Keywords: The photo-excitation dynamics occurring in the nanosheet of MoSe2 have been studied by employing the tran

excitation, the photo-detector based on MoSe2 nanosheet is fabricated and the period- and voltage-dependent
photocurrent is further clarified. In addition, nanosecond transient photocurrent test probes the dynamics of
carrier and confirms that illumination intensity would accelerate the lifetime of carrier recombination to 1 μs at
high intensity and enhance the corresponding loss of carrier. Moreover, it is also found that the bias voltage
would linearly facilitate the yield of free carriers in photo-detector and the lifetime of carrier recombination
would decrease to 4 μs at 60 V. The final results could help people to further understand the photo-physical
property of MoSe2 nanosheet and facilitate its application in the opto-electronic devices.
