RESUMEN
Solution-processed perovskites are promising for hard X-ray and gamma-ray detection, but there are limited reports on their performance under extremely intense X-rays. Here, a solution-grown all-inorganic perovskite CsPbBr3 single-crystal semiconductor detector capable of operating at ultrahigh X-ray flux of 1010 photons s-1 mm-2 is reported. High-quality solution-grown CsPbBr3 single crystals are fabricated into detectors with a Schottky diode structure of eutectic gallium indium/CsPbBr3 /Au. A high reverse-bias voltage of 1000 V (435 V mm- 1 ) can be applied with a small and stable dark current of ≈60-70 nA (≈9-10 nA mm- 2 ), which enables a high sensitivity larger than 10 000 µC Gyair -1 cm- 2 and a simultaneous low detection limit of 22 nGyair s- 1 . The CsPbBr3 semiconductor detector shows an excellent photocurrent linearity and reproducibility under 58.61 keV synchrotron X-rays with flux from 106 to 1010 photons s- 1 mm- 2 . Defect characterization by thermally stimulated current spectroscopy shows a similar low defect density of a synchrotron X-ray and a lab X-ray irradiated device. Solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy suggests that the excellent performance of the solution-grown CsPbBr3 single crystal may be associated with its good short-range order, comparable to the spectrometer-grade melt-grown CsPbBr3 .
