Abstract
Light-induced transverse thermoelectric effect is investigated in incline-oriented Bi2Sr2Co2Oy thin films covered with a graphite light absorption layer. Upon the illumination of a 980 nm cw laser, an enhanced voltage signal is detected and the improvement degree is found to be dependent on the thickness of the graphite layer. A two-dimensional (2D) heat transport model using the finite-difference method provides a reasonable explanation to the experimental data. Present results give some valuable instructions for the design of light absorption layers in this type of detector.
