Hot-carrier photodetectors have been extensively studied in recent years, but still exhibit particularly low efficiencies. The physics behind this is closely related to the intrinsic electronic structures of hot-carrier materials. Transition-metal carbides and nitrides (TMCNs) show intriguing potent...
