Problems solved by technology

[0004] Since the traditional ultraviolet photodetector and infrared photodetector can only track a single color, the detection range of the photodetector is narrow, and it is impossible to simultaneously detect the light in the ultraviolet and visible bands.
However, most of the current UV-visible dual-band detectors are mainly composed of two detectors that respond to different bands respectively. Usually, the ultraviolet and infrared detectors are connected together by metal bonding to achieve dual-band detection, which increases the Complexity of Device Fabrication
