▎ 摘　　要

In this paper, we investigate an optimized design of textured graphene nanoribbon phototransistor via quantum simulations. The graphene layer with textured morphology performs dual role, notably as the carrier conduction channel and also as an absorber of light. The proposed design characteristics are numerically investigated via a non-equilibrium Green's function (NEGF) mode-space formulism in the ballistic edge. The method suggested was tailored to the modern carrier transport model, Electron-photon and Electron-phonon interactions. Besides, a simple analytical model that considers graphene light trapping morphology is developed and introduced into the simulation. This model is regarded as a fitness function for Multi-Objective Genetic Algorithm (MOGA) optimization technique to improve the GNR phototransistor sensing capability. Simulations results show that, compared to a conventional phototransistor, the proposed design has higher responsivity (47.55 mA/W), good sensitivity (2.41 x 10(3)), higher detectivity (6.09 x 10(10) Jones), better Photocurrent to Dark Current Ratio (PDCR) (24.15) and keeping better scaling capability.
