Outline

This research aims to develop a high sensitive photodetector, which can detect light at one-photon level, beyond the functional limit of light-sensing, measuring, and imaging. Here, the organic and inorganic semiconductors are chemically combined by a coordination bond at the interface in attempting to create new optical system for conversion of one photon to more than 1000000 electrons of current. This hybrid system may enable high performance sensing of weak light signals such as a moonlight.
