Abstract
Instead of the current method of transmitting voltage or current signals in electronic circuit operation, light offers an alternative to conventional logic, allowing for the implementation of new logic concepts through interaction with light. This manuscript examines the use of light in implementing new logic concepts as an alternative to traditional logic circuits and as a future technology. This article provides an overview of how to implement logic operations using light rather than voltage or current signals using optoelectronic materials such as 2D materials, metal-oxides, carbon structures, polymers, small molecules, and perovskites. This review covers the various technologies and applications of using light to dope devices, implement logic gates, control logic circuits, and generate light as an output signal. Recent research on logic and the use of light to implement new functions is summarized. This review also highlights the potential of optoelectronic logic for future technological advancements.

Abstract
Widening the photoresponse range while enhancing the electrical properties of semiconductors could reduce the complexity and cost of photodetectors or increase the power conversion efficiency of solar cells. Surface doping through charge transfer with organic species is one of the most effective and widely used approaches to achieve this aim. It usually features easier preparation over other doping methods but is still limited by the low physicochemical stability and high cost of the used organic species or low improvement of electrical properties. This work shows unprecedented surface doping of semiconductors with highly stable, easily obtained, and strong electron-accepting viologen components, realizing the significant improvement of both the photoresponse range and conductivity. Coating the chalcogenide semiconductor KGaS2 with dimethyl viologen dichloride (MV) yields a charge-transfer complex (CTC) on the surface, which broadens the photoresponse range by nearly 300 nm and improves the conductivity by 5 orders of magnitude. The latter value surpasses all records obtained by surface doping through charge transfer with organic species.

Abstract
A full integration of miniaturized transparent energy device (lithium-ion battery), electronic device (thin-film transistor) and sensing device (photodetector) to form a monolithic integrated microsystem greatly enhances the functions of transparent electronics. Here, InGaZnO is explored to prepare the above devices and microsystem due to its multifunctional properties. A transparent lithium-ion battery with InGaZnO as anode (capacity~9.8 μAh cm-2) is proposed as the on-chip power source. Then, thin-film transistor with InGaZnO as channel (mobility~23.3 cm2 V-1 s-1) and photodetector with InGaZnO as photosensitive layer (responsivity~0.35 A W-1) are also prepared on the substrate for constructing an fully integrated transparent microsystem. Each device displays acceptable performance. Moreover, alternating-current signals can be successfully charged into the lithium-ion battery by using the thin-film transistor as the on-chip rectifier and also the photodetector works well by using the charged battery as the on-chip power, demonstrating collaborative capabilities of each device to achieve systematic functions.

ADVANCED SCIENCE (WEINHEIM, BADEN-WURTTEMBERG, GERMANY) 2023; 10:e2207022.

Abstract
Few-layer transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) and their combination as van der Waals heterostructures provide a promising platform for high-performance optoelectronic devices. However, the ultrathin thickness of TMD flakes limits efficient light trapping and absorption, which triggers the hybrid construction with optical resonant cavities for enhanced light absorption. The optical structure enriched photodetectors can also be wavelength- and polarization-sensitive but require complicated fabrication. Herein, a new-type TMD-based photodetector embedded with nanoslits is proposed to enhance light trapping. Taking ReS2 as an example, strong anisotropic Mie-type optical responses arising from the intrinsic in-plane anisotropy and nanoslit-enhanced anisotropy are discovered. Owing to the nanoslit-enhanced optical resonances and band engineering, excellent photodetection performances are demonstrated with high responsivity of 27 A W-1 and short rise/decay times of 3.7/3.7 ms. More importantly, through controlling the angle between the nanoslit orientation and the polarization direction to excite different resonant modes, polarization-sensitive photodetectors with anisotropy ratios from 5.9 to 12.6 can be achieved, representing one of the most polarization-sensitive TMD-based photodetectors. The depth and orientation of nanoslits are demonstrated crucial for optimizing the anisotropy ratio. The findings bring an effective scheme to construct high-performance and polarization-sensitive photodetectors.

Abstract
A rational regulation of the solar water splitting reaction pathway by adjusting the surface composition and phase structure of catalysts is a substantial approach to ameliorate the sluggish reaction kinetics and improve the energy conversion efficiency. In this study, we demonstrate a nanocrystalline iron pyrophosphate (Fe4(P2O7)3, FePy)-regulated hybrid overlayer with amorphous iron phosphate (FePO4, FePi) on the surface of metal oxide nanostructure with boosted photoelectrochemical (PEC) water oxidation. By manipulating the facile electrochemical surface treatment followed by the phosphating process, nanocrystalline FePy is localized in the FePi amorphous overlayer to form a heterogeneous hybrid structure. The FePy-regulated hybrid overlayer (FePy@FePi) results in significantly enhanced PEC performance with long-term durability. Compared with the homogeneous FePi amorphous overlayer, FePy@FePi can improve the charge transfer efficiency more significantly, from 60% of FePi to 79% of FePy@FePi. Our density-functional theory calculations reveal that the coexistence of FePi and FePy phases on the surface of metal oxide results in much better oxygen evolution reaction kinetics, where the FePi was found to have a typical down-hill reaction for the conversion from OH* to O2, while FePy has a low free energy for the formation of OH*.

Abstract
Nanostructured surfaces with designed optical functionalities, such as metasurfaces, allow efficient harvesting of light at the nanoscale, enhancing light-matter interactions for a wide variety of material combinations. Exploiting light-driven matter excitations in these artificial materials opens up a new dimension in the conversion and management of energy at the nanoscale. In this review, we outline the impact, opportunities, applications, and challenges of optical metasurfaces in converting the energy of incoming photons into frequency-shifted photons, phonons, and energetic charge carriers. A myriad of opportunities await for the utilization of the converted energy. Here we cover the most pertinent aspects from a fundamental nanoscopic viewpoint all the way to applications.

Abstract
The technological ability to detect a wide spectrum range of illuminated visible-to-NIR is substantially improved for an amorphous metal oxide semiconductor, indium gallium zinc oxide (IGZO), without employing an additional photoabsorber. The fundamentally tuned morphology via structural engineering results in the creation of nanopores throughout the entire thickness of ∼30 nm. See-through nanopores have edge functionalization with vacancies, which leads to a large density of substates near the conduction band minima and valence band maxima. The presence of nanoring edges with a high concentration of vacancies is investigated using chemical composition analysis. The process of creating a nonporous morphology is sophisticated and is demonstrated using a wafer-scale phototransistor array. The performance of the phototransistors is assessed in terms of photosensitivity (S) and photoresponsivity (R); both are of high magnitudes (S = 8.6 × 104 at λex = 638 nm and Pinc = 512 mW cm2-; R = 120 A W1- at Pinc = 2 mW cm2- for the same λex). Additionally, the 7 × 5 array of 35 phototransistors is effective in sensing and reproducing the input image by responding to selectively illuminated pixels.

Abstract
Thin−film transistors using metal oxides have been investigated extensively because of their high transparency, large area, and mass production of metal oxide semiconductors. Compatibility with conventional semiconductor processes, such as photolithography of the metal oxide offers the possibility to develop integrated circuits on a larger scale. In addition, combinations with other materials have enabled the development of sensor applications or neuromorphic devices in recent years. Here, this paper provides a timely overview of metal−oxide−based thin−film transistors focusing on emerging applications, including flexible/stretchable devices, integrated circuits, biosensors, and neuromorphic devices. This overview also revisits recent efforts on metal oxide−based thin−film transistors developed with high compatibility for integration to newly reported applications.
