摘要
En 中文
Multiple exciton generation (MEG) is a widely studied phenomenon in semiconductor nanocrystals and quantum dots, aimed at improving the energy conversion efficiency of solar cells. MEG is the process wherein incident photon energy is significantly larger than the band gap, and the resulting photoexcited carriers relax by generating additional electron-hole pairs, rather than decaying by heat dissipation. Here, we present an experimental demonstration of MEG in a prototype strongly correlated material, VO2, through photocurrent spectroscopy and ultrafast transient reflectivity measurements, both of which are considered the most prominent ways for detecting MEG in working devices. The key result of this paper is the observation of MEG at room temperature (in a correlated insulating phase of VO2), and the estimated threshold for MEG is 3Eg. We demonstrate an escalated photocurrent due to MEG in VO2, and quantum efficiency is found to exceed 100%. Our studies suggest that this phenomenon is a manifestation of expeditious impact ionization due to stronger electron correlations and could be exploited in a large number of strongly correlated materials.
