The application of infrared detectors based on epitaxially grown semiconductors such as HgCdTe, InSb and InGaAs is limited by their high cost and difficulty in raising operating temperature. The development of infrared detectors depends on cheaper materials with high carrier mobility, tunable spectral response and compatibility with large-scale semiconductor processes. In recent years, the appearance of mercury telluride colloidal quantum dots (HgTe CQDs) provided a new choice for infrared detection and had attracted wide attention due to their excellent optical properties, solubility processability, mechanical flexibility and size-tunable absorption features. In this review, we summarized the recent progress of HgTe CQDs based infrared detectors, including synthesis, device physics, photodetection mechanism, multi-spectral imaging and focal plane array (FPA).

Abstract Graphene nanoribbon (GNR)-based materials are a promising device material because of their potential high carrier mobility and atomically thin structure. Various approaches have been reported for preparing the GNR-based materials, from bottom-up chemical synthetic procedures to top-down fabrication techniques using lithography of graphene. However, it is still difficult to prepare a large-scale GNR-based material. Here, we develop a procedure to prepare a large-scale GNR network using networked single-layer inorganic nanowires. Vanadium pentoxide (V2O5) nanowires were assembled on graphene with an interfacial layer of a cationic polymer via the electrostatic interaction. A large-scale nanowire network can be prepared on graphene and is stable enough for applying an oxygen plasma. Using plasma etching, a networked graphene structure can be generated. Removing the nanowires results in a networked flat structure whose both surface morphology and Raman spectrum indicate a GNR networked structure. The field-effect device indicates the semiconducting character of the GNR networked structure. This work would be useful for fabricating a large-scale GNR-based material as a platform for GNR junctions for physics and electronic circuits.
