Article Abstract
We report that aligned nanofibers (ANs) prepared by electrostatic spinning technology as an interfacial layer can significantly enhance the performance of inverted organic photodetectors. With the insertion of ANs of titanium dioxide (TiO2), the optimized organic photodetectors had a highest detectivity of 2.93 × 10(13) Jones at zero bias, which is about 3 times higher than that of a similar organic photodetector without ANs and also markedly higher than that of traditional silicon photodetectors. The performance of the devices with different TiO2 ANs as the interfacial layer was investigated, and the results exhibited that photodetectors with one-way ANs had the highest detectivity and shortest response time. This work provides a new application of nanofibers fabricated by a simple and controllable process in high-performance organic photodetectors.

Photomultiplication-type organic photodetectors (PM-type OPDs) have recently attracted attention. However, the development of polymer donors specifically tailored for this architecture has rarely been reported. In this study, we synthesized benzobisoxazole-based polymer donors incorporating alkylated π-spacers that simultaneously enhance photocurrent density () and suppress dark current density (), leading to high responsivity () and specific detectivity (*).

The exponential growth of data in the information era has pushed conventional optical communication technology to its limitations, including inefficient spectral utilization, slow data rate, and inherent security vulnerabilities. Here, a transformative high-speed organic spectral wireless communication (SWC) technology enabled by a flexible, miniaturized, and high-performance organic hyperspectrometer is proposed that integrates ultrahigh-speed data transmission with hardware-level encryption. By synergistically combining organic photodetector arrays with tunable responsivities and spectral-tunable organic filters, the organic hyperspectrometer achieves a broad spectral detection range of 400 to 900 nm, resolution of 1.

Antimony trisulfide (SbS) has emerged as a promising inorganic semiconductor for optoelectronics due to its distinctive anisotropic crystal structure and suitable bandgap (∼1.7 eV). While hydrothermal synthesis remains challenging for achieving high crystallinity and controlled morphology, we developed an innovative dual‑sulfur precursor strategy utilizing sodium thiosulfate (STS) and thioacetamide (TAA) at a 7:2 M ratio with SbCl.

Bifunctional integration of indoor organic photovoltaics (OPVs) and photodetectors (OPDs) faces fundamental challenges because of incompatible interfacial thermodynamics: indoor OPVs require unimpeded charge extraction under low-light conditions (200-1000 lx), whereas OPDs require stringent suppression of noise current. Conventional hole transport layers (HTLs) fail to satisfy these opposing charge-dynamic requirements concurrently with commercial practicality (large-area uniformity, photostability, and cost-effective manufacturability). This study introduces benzene-phosphonic acid (BPA)-a minimalist self-assembled monolayer (SAM)-based HTL with a benzene core and phosphonic acid anchoring group-enabling cost-effective synthesis and excellent ITO interfacial properties such as energy alignment, uniform monolayer, and stability.

To achieve high detectivity in organic photodetectors, the suppression of the dark current density and the improvement of responsivity are necessary at the same time. In this work, we introduce a polymer donor overlayer on top of the high-acceptor-content bulk heterojunction film to minimize the randomness of charge pathways in the mixed phase of donor/acceptor blends. This design strategy of the active layer successfully suppresses the dark current density to 2.
