High-performance self-powered photodetectors achieved through the pyro-phototronic effect in Si/SnOx/ZnO heterojunctions

Coupling together the pyroelectric effect and the photovoltaic effect is a novel method to significantly enhance the performance of photodetectors. In this work, we make use of this effect through a tri-layered heterojunction of n-Si/p-SnOx/n-ZnO, which takes advantage of the pyroelectric properties...
