Ultraweak light detection with solid‐state and cooling‐free photodetectors is important for both fundamental research and practical applications. A general phototransistor architecture for detecting ultraviolet–visible light down to 100 fW cm −2 at room temperature is demonstrated. The exceptional sensitivity stems from an amplification process triggered by incident light. A responsivity of ≈10 7 A W −1 is achieved.
