Abstract<\/strong><\/p>\n

Integration of Spintronics and Optoelectronics, i.e., Optospintronics has the potential to combine the effect of light with the spins of charge carriers. In this attempt, two approaches have been adopted, i.e., Magnetic field tuning of photocurrent and Optical tuning of spin-valve effect. Focussing on the second approach, we have fabricated a coupled organic photodetector and organic spin-valve, i.e., a single Magnetic Organic Photodetector (MOPD) heterostructure, ITO\/V[TCNE]x\/C60\/Co\/Au. This MOPD heterostructure exhibits photocurrent generation at room temperature with 40% photocurrent to dark current ratio under illumination of 660 nm red laser light. Also, it shows room temperature negative magnetoresistance as high as -25.85% under dark. Moreover, according to our experimental evidences, this MOPD heterostructure exhibits spin-valve effect with peak up to 3% spin-valve magnetoresistance. Thus, this device can operate as an individual spin-valve, and a photodetector at room temperature. Significantly, coupling between spin-valve and photodetector characteristics is observed for the first time in this MOPD device. Such \u201ccross-talk\u201d between optical response and spin-valve property in a single device are highly significant for future development of novel optically controlled integrated memory logic devices, such as LiFi and Electro-Optical Hybrid Computing technologies. Topological Insulator (TI) based Low Noise, Broadband Infrared photodetector array at room temperature has been developed. Our fabricated heterostructure ITO\/TI(Bi2Se3)\/Co\/Au transit from \u201cadmixture of bulk non-conducting and surface conducting state\u201d to \u201cdominating surface conducting state\u201d via bias voltage. A positive photocurrent generation with an optimal photocurrent-to-dark current ratio of 9 \u00d7 103 was achieved using broadband infrared light. Our device promises for IR detection and next-generation high-performance focal plane arrays.<\/p>\n
