[en] This study demonstrates dual functional hybrid heterojunction photodiodes (PDs) that comprise an amorphous indium gallium zinc oxide (a-IGZO) thin film blended with graphene nanoflakes and a SiO₂ (5 nm)/Si substrate. The PDs exhibit a photo-responsivity of approximately 0.15–0.27 A W⁻¹ under 633 nm illumination, which is much higher than that for a-IGZO based phototransistor in the visible region. The device also gives a long-lasting persistent photocurrent (PPC) when the UV light is extinguished. This results show that the hybrid heterojunction acts as a high performance photodetector for the detection of visible light and provides a universal scenario for development of PPC. (paper)
