The scope of this work is to reduce optical crosstalk and thus increasing the device performances with graphene and Si integration. This paper presents the design, fabrication process, and performance evaluation of self-powered individual Graphene/Silicon on Insulator (GSOI) based Schottky barrier photodiode array (PDA) devices. A 4-element GSOI Schottky barrier PDA with separate graphene electrodes is fabricated to examine possible optical crosstalk encountered between each diode in the array structure. Here, monolayer graphene is utilized as hole collecting separate electrode on individually arrayed n-type Si on SOI substrate by photolithography technique. Each diode in the array exhibited a clear rectifying Schottky character. Photoresponse characterizations revealed that all diodes had excellent device performance even in self-powered mode in terms of an Ilight/Idark ratio up to 104, a responsivity of ∼0.12 A/W, a specific detectivity of around 1.6 × 1012 Jones, and a response speed of ∼1.32 μs at 660 nm wavelength. As revealed by optical crosstalk measurement, the device with pixel pitch of 1.5 mm had a total crosstalk of about 0.10% (−60 dB) per array. These results showed that the optical crosstalk between neighboring n-Si elements can be greatly minimized when graphene is used as separated electrode on arrayed Si on SOI substrate. Our study is expected give an insight into the performance characteristics of GSOI PDA devices which have great potential to be used in many technological applications such as multi-wavelength light measurement, level metering, high-speed photometry and position/motion detection. © 2023 Elsevier B.V.Article Citation - WoS: 4Citation - Scopus: 4Light-Induced Modification of the Schottky Barrier Height in Graphene/Si Based Near-Infrared Photodiodes(Elsevier, 2022) Fidan, Mehmet; Dönmez, Gülçin; Yanılmaz, Alper; Ünverdi, Özhan; Çelebi, CemThe impact of light on the Schottky barrier height (SBH) in p-type graphene/n-type Si (p-Gr/n-Si) based near-infrared photodiodes is investigated. Hall effect and optoelectronic transport measurements carried out under illumination of 905 nm wavelength light showed that zero-bias SBH in such photodiodes can be effectively tuned in a range between 0.7 and 0.9 eV consistent with the variation in their open-circuit voltage. Shockley-Read-Hall model, which considers the charge recombination through mid-gap and interface states at the p-Gr/n-Si heterojunction, is used to explain the experimentally observed nonlinear dependence of SBH on the incident light. Light induced tunability of SBH at the graphene/semiconductor heterojunction is of great importance especially for the development of new generation optically driven devices in which graphene acts as a functioning element.
