Cover Story: Ideal materials and good device structures are crucial to achieving high-performance photodetectors. We utilized black phosphorus (BP) and single-walled carbon nanotube (SWCNT) films to construct vertical heterostructures, resulting in a good photovoltaic effect and, consequently, high-performance infrared detectors. The devices behaved as a diode in the dark with a high rectification ratio, ~104. The photodetector demonstrated a large external power conversion efficiency (η) of 7.5% and a high specific detectivity of 3.1 × 109 Jones. This η was highest among those for photovoltaic devices fabricated with the SWCNTs or the heterostructures based on 2D materials. This work showcases the potential of BP and SWCNTs in the detection field. View this paper
