Innovation in photodetector technology is reported by developing a novel MoS2/GaSe/Ga2O3 heterostructure on Si substrate, capable of detecting a broad spectral range from UVC to NIR. The heterostructure device was designed via sputtered deposition of MoS2 and Ga2O3 films and GaSe via chemical vapor deposition. MoS2 offers high electron mobility and direct bandgap, GaSe provides high optical absorption and good carrier mobility, while Ga2O3 features a wide bandgap and excellent UV detection capabilities. Integrating these materials within the heterostructure addresses the growing demand for broadband photodetection. The fabricated device exhibited ultrahigh responsivity of 14.7 A/W with a response speed of ~ 20 ms under self-driven condition (zero applied bias) for an optical illumination of 266 nm. The device also demonstrate a maximum responsivity of 3.2 A/W and 4.3 A/W under 532 nm and 1064 nm light illuminations at zero applied bias. Further, the functionalization of the heterostructure surface with mono-dispersed Au-nanoparticles (5nm) led to the generation of hot charge carriers through the excitation and decay of surface plasmons. The fabricated surface functionalized heterostructure photodetector exhibits a remarkable 3500% enhancement in responsivity, attributed to localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) effects that augment light absorption and carrier generation within the heterostructure. This study paves the way for developing MoS2/GaSe/Ga2O3-based broadband photodetectors for developing high-performance, self-driven optoelectronic devices.
