Abstract

Our research interests are mainly focused on the light-matter interactions in 2D materials in the forms of nonlinear light absorption, light modulation (amplitude, phase and polarisation), photo-electrical conversion, wave-guiding and polaritonic behaviours. This talk will give an overview of photonic and optoelectronic device applications based on these optical phenomena in 2D materials [1-5].

Firstly, to overcome the limit light absorption in graphene and obtain large nonlinear optical modulation depth, we developed a serial of new saturable absorbers based on graphene heterostructures and other 2D materials, including graphene/Bi₂Te₃ [6-8], black phosphorus [9-11] and self-doped plasmonic 2D Cu_3-xP nanosheets [12] as well as 2D halide perovskite [13-14]. Secondly, in order to fabricate improved graphene photodetectors working in different spectral ranges, we integrated graphene with other 2D materials with variant electronic structures, for example, graphene/perovskite for visible light detection [15-16], graphene/MoTe₂ and graphene/Cu_3-xP for near infrared light detection [17-18], and graphene-Bi₂Te₃ for broadband infrared light detection [19-20]. We show how photo-gating effect plays a significant role to amplify the photocurrent in the photodetectors as well solar cell device [21]. By fine tuning or aligning the electronic structure, we are able to engineer the depletion width in 2D material heterostructures, such as graphene/WS₂, MoS₂/WS₂ and WSe₂/WS₂ heterojunction [22-26], monolayer-bilayer WSe₂ heterojunction [27] and 2D perovskite p-n junction [28], so as to achieve higher photo-responsivity and large photo-active area.

Lastly, the THz light modulations associated with plasmonic excitation in graphene/Bi₂Te₃, topological insulator Bi₂Te₃, graphene nanoribbon and 3D graphene were investigated using either spectroscopic or real space imaging techniques [29-32]. We developed a surface plasmon resonance (SPR) sensor using antimonene materials, and found that such a sensor using new, more sensitive materials to look for key markers of disease in the body increased detection by up to 10,000 times. [33] In particular, we update our recent progress on the observation of anisotropic and ultra-low-loss polariton propagation along the surface of natural vdW material α-MoO₃.[34] We visualized and verified two new forms of phonon polaritons with elliptic and hyperbolic in-plane dispersion, which have been theoretically predicted but never experimentally observed in natural materials before.

In summary, the advances of optical researches in 2D materials may pave the way for the next generation photonic and optoelectronic device applications.
