiO2 bilayers exhibit inverted photoconductivity with a 7-order magnitude decrease. This enables the proposal of low-power, complementary-like photosensitive voltage dividers, though further tuning is needed for optimal performance.
研究不足
The temporal dynamics and on/off currents of pristine TiO2 and PEDOT:PSS/TiO2 devices are unmatched, leading to non-negligible dynamic power consumption in potential voltage dividers. Process variations for tuning device characteristics were not attempted and are left for future investigations.
1：Experimental Design and Method Selection:
The study uses inkjet printing for device fabrication, with a lateral architecture to avoid short circuits. The methodology involves formulating inks compatible with printing and low-temperature processing.
2：Sample Selection and Data Sources:
Devices are fabricated on PEN substrates with specific dimensions. Samples include pure TiO2 devices and PEDOT:PSS/TiO2 bilayers.
3：List of Experimental Equipment and Materials:
Includes TiO2 nanoparticle paste (Dyesol DSL 18NR-T), PEDOT:PSS ink (Clevios P Jet 700 N), fluorosurfactant (Zonyl FS-300), silver ink (ANP Silverjet DGP-40LT-15C), PEN substrates, Fujifilm Dimatix printer cartridges, sonicator, annealing oven, Agilent B1500 Semiconductor Parameter Analyzer, UV light source (fluorescent lamp at 365 nm).
4：Experimental Procedures and Operational Workflow:
TiO2 ink is prepared and sonicated, printed in layers, annealed at 150°C. Silver contacts are printed and annealed at 130°C. For bilayers, PEDOT:PSS is printed and annealed at 100°C. Optoelectronic characterization is performed in a nitrogen glovebox with biasing at 1V and UV exposure at 500 μW/cm2.
5：Data Analysis Methods:
Current-time measurements are analyzed to determine conductivity changes, with data plotted on semilog and linear scales to assess photoresponse dynamics.
