• A facile approach for the synthesis of Au‐ and Pt‐decorated CuInS2 nanocrystals (CIS NCs) as sensitizer materials on the top of MoS2 bilayers is demonstrated. A single surfactant (oleylamine) is used to prepare such heterostructured noble metal decorated CIS NCs from the pristine CIS. Such a feasible way to synthesize heterostructured noble metal decorated CIS NCs from the single surfactant can stimulate the development of the functionalized heterostructured NCs in large scale for practical applications such as solar cells and photodetectors. Photodetectors based on MoS2 bilayers with the synthesized nanocrystals display enhanced photocurrent, almost 20–40 times higher responsivity and the On/Off ratio is enlarged one order of magnitude compared with the pristine MoS2 bilayers‐based photodetectors. Remarkably, by using Pt‐ or Au‐decorated CIS NCs, the photocurrent enhancement of MoS2 photodetectors can be tuned between blue (405 nm) to green (532 nm). The strategy described here acts as a perspective to significantly improve the performance of MoS2‐based photodetectors with the controllable absorption wavelengths in the visible light range, showing the feasibility of the possible color detection. Au‐ and Pt‐decorated CuInS2 nanocrystals (CIS NCs) are synthesized through a facile approach and demonstrated as sensitizer materials on bilayered MoS2‐based photodetectors. The enhancement of the responsivity is ≈22 times for the Pt‐CIS/MoS2 photodetector under the illumination of 405 nm and ≈40 times for Au‐CIS/MoS2 under the light of 532 nm due to efficient carrier generation and transportation compared with the pristine MoS2 device.
