ABSTRACT: Charge transfer (CT) complex with unique inter-molecule electronic transitions has attracted broad interest and holds great potentials in optoelectronic applications. Here, we report a new family of two-dimensional graphene-organic molecule CT complexes. Density functional theory (DFT) calculation has revealed low-energy CT bands in the near infrared (NIR) region up to 2000 nm for graphene-TCNQ (tetracyanoquinodimethane), graphene-F4TCNQ (2,3,5,6-Tetrafluoro-tetracyanoquinodimethane)

and

graphene-TCOQ

(tetrachloro-o-

benzoquinone) complexes. Raman and electrical measurements have confirmed a partial charge transfer between graphene and the molecules at the ground state. CT excitations have been calculated by DFT and verified by optoelectronic measurements. The graphene-organic CT complexes have shown a broadband photoresponse from visible to NIR range, attributing to the inter-molecule electronic transitions. Further, the photo-responsivity (up to 103 A/W) suggests a high photoelectrical gain arising from the photogating effect at the graphene/molecule interface. At last, the photoresponse property of the graphene-organic CT complexes can be tuned by electrical gating of graphene.

Introduction Since the discovery of tetrathiafulvalene-tetracyanoquinodimethane (TTF-TCNQ) charge transfer (CT) complex in 19731, CT complex consisting of electron donors and electron acceptors has attracted great interest due to its unique electrical2-4, optical3-8 and magnetic9,10 properties. Owing to the molecular orbital overlapping and hybridization, CT complex has unique low-energy inter-molecule electronic transitions down to near infrared (NIR) region11-14. The inter-molecule electronic transition accomplishes high efficient charge separation and hence has great potentials in high-efficiency solar cells15,16 and high-performance photodetectors14. Graphene17, a layer of honeycomb sp2 carbon atoms with delocalized π electron system, is a promising candidate for CT complexes with atomic thickness18. Due to the continuous electronic states in graphene, graphene-based CT complexes can have broadband inter-molecule CT transitions down to infrared (IR) range. Further, the charge separation at the two-dimensional interface can make graphene-based CT complexes favorable for high-gain photodetection, in which the separated charges in graphene can circulate millions of circles before recombination with the opposite charges in the molecules due to the extremely high carrier mobility in graphene19-25 and slow charge recombination rate between graphene and the molecules. In the past years, graphene-organic molecule interactions26, such as doping27-32, excited state charge/energy transfer8,33-35, have been intensively investigated. However, inter-molecule electronic transition between graphene and organic molecules, i.e., CT transition, has not been reported. Here we have calculated electronic structure of graphene-organic CT complexes, a new kind of two-dimensional CT complex consisting of a conductive conjugated atomic layer and a layer of molecules. The investigated molecules include tetracyanoquinodimethane (TCNQ),

(TCOQ). Taking graphene-TCNQ CT complex as an example, density functional theory (DFT) calculation has revealed inter-molecule CT transitions covering a spectrum range from 500 to 2400 nm. Field-effect transistors (FETs) of graphene-TCNQ CT complex have been fabricated and showed ultrahigh NIR photoresponse from visible to 2000 nm with a peak responsivity higher than 2000 A/W. In addition, the photoresponse can be tuned by electrical gating of graphene. Methods DFT calculation. All electronic and optical properties are cal-culated with plane-wave pseudopotential package CASTEP. It has been confirmed by previous calculation that local density functionals could describe the electronic structure of graphene quite accurately. PBEstyle GGA functional was used for all the calculation. A graphene supercell of 12 Å × 12 Å was constructed with different molecule absorbed on just one side. The van der Waals interaction was included in the empirical TS scheme. The structure was relaxed by BFGS scheme with a residual force smaller than 0.01 eV/Å. A standard ultrasoft pseuopotential was used with a cut off energy of 450 eV. Only Γ point was used for geometry optimization while a 3×3 Monkhorst-Pack grid was used for electronic and optical properties calculation. Materials. TCNQ (PN#1427366, 98%), F4TCNQ (PN#2157887, 97%) and TCOQ (PN#1309782, 97%) were purchased from Sigma Aldrich. Characterization. AFM (Dimension 3100, Veeco, America) was performed with tapping mode. STM (Nanoscope IIIa, Bruker, Germany) images were conducted at Iset =491.3 pA, Vbais

Graphene flakes were obtained by me-chanical exfoliation of Kish graphite (Covalent Material Corp., Japan) on a silicon wafer with 300 nm SiO2 layer. Copper TEM grid with 10 µm spacing was used as a shadow mask. 10 nm Ti and 50 nm Au were deposited for the electrodes. After evapora-tion, the electrodes and back silicon gate were wired to a home-made chip carrier. The device was then immersed in TCNQ, F4TCNQ or TCOQ saturated solution in acetone for adsorption and dried in N2 blow before photocurrent measurements. Photoresponse measurement. The photocurrent measure-ment system was home-built with a pulsed laser (EXR-4, NKT, Denmark, output wavelength from 540 to 2400 nm). A series of bandpass filters from 700 nm to 2000 nm (FKB-VIS-40, FKB-IR-10, FB1750-500 and FB2000500, Thorlabs Inc., USA) and neu-tral density filters (GCC-301041, GCC-301061 and GCC301071, Daheng Optics, China; NENIR10A, NENIR20A and NENIR30A, Thorlabs Inc., USA) were used to select the output wavelength and output power. The light spot diameter was about 2 mm. The laser power under each condition was measured by a pow-er meter (PM100A, Thorlabs Inc., USA) with different sensors suitable for the various wavelengths. The photoresponse rate was measured by an amperemeter (DMM7510, Tektronix Inc., USA) with light chopping up to 10 kHz (MC2000B, Thorlabs Inc., USA).

optimized structure is shown in Figure 1a. The partial density of states (PDOS) is shown in Figure 1b. The Fermi level in graphene is shifted down by 0.2 eV from the Dirac point, resulting from the electron transfer from graphene to TCNQ at the ground state. Absorption spectrum is calculated for graphene-TCNQ complex, showing three new peaks at longer wavelengths (~600, 900 and 1750 nm, Figure 1c). The three peaks correspond to electronic transitions from the highest occupied molecule orbital (HOMO) to three unoccupied orbitals. The HOMO is mainly contributed by graphene (96%) while the three unoccupied orbitals are contributed by both graphene (48% to 64%) and TCNQ (52% to 36%) (Figure 1c insets). This suggests that the three electronic transitions involve partial electron transfer from graphene to TCNQ, i.e., intermolecule CT transitions. Similar results have been observed for graphene-F4TCNQ and graphene-TCOQ CT complexes (Figure S1 and S2). In brief, graphene-F4TCNQ shows CT bands around 900, 1900 nm and graphene-TCOQ shows CT bands around 900 nm.

an upshift of the G band from 1584 to 1589 cm-1 (Figure 2b), indicating a p-doping effect. This is consistent with the DFT calculation result of electron transfer from graphene to TCNQ at the ground state. This p-doping effect of TCNQ on graphene was also observed from field-effect transport measurements (Figure 2c,d), in which the minimum conductance point (the Dirac point) shifted to a more positive gate voltage after TCNQ adsorption.

Further, graphene-organic CT complexes were put under NIR light illumination for photoresponse measurements (Figure 3a). For the graphene-TCNQ device shown in Figure 2c, a photocurrent of µA level was observed under 1000 nm illumination with powers from 0.35 nW to 0.19 µW (Figure 3b). Since graphene was gated at p-type region (Vgs was -40 V), the positive photocurrent indicates hole injection into graphene at light illumination. That is consistent with DFT calculation result, i.e., the CT bands associate electron transfer from graphene to TCNQ (Figure 1c).

powers. The inset in (b) is a typical optical image of graphene-TCNQ device. (d,e) photoresponse of graphene-TCNQ complex at different chopping frequencies.

The photoresponsivity of graphene-TCNQ complex at low light illumination was as high as ~2000 A/W (Figure 3c, red data), indicating an ultrahigh photoelectrical gain. Similarly, high responsivity up to 120 A/W (at 1000 nm) and 240 A/W (at 1000 nm) were observed for graphene-F4TCNQ and graphene-TCOQ complexes, respectively (Figure S3 and S4). The gain is attributed to the photogating effect20,36,37, i.e., the holes in graphene circulate many times in the device before recombination with electrons in TCNQ due to the extremely high carrier mobility in graphene and slow charge recombination rate between graphene and TCNQ. As light power increased, the photocurrent increased but not linearly (Figure 3c). This is a saturation effect which is commonly observed in graphene20,22 and MoS238,39 based photogating photodetectors. The photoresponse speed was also measured by light chopping. As the light chopping frequency increased to 10 kHz, the responsivity only dropped about 30% (Figure 3d,e). This suggests that the electron-hole recombination rate in graphene-TCNQ is still faster than 0.1 ms. Further, wavelength-dependent photoresponse of graphene-organic CT complex was measured (Figure 4). Graphene-TCNQ complex has a broad photoresponse from visible to 2000 nm. While graphene-F4TCNQ and graphene-TCOQ have photoresponse from visible to 1200 nm. The wavelength-dependent responsivity (in A/W) matches well with the calculated absorption spectrum below 1200 nm. For graphene-TCNQ complex, at longer wavelength from 1400 to 2000 nm, the measured photoresponse is lower than the calculated absorption, in which the explanation is not clear and it needs further investigation.

The Fermi level of graphene can be tuned by the gate voltage17,40. At negative gate voltages, graphene is p-doped with major carriers of holes. In a quantitatively picture, considering graphene Dirac point at -4.6 eV and the lowest unoccupied molecule orbital (LUMO) of TCNQ, F4TCNQ, TCOQ at -4.6, -5.2 and -4.5 eV, respectively, the charge (electron) transfer transition is allowed from graphene to LUMO of the molecules (Figure 5a left panel). However, when the Fermi level of graphene rises to a n-doped region at strong positive gate voltages, the Fermi level of graphene is higher than the LUMO of the molecules. As a result, the charge (electron) transfer transition from graphene to organic molecule is blocked (Figure 5a right panel).

In experiments, strong photoresponse was observed at negative gate voltages while no photoresponse was observed at gate voltages higher than 40 V for all graphene-TCNQ, graphene-F4TCNQ and graphene-TCOQ complexes (Figure 5b,c,d). This is consistent with the quantitative picture shown in Figure 5a. Therefore, the external electrical gating can be used to tune electronic excitations in graphene-organic CT complexes.
