In this paper the researchers test different Si passivation tricks to optimize PbS quantum dot detectors. The two-step passivation device shows an EQE of 31% at 1280 nm and -4V.
Paios was used to perform TPV and TPC measurements to confirm longer lifetime and faster extraction, respectively, using the two-step process. This is explained by trap passivation.
