From Design to Prototype: High‐Sensitivity Tri‐Mode Operation Photodetectors Based on 1T‐2H Hybrid MoS2

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This work demonstrates a phase‐engineered MoS2 photodetector that dynamically switches among photocapacitive (PCC), photovoltaic (PV), and photoconductive (PC) modes. By transforming the traditionally parasitic capacitance into an active signal source, the device achieves self‐powered, high‐sensitivity detection with a fast response of 19.2 ms, and a ...
