摘要

Abstract

Since selective detection of multiple narrow spectral bands in the near-infrared (NIR) region still poses a fundamental challenge

we have

in this work

developed NIR photodetectors (PDs) using photon upconversion nanocrystals (UCNCs) combined with perovskite films. To conquer the relatively high pumping threshold of UCNCs

we designed a novel cascade optical field modulation strategy to boost upconversion luminescence (UCL) by cascading the superlensing effect of dielectric microlens arrays and the plasmonic effect of gold nanorods

which readily leads to a UCL enhancement by more than four orders of magnitude under weak light irradiation. By accommodating multiple optically active lanthanide ions in a core-shell-shell hierarchical architecture

developed PDs on top of this structure can detect three well-separated narrow bands in the NIR region

i.e.

those centered at 808

980

and 1540 nm. Due to the large UCL enhancement

the obtained PDs demonstrate extremely high responsivities of 30.73

23.15

and 12.20 A W

−1

and detectivities of 5.36

3.45

and 1.91 × 10

Jones for 808

980

and 1540 nm light detection

respectively

together with short response times in the range of 80–120 ms. Moreover

we demonstrate for the first time that the response to the excitation modulation frequency of a PD can be employed to discriminate the incident light wavelength. We believe that our work provides novel insight for developing NIR PDs and that it can spur the development of other applications using upconversion nanotechnology.
