| Abstract [eng] |
We develop CsxFA1−xPbI3 perovskite photodetectors with varying Cs content in the x = 0.05–0.25 range to identify the most stable cubic-lattice perovskite composition for visible-light photodetection. The perovskite layers were deposited by the spin-coating technique on a nickel oxide p-type contact and then were covered with C60/Ag electron contact to obtain a vertical pin diode structure. X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) measurements show that x = 0.1–0.2 provides the most stable lattice and pinhole-free perovskite layers. The photocurrents are linear in an extremely wide 1 nW–10 mW excitation power range, providing photoresponsivity of 0.28 A/W at 532 nm (green light), similar to that of Si photodiodes. The testing of the photodetectors using picosecond pulses provided their rise times and fall times. The x = 0.2 composition provided the shortest rise time values of 27.5 ns, leading to a detector modulation bandwidth of 12.7 MHz. This indicates that this perovskite composition is suitable for replacing silicon photodetectors in cost-efficient light detection systems for imaging and light communication applications such as Li-Fi. |
