Abstract
Currently, the improvement in the processing capacity of traditional processors considerably lags behind the demands of real-time image processing caused by the advancement of photodetectors and the widespread deployment of high-definition image sensors. Therefore, achieving real-time image processing at the sensor level has become a prominent research domain in the field of photodetector technology. This goal underscores the need for photodetectors with enhanced multifunctional integration capabilities than can perform real-time computations using optical or electrical signals. In this study, we employ an innovative p-type semiconductor GaTe0.5Se0.5 to construct a polarization-sensitive wide-spectral photodetector. Leveraging the wide-spectral photoresponse, we realize three-band imaging within a wavelength range of 390-810 nm. Furthermore, real-time image convolutional processing is enabled by configuring appropriate convolution kernels based on the polarization-sensitive photocurrents. The innovative design of the polarization-sensitive wide-spectral GaTe0.5Se0.5-based photodetector represents a notable contribution to the domain of real-time image perception and processing.

Abstract
On-chip polarization-sensitive photodetectors are highly desired for ultra-compact optoelectronic systems. It has been demonstrated that polarization-sensitive photodetection can be realized using intrinsic chiral and anisotropy materials. However, these photodetectors can only realize the detection of either circularly polarized light (CPL) or linear polarized light (LPL) and are not applicable to multiple-polarization-sensitive photodetection. Herein, we experimentally demonstrate a metasurface-integrated semiconductor to realize multiple-polarization-sensitive photodetection at visible wavelengths. This device is composed of a MoSe2 monolayer on an H-shaped plasmonic nanostructure. The geometric chirality and anisotropy of the H-shaped nanostructure result in CPL and LPL resolved optical responses. By integrating a plasmonic metasurface with monolayer MoSe2, we converted polarization-sensitive optical absorption to the polarization-sensitive photocurrent of the device through the photoconductive effect. Polarization-sensitive photocurrent responses to both CPL and LPL are systematically investigated, which demonstrate a high photocurrent circular dichroism (CD) of 0.35 at a wavelength of 810 nm and photocurrent linear polarization (LP) of 0.4 at a wavelength of 633 nm. Our results provide a potential pathway to realize multiple-polarization-sensitive applications in medicine analysis, biology, and remote sensing.

Abstract
Polarization-sensitive photodetectors have attracted considerable attention owing to their potential application prospects in navigation, optical switching, and communication. However, it remains challenging to develop a facile and effective strategy to simultaneously meet the demands of low power consumption, high performance, and excellent polarization sensitivity. Herein, a series of low-symmetry two-dimensional (2D) ReSe2 Schottky photodetectors with geometry-asymmetric contacts are constructed. These devices exhibit excellent photoelectrical performance and impressive polarization sensitivity in the self-powered mode owing to the difference in the Schottky barrier height induced by the asymmetric contact areas, interfacial states, and thickness difference. Particularly, an outstanding responsivity of 379 mA/W, a decent specific detectivity of 6.8 × 1011 Jones, and a high light on/off ratio (Ilight/Idark) of over 105 under 635 nm light illumination are achieved. Scanning photocurrent mapping (SPCM) measurements further confirm that the ReSe2/drain overlapped region (corresponding to the smaller contact area side) with a higher Schottky barrier height plays a dominant role in the generation of photocurrent. Furthermore, the proposed device displays impressive polarization ratios (PRs) of 3.1 and 3.6 at zero bias under 635 and 808 nm irradiation, respectively. The high-resolution single-pixel imaging capability is also demonstrated. This work reveals the great potential of the ReSe2 Schottky photodetector with geometry-asymmetric contacts for high-performance, self-powered, and polarization-sensitive photodetection.

Abstract
Novel 2D materials with low-symmetry structures exhibit great potential applications in developing monolithic polarization-sensitive photodetectors with small volume. However, owing to the fact that at least half of them presented a small anisotropic factor of ≈2, comprehensive performance of present polarization-sensitive photodetectors based on 2D materials is still lower than the practical application requirements. Herein, a self-driven photodetector with high polarization sensitivity using a broken-gap ReSe2 /SnSe2 van der Waals heterojunction (vdWH) is demonstrated. Anisotropic ratio of the photocurrent (Imax /Imin ) could reach 12.26 (635 nm, 179 mW cm-2 ). Furthermore, after a facile combination of the ReSe2 /SnSe2 device with multilayer graphene (MLG), Imax /Imin of the MLG/ReSe2 /SnSe2 can be further increased up to13.27, which is 4 times more than that of pristine ReSe2 photodetector (3.1) and other 2D material photodetectors even at a bias voltage. Additionally, benefitting from the synergistic effect of unilateral depletion and photoinduced tunneling mechanism, the MLG/ReSe2 /SnSe2 device exhibits a fast response speed (752/928 µs) and an ultrahigh light on/off ratio (105 ). More importantly, MLG/ReSe2 /SnSe2 device exhibits excellent potential applications in polarized imaging and polarization-coded optical communication with quaternary logic state without any power supply. This work provides a novel feasible avenue for constructing next-generation smart polarization-sensitive photodetector with low energy consumption.

Abstract
The vector characteristics of light and the vectorial transformations during its transmission lay a foundation for polarized photodetection of objects, which broadens the applications of related detectors in complex environments. With the breakthrough of low-dimensional materials (LDMs) in optics and electronics over the past few years, the combination of these novel LDMs and traditional working modes is expected to bring new development opportunities in this field. Here, the state-of-the-art progress of LDMs, as polarization-sensitive components in polarized photodetection and even the imaging, is the main focus, with emphasis on the relationship between traditional working principle of polarized photodetectors (PPs) and photoresponse mechanisms of LDMs. Particularly, from the view of constitutive equations, the existing works are reorganized, reclassified, and reviewed. Perspectives on the opportunities and challenges are also discussed. It is hoped that this work can provide a more general overview in the use of LDMs in this field, sorting out the way of related devices for "more than Moore" or even the "beyond Moore" research.

Abstract
Polarization imaging presents advantages in capturing spatial, spectral, and polarization information across various spectral bands. It can improve the perceptual ability of image sensors and has garnered more applications. Despite its potential, challenges persist in identifying band information and implementing image enhancement using polarization imaging. These challenges often necessitate integrating spectrometers or other components, resulting in increased complexities within image processing systems and hindering device miniaturization trends. Here, the characteristics of anisotropic absorption reversal are systematically elucidated in pucker-like group IV-VI semiconductors MX (M = Ge, Sn; X = S, Se) through theoretical predictions and experimental validations. Additionally, the fundamental mechanisms behind anisotropy reversal in different bands are also explored. The photodetector is constructed by utilizing MX as a light-absorbing layer, harnessing polarization-sensitive photoresponse for virtual imaging. The results indicate that the utilization of polarization reversal photodetectors holds advantages in achieving further multifunctional integration within the device structure while simplifying its configuration, including band information identification and image enhancement. This study provides a comprehensive analysis of polarization reversal mechanisms and presents a promising and reliable approach for achieving dual-band image band identification and image enhancement without additional auxiliary components.

Abstract
Understanding the characteristics of intrinsic defects in crystals is of great interest in many fields, from fundamental physics to applied materials science. Combined investigations of scanning tunneling microscopy/spectroscopy (STM/S) and density functional theory (DFT) are conducted to understand the nature of Se vacancy defects in monolayer (ML) ReSe2 grown on a graphene substrate. Among four possible Se vacancy sites, we identify the Se4 vacancy close to the Re layer by registry between STM topography and DFT simulated images. The Se4 vacancy is also thermodynamically favored in formation energy calculations, supporting its common observation via STM. dI/dV spectroscopy shows that the Se4 vacancy has a defect state at around -1.0 V, near the valence band maximum (EVBM). DOS calculations done for all four Se vacancies indicate that only the Se4 vacancy presents such a defect state near EVBM, confirming experimental observations. Our work provides valuable insights into the behavior of ML ReSe2/graphene heterojunctions containing naturally occurring Se vacancies, which may have strong implications in electronic device applications.

Abstract
In recent years, polarization-sensitive photodiodes based on one-dimensional/two-dimensional (1D/2D) van der Waals (vdWs) heterostructures have garnered significant attention due to the high specific surface area, strong orientation degree of 1D structures, and large photo-active area and mechanical flexibility of 2D structures. Therefore, they are applicable in wearable electronics, electrical-driven lasers, image sensing, optical communication, optical switches, etc. Herein, 1D Bi2O2Se nanowires have been successfully synthesized via chemical vapor deposition. Impressively, the strongest Raman vibration modes can be achieved along the short edge (y-axis) of Bi2O2Se nanowires with high crystalline quality, which originate from Se and Bi vacancies. Moreover, the Bi2O2Se/MoSe2 photodiode designed with type-II band alignment demonstrates a high rectification ratio of 103. Intuitively, the photocurrent peaks are mainly distributed in the overlapped region under the self-powered mode and reverse bias, within the wavelength range of 400-nm. The resulting device exhibits excellent optoelectrical performances, including high responsivities (R) and fast response speed of 656 mA/W and 350/380 μs (zero bias) and 17.17 A/W and 100/110 μs (-1 V) under 635 nm illumination, surpassing the majority of reported mixed-dimensional photodiodes. The most significant feature of our photodiode is its highest photocurrent anisotropic ratio of ∼2.2 (-0.8 V) along the long side (x-axis) of Bi2O2Se nanowires under 635 nm illumination. The above results reveal a robust and distinctive correlation between structural defects and polarized orientation for 1D Bi2O2Se nanowires. Furthermore, 1D Bi2O2Se nanowires appear to be a great potential candidate for high-performance rectifiers, polarization-sensitive photodiodes, and phototransistors based on mixed vdWs heterostructures.

Abstract
Self-powered photodetectors have triggered widespread attention because of the requirement of Internet of Things (IoT) application and low power consumption. However, it is challenging to simultaneously implement miniaturization, high quantum efficiency, and multifunctionalization. Here, we report a high-efficiency and polarization-sensitive photodetector enabled by two-dimensional (2D) WSe2/Ta2NiSe5/WSe2 van der Waals (vdW) dual heterojunctions (DHJ) along with a sandwich-like electrode pair. On account of enhanced light collection efficiency and two opposite built-in electric fields at the hetero-interfaces, the DHJ device achieves not only a broadband spectral response of 400-1550 nm but outstanding performance under 635 nm light illumination including an ultrahigh external quantum efficiency (EQE) of 85.5%, a pronounced power conversion efficiency (PCE) of 1.9%, and a fast response speed of 420/640 μs, which is much better than that of the WSe2/Ta2NiSe5 single heterojunction (SHJ). Significantly, based on the strong in-plane anisotropy of 2D Ta2NiSe5 nanosheets, the DHJ device shows competitive polarization sensitivities of 13.9 and 14.8 under 635 and 808 nm light, respectively. Furthermore, an excellent self-powered visible imaging capability based on the DHJ device is demonstrated. These results pave a promising platform for realizing self-powered photodetectors with high performance and multifunctionality.

Abstract
Photodetectors have been applied to pivotal optoelectronic components of modern optical communication, sensing, and imaging systems. As a room-temperature ferroelectric van der Waals semiconductor, 2D α-In2Se3 is a promising candidate for a next-generation optoelectronic material because of its thickness-dependent direct bandgap and excellent optoelectronic performance. Previous studies of photodetectors based on α-In2Se3 have been rarely focused on the modulated relationship between the α-In2Se3 intrinsic ferroelectricity and photoresponsivity. Herein, a simple integrated process and high-performance photodetector based on an α-In2Se3/Si vertical hybrid-dimensional heterojunction was constructed. Our photodetector in the ferroelectric polarization up state accomplishes a self-powered, highly sensitive photoresponse with an on/off ratio of 4.5 × 105 and detectivity of 1.6 × 1013 Jones, and it also shows a fast response time with 43 μs. The depolarization field generated by the remanent polarization of ferroelectrics in α-In2Se3 provides a strategy for enhancement and modulation of photodetection. The negative correlation was discovered because the enhancement photoresponsivity factor of ferroelectric modulation competes with the photovoltaic behavior within the α-In2Se3/Si heterojunction. Our research highlights the great potential of the high-efficiency heterojunction photodetector for future object recognition and photoelectric imaging.

Abstract
The emerging Ruddlesden-Popper two-dimensional perovskite (2D PVK) has recently joined the family of 2D semiconductors as a potential competitor for building van der Waals (vdW) heterostructures in future optoelectronics. However, to date, most of the reported heterostructures based on 2D PVKs suffer from poor spectral response that is caused by intrinsic wide bandgap of constituting materials. Herein, a direct heterointerface bandgap (∼0.4 eV) between 2D PVK and ReS2 is demonstrated. The strong interlayer coupling reduces the energy interval at the heterojunction region so that the heterostructure shows high sensitivity with the spectral response expanding to 2000 nm. The large type-II band offsets exceeding 1.1 eV ensure fast photogenerated carriers separation at the heterointerface. When this heterostructure is used as a self-driven photodetector, it exhibits a record high detectivity up to 1.8 × 1014 Jones, surpassing any reported 2D self-driven devices, and an impressive external quantum efficiency of 68%.

Abstract
An artificial retina system shows a promising potential to achieve fast response, low power consumption, and high integration density for vision sensing systems. Optoelectronic sensors, which can emulate the neurobiological functionalities of retinal neurons, are crucial in the artificial retina systems. Here, we propose a WSe2 phototransistor with asymmetrical van der Waals (vdWs) stacking that can be used as an optoelectronic sensor in artificial retina systems. Through the utilization of the gate-tunable self-powered bidirectional photoresponse of this phototransistor, the neurobiological functionalities of both bipolar cells and cone cells, as well as the hierarchical connectivity between these two types of retinal neurons, are successfully mimicked by a single device. This self-powered bidirectional photoresponse is attributed to the asymmetrical vdWs stacking structure, which enables the transition from an n-p to p+-p homojunction in the WSe2 channel under different polarities of gate bias. Moreover, the detectivity and ON/OFF ratio of this phototransistor reach as high as 1.8 × 1013 Jones and 5.3 × 104, respectively, and a rise/fall time <80 μs is achieved, as well, which reveals good photodetection performance. The proof of this device provides a pathway for the future development of neuromorphic vision devices and systems.

Abstract
Although anisotropic two-dimensional materials have attracted great scientific interest, the anisotropy of those materials is limited to particular crystallographic directions. Herein, with dimension confining, MoS2 nanoscrolls are successfully fabricated by a rolling-up process after dropping an ethanol-water solution on a chemical vapor deposition-grown MoS2 monolayer. The anisotropic vibrational and optical properties are systematically studied by angle-resolved polarized spectroscopy, including Raman, photoluminescence, and reflection measurements. Upon comparing the photoluminescence results between MoS2 nanoscrolls and nanosheets, an obvious PL quenching phenomenon is observed, indicating the efficient separation of photon-induced carriers. Moreover, the time-resolved PL test identifying the lifetime of the carriers is decreased to 303 ps in the nanoscrolls, indicating a higher carrier-transfer efficiency. In summary, our work demonstrates the strong anisotropic optical properties of MoS2 nanorolls, showing the nanoscrolls are a promising candidate for the fabrication of multifunctional devices.

Abstract
The excellent semiconducting properties and ultrathin morphological characteristics allow van der Waals (vdW) heterostructures based on 2D materials to be promising channel materials for the next-generation optoelectronic devices, especially in photodetectors. Although various 2D heterostructure-based photodetectors have been developed, the unavoidable trade-off between responsivity and detectivity remains a critical issue for these devices. Here, an ingenious phototransistor based on WSe2 /WS2 /WSe2 dual-vdW heterostructures is constructed, performing both high responsivity and detectivity. In the charge neutrality point (gate voltage of -15 V and bias voltage of 1 V), this device demonstrates a pronounced photosensitivity, accompanying with high detectivity of 1.9 × 1014 Jones, high responsivity of 35.4 A W-1 , and fast rise/fall time of 3.2/2.5 ms at 405 nm with power density of 60 µW cm-2 . Density functional theory calculations, energy band profiles, and optoelectronic characteristics jointly verify that the high performance is ascribed to the distinctive device design, which not only facilitates the separation of photogenerated carriers but also produces a strong photogating effect. As a feasible application, an automotive radar system is demonstrated, proving that the device has considerable potential for application in vehicle intelligent assisted driving.

Abstract
A selective-area oxidation strategy is developed to polarize high-symmetry 2D layered materials (2DLMs). The dichroic ratio of the derived O-WS2/WS2 photodetector reaches ∼8, which is competitive among state-of-the-art polarization photodetectors. Finite-different time-domain simulations consolidate that the polarization-sensitive photoresponse is associated with anisotropic spacial confinement, which gives rise to distinct dielectric contrasts for linearly polarized light of various directions and thus the polarization-dependent near-field distribution. Furthermore, selective-area oxidation treatment brings about dual effects, comprising the in situ formation of seamless in-plane WS2 homojunctions by thickness tailoring and the formation of out-of-plane O-WS2/WS2 heterojunctions. As a consequence, the recombination of photocarriers is markedly suppressed, resulting in outstanding photosensitivity with the optimized responsivity, external quantum efficiency, and detectivity of 0.161 A/W, 49.4%, and 1.4 × 1011 Jones for an O-WS2/WS2 photodetector in a self-powered mode. A scheme of multiplexing optical communications is revealed by harnessing the intensity and polarization state of light as independent transmission channels. Furthermore, dynamic encryption by leveraging the polarization state as a secret key is proposed. In the end, broad universality is reinforced through the induction of linear dichroism within 2D WSe2 crystals. On the whole, this study provides an additional perspective on polarization optoelectronics based on 2DLMs.

Abstract
Type II vertical heterojunction is a good solution for long-wavelength light detection. Here, we report a rhenium selenide/molybdenum telluride (n-ReSe2/p-MoTe2) photodetector for high-performance photodetection in the broadband spectral range of 405–2000 nm. Due to the low Schottky barrier contact of the ReSe2/MoTe2 heterojunction, the rectification ratio (RR) of ~102 at ±5 V is realized. Besides, the photodetector can obtain maximum responsivity (R = 1.05 A/W) and specific detectivity (D* = 6.66 × 1011 Jones) under the illumination of 655 nm incident light. When the incident wavelength is 1550–2000 nm, a photocurrent is generated due to the interlayer transition of carriers. This compact system can provide an opportunity to realize broadband infrared photodetection.

Abstract
Polarization-resolved photodetection in a compact footprint is of great interest for ultraminiaturized polarimeters to be used in a wide range of applications. However, probing the states of polarization (SOP) in materials with natural anisotropy are usually weak, limited by the material's natural dichroism or diattenuation. Here, a twisted unipolar-barrier van der Waals heterostructure (vdWH) to construct a bias-switchable polarization detection for retrieval of full SOP (from 0 to 180°) for linear polarized incident light is reported. As a demonstration example, this study realizes the concept in a b-AsP/WS2 /b-AsP vdWH relying on the natural anisotropic properties of the materials without using additional plasmonic/metasurface nanostructures to realize linear polarimetry in the mid-infrared range. Polarimetric imaging is further demonstrated with the developed linear polarimetry by directly displaying the Jones-vector-described SOP distribution of certain target object. This method, with the capabilities of detecting full linear SOP, is promising for the next-generation on-chip miniaturized polarimeters.

Abstract
Two-dimensional (2D) materials have been widely used in photodetectors owing to their diverse advantages in device fabrication and manipulation, such as integration flexibility, availability of optical operation through an ultrabroad wavelength band, fulfilling of photonic demands at low cost, and applicability in photodetection with high-performance. Recently, transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDCs), black phosphorus (BP), III-V materials, heterostructure materials, and graphene have emerged at the forefront as intriguing basics for optoelectronic applications in the field of photodetection. The versatility of photonic systems composed of these materials enables their wide range of applications, including facilitation of chemical reactions, speeding-up of responses, and ultrasensitive light detection in the ultraviolet (UV), visible, mid-infrared (MIR), and far-infrared (FIR) ranges. This review provides an overview, evaluation, recent advancements as well as a description of the innovations of the past few years for state-of-the-art photodetectors based on two-dimensional materials in the wavelength range from UV to IR, and on the combinations of different two-dimensional crystals with other nanomaterials that are appealing for a variety of photonic applications. The device setup, materials synthesis, operating methods, and performance metrics for currently utilized photodetectors, along with device performance enhancement factors, are summarized.

Abstract
A grand family of two-dimensional (2D) materials and their heterostructures have been discovered through the extensive experimental and theoretical efforts of chemists, material scientists, physicists, and technologists. These pioneering works contribute to realizing the fundamental platforms to explore and analyze new physical/chemical properties and technological phenomena at the micro-nano-pico scales. Engineering 2D van der Waals (vdW) materials and their heterostructures via chemical and physical methods with a suitable choice of stacking order, thickness, and interlayer interactions enable exotic carrier dynamics, showing potential in high-frequency electronics, broadband optoelectronics, low-power neuromorphic computing, and ubiquitous electronics. This comprehensive review addresses recent advances in terms of representative 2D materials, the general fabrication methods, and characterization techniques and the vital role of the physical parameters affecting the quality of 2D heterostructures. The main emphasis is on 2D heterostructures and 3D-bulk (3D) hybrid systems exhibiting intrinsic quantum mechanical responses in the optical, valley, and topological states. Finally, we discuss the universality of 2D heterostructures with representative applications and trends for future electronics and optoelectronics (FEO) under the challenges and opportunities from physical, nanotechnological, and material synthesis perspectives.

Abstract
Recombination of photogenerated electron-hole pairs dominates the photocarrier lifetime and then influences the performance of photodetectors and solar cells. In this work, we report the design and fabrication of band-aligned van der Waals-contacted photodetectors with atomically sharp and flat metal-semiconductor interfaces through transferred metal integration. A unity factor α is achieved, which is essentially independent of the wavelength of the light, from ultraviolet to near-infrared, indicating effective suppression of charge recombination by the device. The short-circuit current (0.16 μA) and open-circuit voltage (0.72 V) of the band-aligned van der Waals-contacted devices are at least 1 order of magnitude greater than those of band-aligned deposited devices and 2 orders of magnitude greater than those of non-band-aligned deposited devices. High responsivity, detectivity, and polarization sensitivity ratio of 283 mA/W, 6.89 × 1012 cm Hz1/2 W-1, and 3.05, respectively, are also obtained for the device at zero bias. Moreover, the efficient suppression of charge recombination in our air-stable self-powered photodetectors also results in a fast response speed and leads to polarization-sensitive performance.
