Zwitterionic Self‐Assembled Monolayer for Simultaneous Noise Suppression and Hole Extraction in High‐Performance Near‐Infrared Organic Photodetectors (Adv. Funct. Mater. 39/2026)

Zwitterionic Self-Assembled Monolayer for NIR Photodetectors The cover illustrates a zwitterionic self-assembled monolayer that forms a strong interfacial dipole at the electrode/organic interface and significantly increases the electrode work function, simultaneously blocking noise current pathways and promoting hole extraction. This dual-function interface enables ultralow dark current density and high specific detectivity in near-infrared organic photodetectors.
