Abstract
Flexible shortwave infrared detectors play a crucial role in wearable devices, bioimaging, automatic control, etc. Commercial shortwave infrared detectors face challenges in achieving flexibility due to the high fabrication temperature and rigid material properties. Herein, we develop a high-performance flexible Te0.7Se0.3 photodetector, resulting from the unique 1D crystal structure and small elastic modulus of Te-Se alloying. The flexible photodetector exhibits a broad-spectrum response ranging from 365 to 1650 nm, a fast response time of 6 μs, a broad linear dynamic range of 76 dB, and a specific detectivity of 4.8 × 1010 Jones at room temperature. The responsivity of the flexible detector remains at 93% of its initial value after bending with a small curvature of 3 mm. Based on the optimized flexible detector, we demonstrate its application in shortwave infrared imaging. These results showcase the great potential of Te0.7Se0.3 photodetectors for flexible electronics.

Abstract
Metal halide perovskite films have gained significant attention because of their remarkable optoelectronic performances. However, their poor stability upon the severe environment appears to be one of the main facets that impedes their further commercial applications. Herein, a method to improve the stability of flexible photodetectors under water and humidity environment without encapsulation is reported. The devices are fabricated using the physical vapor deposition method (Pulse Laser Deposition & Thermal Evaporation) under high-vacuum conditions. An amorphous organic Rubrene film with low molecular polarity and high elastic modulus serves as both a protective layer and hole transport layer. After immersed in water for 6000 min, the photoluminescence intensity attenuation of films only decreased by a maximum of 10%. The demonstrator device, based on Rubrene/CsPbBr3 /ZnO heterojunction confirms that the strategy not only enhances device moisture and mechanical stability but also achieves high sensitivity in optoelectronic detection. In self-powered mode, it has a fast response time of 79.4 µs /207.6 µs and a responsivity 124 mA W-1 . Additionally, the absence of encapsulation simplifies the fabrication of complex electrodes, making it suitable for various applications. This study highlights the potential use of amorphous organic films in improving the stability of perovskite-based flexible devices.

Abstract
Here, a photoelectrochemical (PEC) photodetector with good flexibility and high photoresponsivity was successfully fabricated in a vertical structure, where the MXene (Ti2CTx) nanosheet and carbon black electrode were separated by adenosine triphosphate/nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (ATP/NADPH)-incorporated solid-state electrolyte. The photocurrent and photoresponsivity can reach 1.84 μA/cm2 and 8.89 μA/W, respectively, under a light intensity of 90 mW/cm2 at a bias potential of 0.6 V, which are approximately 2.3 times those of Ti2CTx nanosheets. The addition of ATP and NADPH to the electrolyte also leads to a large decrease of the rise time from 0.76 to 0.26 s. Furthermore, the photodetector can continue to function and maintain stability under 45° bending and after 500 cycles of bending, indicating a robust device structure and great flexibility. The performance enhancement of the PEC photodetector can be attributed to the synergistic effect of electrolyte additives on Ti2CTx nanosheets, where ATP and NADPH greatly enhance the circulation and utilization of photogenerated carriers. This work suggests that the incorporation of chloroplast-inspired carrier circulation with two-dimensional nanosheets could achieve efficient light-current conversion, providing a new strategy to improve the performance of PEC-type photodetectors.

Abstract
We present a straightforward and cost-effective method for the fabrication of flexible photodetectors, utilizing tetragonal phase VO2 (A) nanorod (NR) networks. The devices exhibit exceptional photosensitivity, reproducibility, and stability in ambient conditions. With a 2.0 V bias voltage, the device demonstrates a photocurrent switching gain of 1982% and 282% under irradiation with light at wavelengths of 532 nm and 980 nm, respectively. The devices show a fast photoelectric response with rise times of 1.8 s and 1.9 s and decay times of 1.2 s and 1.7 s for light at wavelengths of 532 nm and 980 nm, respectively. In addition, the device demonstrates exceptional flexibility across large-angle bending and maintains excellent mechanical stability, even after undergoing numerous extreme bending cycles. We discuss the electron transport process within the nanorod networks, and propose a mechanism for the modulation of the barrier height induced by light. These characteristics reveal that the fabricated devices hold the potential to serve as a high-performance flexible photodetector.

Abstract
A flexible, multicolor detector based on stacked perovskite layers with graded band gaps was presented. Different perovskite layers generate a series of photocurrents corresponding to light intensities at different wavelengths. Experimentally, the flexible detector demonstrated acceptable long-term stability and temperature stability in the bending state. To demonstrate the advantages of the flexible multicolor detector in biological applications, a tubular-shaped multicolor fluorescence detector that embraces the sample cell was constructed. As a result, the detection limits of three kinds of CdTe quantum dots (QDs) with central wavelengths of 545, 625, and 730 nm were 0.52, 0.85, and 0.43 nM, respectively, which was significantly improved by more than 10 times compared to those of planar detectors. Additionally, the detector was able to detect three kinds of QDs simultaneously in a mixed solution, and the relative deviation was smaller than 10% compared to the preset concentration. These results demonstrate that the flexible stacked perovskite detector and the tubular-shaped detection configuration hold promise for the simultaneous fluorescent detection of multiple biomolecules.

Abstract
Amorphous metal-organic frameworks (aMOFs) start to challenge their crystalline equivalents due to their unique advantages, like lack of grain boundaries, isotropy, flexibility, numerous defects-induced active sites, etc. However, aMOFs are typically synthesized under rigorous conditions, and their properties and applications need to be further explored. In this work, highly transparent p-type amorphous Cu-HHTP films consisting of Cu2+ and 2,3,6,7,10,11-hexahydroxytriphenylene (HHTP) were synthesized using a simple electrostatic spinning method and identified as p-a-Cu-HHTP. Besides, a p-a-Cu-HHTP/n-Si infrared photodetector (PD) operating on a self-powered basis with ultra-high speed (response time of 40 μs) and detectivity (1.2 × 1012 Jones) has been developed, with a response time and detectivity that are record values for a MOF-based photodetector. In particular, the p-a-Cu-HHTP/n-Si PD can withstand high temperatures up to 180 °C without property change. Moreover, a flexible metal-semiconductor-metal photodetector based on p-a-Cu-HHTP is constructed, which shows excellent mechanical stability and photoresponse that remain unchanged after bending 120 times, implying its suitability for wearable optoelectronics. The new method to fabricate aMOFs, the unique p-a-Cu-HHTP, and its PDs initiated in this work opens up a new avenue in organic-inorganic hybrid optoelectronics.

Abstract
For traditional wide-bandgap semiconductor materials, a high-temperature process is unavoidable for improving crystallization quality, so the substrate of the device is greatly limited. In this work, zinc-tin oxide (a-ZTO) amorphous oxide processed by the pulsed laser deposition method was utilized as the n-type layer, which exhibits considerable electron mobility and optical transparency, and can be deposited at room temperature. At the same time, by combining p-type CuI grown by the thermal evaporation method, a vertically structured ultraviolet photodetector based on CuI/ZTO heterojunction was obtained. The detector demonstrates self-powered properties, with an on-off ratio exceeding 104, and rapid response with a rise time of 2.36 ms and a fall time of 1.49 ms. Also, the photodetector shows long-term stability with 92% retention after 5000 s cyclic lighting and maintains reproducible response in frequency dependence measurement. Furthermore, the flexible photodetector on poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) substrates was constructed, exhibiting fast response and durability in the bending state. This is the first time that the heterostructure based on CuI has been applied in the flexible photodetector. The excellent results indicate that the combination of amorphous oxide and CuI has the potential for ultraviolet photodetectors, and will broaden the application range of high-performance flexible/transparent optoelectronic devices in the future.

Abstract
Flexible photodetectors with ultra-broadband sensitivities, fast response, and high responsivity are crucial for wearable applications. Recently, van der Waals (vdW) Weyl semimetals have gained much attention due to their unique electronic band structure, making them an ideal material platform for developing broadband photodetectors from ultraviolet (UV) to the terahertz (THz) regime. However, large-area synthesis of vdW semimetals on a flexible substrate is still a challenge, limiting their application in flexible devices. In this study, centimeter-scale type-II vdW Weyl semimetal, Td -MoTe2 films, are grown on a flexible mica substrate by molecular beam epitaxy. A self-powered and flexible photodetector without an antenna demonstrated an outstanding ability to detect electromagnetic radiation from UV to sub-millimeter (SMM) wave at room temperature, with a fast response time of ≈20 µs, a responsivity of 0.53 mA W-1 (at 2.52 THz), and a noise-equivalent power (NEP) of 2.65 nW Hz-0.5 (at 2.52 THz). The flexible photodetectors are also used to image shielded items with high resolution at 2.52 THz. These results can pave the way for developing flexible and wearable optoelectronic devices using direct-grown large-area vdW semimetals.

Abstract
We report an enhanced performance of flexible titanium nitride/germanium-tin (TiN/GeSn) photodetectors (PDs) with an extended photodetection range based on sub-bandgap absorption. Single-crystalline GeSn membranes transfer-printed on poly(ethylene terephthalate) are integrated with plasmonic TiN to form a TiN/GeSn heterojunction. Formation of the heterojunction creates a Schottky contact between the TiN and GeSn. A Schottky barrier height of 0.49 eV extends the photodetection wavelength to 2530 nm and further enhances the light absorption capability within the detection range. In addition, finite-difference time-domain simulation proves that the integration of TiN and GeSn could enhance average absorption from 0.13 to 0.33 in the near-infrared (NIR) region (e.g., 1400-2000 nm) and more than 70% of light is absorbed in TiN. The responsivity of the fabricated TiN/GeSn PDs is increased from 30 to 148.5 mA W-1 at 1550 nm. There is also an ∼180 nm extension in the optical absorption wavelength of the flexible TiN/GeSn PD. The enhanced performance of the device is attributed to the absorption and separation of plasmonic hot carriers via TiN and the TiN/GeSn junction, respectively. The effect of external uniaxial strain is also investigated. A tensile strain of 0.3% could further increase the responsivity from 148.5 to 218 mA W-1, while it is decreased to 102 mA W-1 by 0.25% compressive strain. In addition, the devices maintain stable performance after multiple and long bending cycles. Our results provide a robust and cost-effective method to extend the NIR photodetection capability of flexible group IV PDs.

Abstract
The paper-based photodetector has recently captivated a great deal of attention in various opto-electronics applications because of facile, cost effective and green synthesis. Two-dimensional transition metal dichalcogenides materials are promising for photodetection under the broad spectral range. In this work, we have fabricated paper-based device by rubbing the tungsten di-selenide (WSe2) crystals on paper substrate. Low-cost, facile and green synthesis technique was employed to make a high-performance paper-based WSe2photodetector. Paper-based photodetector was fabricated via non-toxic simply rubbing process of WSe2nanosheets on low-cost bio-degradable paper. The photodetector shows good responsivity of 72.5 μA W-1and detectivity at around 2.4 × 107Jones at very low bias (1.0 V) at wavelength of 780 nm, respectively. Due to good photo-absorption strength, photodetector exhibits excellent photo-response over wide wavelength range from visible to near infrared. This device also shows very good flexibility with a stable photo-response. This device shows a general and reliable study for the design of photodetectors that is eco-friendly and cost-effective. Overall studied results of the fabricated device indicate that they have the ability to be used in large-scale preparation of the device.

Abstract
Contact engineering for monolayered transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDCs) is considered to be of fundamental challenge for realizing high-performance TMDCs-based (opto) electronic devices. Here, an innovative concept is established for a device configuration with metallic copper monosulfide (CuS) electrodes that induces sulfur vacancy healing in the monolayer molybdenum disulfide (MoS2 ) channel. Excess sulfur adatoms from the metallic CuS electrodes are donated to heal sulfur vacancy defects in MoS2 that surprisingly improve the overall performance of its devices. The electrode-induced self-healing mechanism is demonstrated and analyzed systematically using various spectroscopic analyses, density functional theory (DFT) calculations, and electrical measurements. Without any passivation layers, the self-healed MoS2 (photo)transistor with the CuS contact electrodes show outstanding room temperature field effect mobility of 97.6 cm2 (Vs)-1 , On/Off ratio > 108 , low subthreshold swing of 120 mV per decade, high photoresponsivity of 1 × 104 A W-1 , and detectivity of 1013 jones, which are the best among back-gated transistors that employ 1L MoS2 . Using ultrathin and flexible 2D CuS and MoS2 , mechanically flexible photosensor is also demonstrated, which shows excellent durability under mechanical strain. These findings demonstrate a promising strategy in TMDCs or other 2D material for the development of high performance and functional devices including self-healable sulfide electrodes.

Abstract
In this study, as system-level photodetectors, light-to-frequency conversion circuits (LFCs) are realized by i) photosensitive ring oscillators (ROs) composed of amorphous indium-gallium-zinc-oxide/single-walled carbon nanotube (a-IGZO/SWNT) thin film transistors (TFTs) and ii) phase-locked-loop Si circuits built with frequency-to-digital converters (PFDC). The 3-stage ROs and logic gates based on a-IGZO/SWNT TFTs successfully demonstrate its performance on flexible substrates. Herein, along with the advantage of scalability, a-IGZO films are used as photosensitive n-type TFTs and SWNTs are employed as photo-insensitive p-type TFTs for better photosensitivity in circuit level. Through the controlling a post-annealing condition of a-IGZO film, responsivities and detectivities of a-IGZO TFTs are obtained as 36 AW-1 and 0.3 × 1012 Jones for red, 93 AW-1 and 3.1 × 1012 Jones for green, and 194 AW-1 and 11.7 × 1012 Jones for blue. Furthermore, as an advanced demonstration for practical application of LFCs, a unique circuit (i.e., PFDC) is designed to analyze the generated oscillation frequency (fosc ) from the LFC device and convert it to a digital code. As a result, the designed PFDC can exactly count the generated fosc from the flexible a-IGZO/SWNT ROs under light illumination with an outstanding sensitivity and assign input frequencies to respective digital code.

Abstract
A fluidic gallium-based liquid metal (LM) is an interesting material for producing flexible and stretchable electronics. A simple and reliable method developed to facilitate the fabrication of a photodetector based on an LM is presented. A large and thin conductive eutectic gallium indium (EGaIn) film can be fabricated with compressed EGaIn microdroplets. A solution of LM microdroplets can be synthesized by ultrasonication after mixing with EGaIn and ethanol and then dried on a PDMS substrate. In this study, a conductive LM film was obtained after pressing with another substrate. The film was sufficiently conductive and stretchable, and its electrical conductivity was 2.2 × 106 S/m. The thin film was patterned by a fiber laser marker, and the minimum line width of the pattern was approximately 20 μm. Using a sticky PDMS film, a Ga2O3 photo-responsive layer was exfoliated from the fabricated LM film. With the patterned LM electrode and the transparent photo-responsive film, a flexible photodetector was fabricated, which yielded photo-response-current ratios of 30.3%, 14.7%, and 16.1% under 254 nm ultraviolet, 365 nm ultraviolet, and visible light, respectively.

Abstract
Flexible photodetectors (PDs) have become the latest research interest owing to their potential applications in future implantable sensors and foldable/wearable optoelectronics. Ga2O3, an emerging ultrawide band gap semiconductor, is considered as the native photosensitive material for solar-blind PDs. The reported fabrication temperature of Ga2O3 films is usually above 600 °C, which hinders its practical application for flexible devices. In this work, flexible PDs based on graphene/amorphous Ga2O3 van der Waals heterojunctions are fabricated, which demonstrate promising photoresponse to solar-blind ultraviolet light. The device yields a high photo-to-dark current ratio (∼105) and large responsivity (22.75 A/W) under 254 nm light illumination, which could be ascribed to the efficient photogenerated electron-hole pair separation by the strong built-in field. Moreover, flexible PDs also show long-term environmental stability and outstanding mechanical flexibility without any encapsulation. Our work provides a new potential candidate for realizing cost-effective high-performance flexible optoelectronic applications.

Abstract
The V-VI binary chalcogenide, Sb2Se3, has attracted considerable attention for its applications in thin film optoelectronic devices because of its unique 1D structure and remarkable optoelectronic properties. Herein, we report an Sb2Se3 thin film epitaxially grown on a flexible mica substrate through a relatively weak (van der Waals) interaction by vapor transport deposition. The epitaxial Sb2Se3 thin films exhibit a single (120) out-of-plane orientation and a 0.25° full width at half-maximum of (120) rocking curve in X-ray diffraction, confirming the high crystallinity of the epitaxial films. The Sb2Se3(120) plane is epitaxially aligned on mica(001) surface with the in-plane relationship of Sb2Se3[2̅10]//mica[010] and Sb2Se3[001]//mica[100]. Compared to the photodetector made of a nonepitaxial Sb2Se3 film, the photocurrent of the epitaxial Sb2Se3 film photodetector is almost doubled. Furthermore, because of the flexibility and high sensitivity of the epitaxial Sb2Se3 film photodetector on mica, it has been successfully employed to detect the heart rate of a person. These encouraging results will facilitate the development of epitaxial Sb2Se3 film-based devices and potential applications in wearable electronics.

Abstract
The synthesis of solution-processed two-dimensional (2D) layered organohalide (CH3(CH2)3NH3)2(CH3NH3)n-1PbnI3n+1 (n = 2, 3, and 4) perovskites is presented, where inkjet printing was used to fabricate heterostructure flexible photodetector (PD) devices on polyimide (PI) substrates. Inks for the n = 4 formulation were developed to inkjet-print PD devices that were photoresponsive to broadband incoming radiation in the visible regime, where the peak photoresponsivity R was calculated to be ∼0.17 A/W, which is higher compared to prior reports, while the detectivity D was measured to be ∼3.7 × 1012 Jones at a low light intensity F ≈ 0.6 mW/cm2. The ON/OFF ratio was also high (∼2.3 × 103), while the response time τ on the rising and falling edges was measured to be τrise ≈ 24 ms and τfall ≈ 65 ms, respectively. Our strain-dependent measurements, conducted here for the first time for inkjet-printed perovskite PDs, revealed that the Ip decreased by only ∼27% with bending (radius of curvature of ∼0.262 cm-1). This work demonstrates the tremendous potential of the inkjet-printed, composition-tunable, organohalide 2D perovskite heterostructures for high-performance PDs, where the techniques are readily translatable toward flexible solar cell platforms as well.

Abstract
Flexible photodetectors (PDs) prepared with silicon-based materials have received considerable attention for their use in a wide range of portable and wearable applications. In this study, we present the first free-standing flexible PD based on sulfur-hyperdoped ultrathin silicon, which was fabricated using a femtosecond laser in a SF6 atmosphere. It is found that the fabricated device exhibits excellent performance of broadband photoresponse from 400 to 1200 nm, with a peak responsivity of 63.79 A/W @ 870 nm at a low bias voltage of -2 V, corresponding to an external quantum efficiency reaching 9092%, which surpasses most values reported for silicon-based flexible PDs. In addition, the device shows a fast response speed (rise time τr = 68 μs) and stable detection performance with good mechanical flexibility. The high-performance PD described here suggests a promising way in flexible applications for sensors, imaging systems, and optical communication systems.

Abstract
The piezo-phototronic effect has been promising as an effective means to improve the performance of two-dimensional (2D) semiconductor based optoelectronic devices. However, the current reported monolayer 2D semiconductors are not regarded as suitable for actual flexible piezotronic photodetectors due to their insufficient optical absorption and mechanical durability, although they possess strong piezoelectricity. In this work, we demonstrate that, unlike 2H-phase transition-metal dichalcogenides, γ-phase InSe with a hexagonal unit cell possesses broken inversion symmetry in all the layer numbers and has a strong second-harmonic generation effect. Moreover, driven by the piezo-phototronic effect, a flexible self-powered photodetector based on multilayer γ-InSe, which can work without any energy supply, is proposed. The device exhibited ultrahigh photon responsivity of 824 mA/W under light illuminations of 400 nm (0.368 mW/cm2). Moreover, the responsivity and response speed of this photodetector were enhanced further by as much as 696% and 1010%, respectively, when a 0.62% uniaxial tensile strain was applied. Our devices exhibit high reliability and stability during a 6 month test time. These significant findings offer a promising pathway to construct high-performance flexible piezo-phototronic photodetectors based on multilayer 2D semiconductors.

Abstract
Amorphous oxide semiconductor (AOS) field-effect phototransistors (FEPTs) are promising candidates for emerging photodetectors. Unfortunately, traditional lateral AOS FEPTs suffer from low photosensitivity, slow response time and inadequate mechanical flexibility, which restrict their widespread commercial application. In this work, novel AOS-based vertical field-effect phototransistor (VFEPT) arrays are presented, where the semiconducting layer and source and drain electrodes are deposited by inkjet printing. Benefitted from the unique vertical structure and ultrashort channel length, the exciton dissociation, carrier transfer, and collection efficiency were dramatically enhanced, resulting in excellent photoelectric performance in VFEPT devices, which was better than that of the traditional lateral AOS phototransistors. Moreover, flexible AOS VFEPT arrays were investigated for the first time on polyimide substrates. Due to the unique vertical architecture, the carrier transport was negligibly affected by the strain-induced in-plane cracks of the semiconductor channel layer during the mechanical bending process, which overcame the maximum bending limit of traditional lateral AOS thin-film transistors to ensure a transistor technique that gives notable mechanical robustness against repeated mechanical bending. Hence, this work provided a new pathway in emerging applications for AOS photodetectors with sensitivity, transparency, and flexibility.

Abstract
Topological crystalline insulators (TCIs) are predicted to be a promising candidate material for ultra-broadband photodetectors ranging from ultraviolet (UV) to terahertz (THz) due to its gapless surface state and narrow bulk bandgap. However, the low responsivity of TCIs-based photodetectors limits their further applications. In this regard, a high-performance photodetector based on SnTe, a recently developed TCI, working in a broadband wavelength range from deep UV to mid-IR with high responsivity is reported. By taking advantage of the strong light absorption and small bandgap of SnTe, photodetectors based on the as-grown SnTe crystalline nanoflakes as well as specific short channel length achieve a high responsivity (71.11 A W-1 at 254 nm, 49.03 A W-1 at 635 nm, 10.91 A W-1 at 1550 nm, and 4.17 A W-1 at 4650 nm) and an ultra-broad spectral response (254-4650 nm) simultaneously. Moreover, for the first time, a durable flexible SnTe photodetector fabricated directly on a polyethylene terephthalate film is demonstrated. These results prove the great potential of TCIs as a promising material for integrated and flexible optoelectronic devices.

Abstract
Growing interest in hybrid organic-inorganic lead halide perovskites has led to the development of various perovskite nanowires (NWs), which have potential use in a wide range of applications, including lasers, photodetectors, and light-emitting diodes (LEDs). However, existing nanofabrication approaches lack the ability to control the number, location, orientation, and properties of perovskite NWs. Their growth mechanism also remains elusive. Here, we demonstrate a micro/nanofluidic fabrication technique (MNFFT) enabling both precise control and in situ monitoring of the growth of perovskite NWs. The initial nucleation point and subsequent growth path of a methylammonium lead iodide-dimethylformamide (MAPbI3·DMF) NW array can be guided by a nanochannel. In situ UV-vis absorption spectra are measured in real time, permitting the study of the growth mechanism of the DMF-mediated crystallization of MAPbI3. As an example of an application of the MNFFT, we demonstrate a highly sensitive MAPbI3-NW-based photodetector on both solid and flexible substrates, showing the potential of the MNFFT for low-cost, large-scale, highly efficient, and flexible optoelectronic applications.

Abstract
Heterostructures based on graphene and other 2D atomic crystals exhibit fascinating properties and intriguing potential in flexible optoelectronics, where graphene films function as transparent electrodes and other building blocks are used as photoactive materials. However, large-scale production of such heterostructures with superior performance is still in early stages. Herein, for the first time, the preparation of a submeter-sized, vertically stacked heterojunction of lead iodide (PbI2 )/graphene on a flexible polyethylene terephthalate (PET) film by vapor deposition of PbI2 on graphene/PET substrate at a temperature lower than 200 °C is demonstrated. This film is subsequently used to fabricate bendable graphene/PbI2 /graphene sandwiched photodetectors, which exhibit high responsivity (45 A W-1 cm-2 ), fast response (35 µs rise, 20 µs decay), and high-resolution imaging capability (1 µm). This study may pave a facile pathway for scalable production of high-performance flexible devices.

Abstract
Complementary combination of heterostructures is a crucial factor for the development of 2D materials-based optoelectronic devices. Herein, an appropriate solution for fabricating complementary dimensional-hybrid nanostructures comprising structurally tailored ZnO nanostructures and 2D materials such as graphene and MoS2 is suggested. Structural features of ZnO nanostructures hydrothermally grown on graphene and MoS2 are deliberately manipulated by adjusting the pH value of the growing solution, which will result in the formation of ZnO nanowires, nanostars, and nanoflowers. The detailed growth mechanism is further explored for the structurally tailored ZnO nanostructures on the 2D materials. Furthermore, a UV photodetector based on the dimensional-hybrid nanostructures is fabricated, which demonstrates their excellent photocurrent and mechanical durability. This can be understood by the existence of oxygen vacancies and oxygen-vacancies-induced band narrowing in the ZnO nanostructures, which is a decisive factor for determining their photoelectrical properties in the hybrid system.

Abstract
Flexible photodetectors are attracting substantial attention because of their promising applications in bendable display and smart clothes which cannot be fulfilled by the existing rigid counterparts. In this work, we demonstrate a newly designed photodetector constructed on the common printing paper. Pencil trace was applied as the graphite electrode. With such a simple and convenient method, the as-prepared photodetector exhibited a satisfactory responsivity of 4.4 mA/W, on/off current ratio of 32, coupled with a high response speed of <10 ms. It also demonstrated excellent mechanical flexibility and durability. Most inspiringly, by an ingenious origami, we created the first perovskite photodetector with a 3D configuration. The cubic photodetector array displayed an excellent spatial recognition ability which could not be achieved in all the previously reported 2D photodetectors. Such a fusion of materials science and the art of origami provides a robust strategy for the design of low-cost flexible electronics, especially for the applications in 3D configurations.
