Xi'an Jiaotong University develops zero-gate-bias phototransistor for discharge detection

By PulseAugur Editorial · [1 sources] ·

Researchers at Xi'an Jiaotong University have developed a novel 2D phototransistor capable of detecting faint grid discharges. This device utilizes gold nanoparticles and a ferroelectric gate, enabling it to operate without a gate voltage. It achieves high detectivity and a rapid response time, making it suitable for monitoring partial discharges in electrical grids. AI
