Abstract
We demonstrate a high-performance solution-processed polymer photodetector (PPD) whose detectivity () exceeds Jones over almost the entire range of visible light. PPDs processed from a chlorobenzene solution using 1,8-diiodooctane (DIO) as an additive exhibit large crystalline domains with long-range order, in contrast to the featureless morphology of PPDs processed with pure solvent. Moreover, PPDs processed with DIO exhibit higher charge carrier mobility, and thus high photoconductive gain without compromising long carrier lifetime. Consequently, a high-loading ratio of DIO (3%) yielded a PPD whose in the visible range was over threefold higher than that of PPD without DIO.
