Popis: Transition metal phosphorous trichalcogenides (MPX3) have been extensively investigated as photodetectors due to their wide-bandgap semiconductor properties. However, the research involved in the photoresponses at low temperatures remain blank. Here, hexagonal boron nitride (hBN)-encapsulated NiPS3 field effect transistors were fabricated by using the dry-transfer technique, indicating strong stability under atmospheric environments. The NiPS3 devices with the thickness of 10.4 nm, showed broad photoresponses from near-infrared to ultraviolet radiation at the liquid nitrogen temperature, and the minimum of rise time can reach 30 ms under the wavelength of 405 nm. The mechanism of temperature-dependent photoresponses can be deduced by competition between Schottky barrier height and thermal fluctuation. Our findings provide insights into superior phototransistors in few-layered NiPS3 for ultrasensitive light detection.
