Pressure monitoring in extreme conditions, such as in industrial, aerospace, and radioactive atmosphere, is crucial. Our focus is on developing and researching piezoelectric sensors that are highly flexible for detecting gas pressures at extremely high temperatures. We develop the flexible device using epitaxial III -nitride film, which is single-crystalline, by layer-transfer method. The sensor shows a sensitive and stable operation for extended periods. We use software simulation and relevant formulas to support our experimental findings.

Light sources and photodetectors operating in the far- to midinfrared (FIR/MIR) band (8–12 µm, 0.15–0.1 eV) remain relatively poorly developed compared to their counterparts operating in the visible and near-infrared ranges, despite extensive application potential for thermal imaging, standoff sensing, and other technologies. This is attributable in part to the lack of narrow-gap materials (<0.1 eV) with high optical gain and absorption. In this work, a narrow-gap semiconductor, Pb0.7Sn0.3Se, is demonstrated to exhibit an optical response >10× larger than that of HgxCd1−xTe (MCT), the dominant material for FIR/MIR photodetectors. A previous theoretical investigation indicated that chalcogen p and metal d band inversion in this material creates a Mexican hat band structure (MHBS), which results in a dramatic increase in the joint density of states at the optical transition edge compared to typical semiconductors. This prediction is experimentally validated here using single-crystal specimens of Pb0.7Sn0.3Se measured using temperature-dependent spectroscopic ellipsometry over a wavelength range 1.7–20 µm (0.73–0.062 eV). These measurements demonstrate a large enhancement in extinction coefficient and refractive index, which are characteristic of a MHBS in the vicinity of the absorption edge, in agreement with theoretical predictions. The realization of topological semiconductors with a MHBS is expected to lead to high-efficiency detectors operating in the FIR/MIR range.
