RESUMO
In traditional optical wireless communication (OWC) systems, the simultaneous use of multiple sets of light-emitting diodes (LEDs) and photodetectors (PDs) increases the system complexity and instability. Here we report bifunctional light-emitting photodetectors (LEPDs) fabricated with quasi-2D perovskite (F-PEA)2Cs4Pb5I11Br5 as light-emitting/detecting layers for efficient, miniaturized, and intelligent bidirectional OWC. By simply changing the solvent composition of the precursor solution and using antisolvent engineering, we manipulated the crystal orientation and phase distribution of (F-PEA)2Cs4Pb5I11Br5, realizing high irradiance (4.36 µW cm-2) and a -3 dB refresh rate (0.21 MHz) of electroluminescence in LED mode as well as low noise (below 1 pA Hz-1/2) and high responsivity (0.1 A W-1) in PD mode. The rapid and accurate OWC process was demonstrated through interaction of LEPDs. We also demonstrated the high-fidelity compression and digitization of high-resolution (256 × 256 pixels) color images using the four-step phase shift method to realize intelligent encrypted image OWC.
RESUMO
Near-infrared (NIR) II detection at weak flux intensity is required in medical imaging and is especially urgent in light of the low quantum efficiency of NIR-II dyes. The low responsivity of traditional photodetectors in this region limits image quality. Here, we report a NIR-II photodetector with high gain based on perovskite coupled PbS colloidal quantum dots (CQDs). Tailoring the trap density of CQDs by designing surface ligands with dual functionality contributed to control over trap-induced charge-injection upon light illumination. As a result, a detector with high gain is realized, showing external quantum efficiency of 1260% at 1200 nm and achieving the lowest detectable light intensity, that is, as low as 0.67 pW cm-2 with a linear dynamic range of 200 dB. Devices maintain over 90% of responsivity after 150 days of storage. We acquired images of a butterfly wing, showing the skeleton texture with a maximum spatial resolution of 3.9 lp/mm.

The low-dimensional halide perovskites have attracted increasing attention due to their improved moisture stability, reduced defects, and suppressed ions migration in many optoelectronic devices such as solar cells, light-emitting diodes, X-ray detectors, and so on. However, they are still limited by their large band gap and short charge carriers' diffusion length. Here, we demonstrate that the introduction of metal ions into organic interlayers of two-dimensional (2D) perovskite by cross-linking the copper paddle-wheel cluster-based lead bromide ([Cu(O2 C-(CH2 )3 -NH3 )2 ]PbBr4 ) perovskite single crystals with coordination bonds can not only significantly reduce the perovskite band gap to 0.96â eV to boost the X-ray induced charge carriers, but can also selectively improve the charge carriers' transport along the out-of-plane direction and blocking the ions motion paths. The [Cu(O2 C-(CH2 )3 -NH3 )2 ]PbBr4 single-crystal device can reach a record charges/ions collection ratio of 1.69×1018 ±4.7 %â µGyair -1 s, and exhibit a large sensitivity of 1.14×105 ±7%â µC Gyair -1 cm-2 with the lowest detectable dose rate of 56â nGyair s-1 under 120â keV X-rays irradiation. In addition, [Cu(O2 C-(CH2 )3 -NH3 )2 ]PbBr4 single-crystal detector exposed to the air without any encapsulation shows excellent X-ray imaging capability with long-term operational stability without any attenuation of 120â days.
RESUMO
Halide perovskites with various compositions are potential candidates in low-dosage X-ray detection due to their large sensitivity and tunable optoelectronic properties. Here, cations engineering induced dimensional evolution of halide perovskites between 0D, 2D, and 3D is reported. Centimeter-sized 2D lead-free perovskite single-crystal of 4-fluorophenethylammonium antimony iodide (FPEA3 SbI6 ) is synthesized. In contrast to the 0D phenethylammonium antimony iodide (PEA3 Sb2 I9 ), face-shared [Sb2 I9 ]3- of the bi-octahedral structure of PEA3 Sb2 I9 is split into corner-shared [SbI6 ]3- by intermolecular interactions and steric hindrance of FPEA+ ions in 2D FPEA3 SbI6 . Two Sb3+ ions share three octahedral [SbI6 ]3- , leaving one-third of Sb3+ vacancies in the framework of FPEA3 SbI6 . Furthermore, Sn2+ ions can be filled into the vacancies to form continuous 2D frameworks to tune the anisotropic conductivity and device sensitivity to hard X-rays. The dimensional evolution of perovskite single-crystals from 3D to 2D or 0D to 2D maximizes the signal/noise ratio to facilize the adjustability of detection limit in hard X-ray detection, which is determined by both device sensitivity and device noise current. A record low detection limit coefficient of 0.65 is achieved in the 2D FPEA3 SbSn0.5 I7 single-crystal sample, which results from selective charges collection over mobile ions/noise current in the 2D perovskite structure.

Solution-processed perovskites as emerging semiconductors have achieved unprecedented milestones in sensor optoelectric devices. Stability along with the device noise issues are the major obstacle for photodetectors to compete with the traditional devices. Here, we demonstrated that l-ascorbic acid (l-AA) as a polyhydroxy ester can coordinate with the amino group of formamidine cations (FA+) through multiple hydrogen bond interactions to stabilize the perovskite, which protect the FA+ ions from nucleophile attack and effectively suppress the degradation of FA+ ions, improving the perovskite stability and suppressing the device noise to below 0.3 pA Hz-1/2 with a large linear dynamic range of 239 dB. The dual functions of l-AA enable the perovskite photodetector to have a high detectivity of 1012 Jones. The self-powered device works with no energy consumption and maintains an undegraded performance over 1200 h of inspection at ambient conditions, which is promising for infrastructure construction, signal sensing, and real-time information delivery.
RESUMO
State-of-the-art, high-performance perovskite solar cells (PSCs) contain a large amount of iodine to realize smaller bandgaps. However, the presence of numerous iodine vacancies at the surface of the film formed by their evaporation during the thermal annealing process has been broadly shown to induce deep-level defects, incur nonradiative charge recombination, and induce photocurrent hysteresis, all of which limit the efficiency and stability of PSCs. In this work, modifying the defective surface of perovskite films with cadmium iodide (CdI2) effectively reduces the degree of surface iodine deficiency and stabilizes iodine ions via the formation of strong Cd-I ionic bonds. This largely reduces the interfacial charge recombination loss, yielding a high efficiency of 21.9% for blade-coated PSCs with an open-circuit voltage of 1.20 V, corresponding to a record small voltage deficit of 0.31 V. The CdI2 surface treatment also improves the operational stability of the PSCs, retaining 92% efficiency after constant illumination at 1 sun intensity for 1000 h. This work provides a promising strategy to optimize the surface/interface optoelectronic properties of perovskites for more efficient and stable solar cells and other optoelectronic devices.
RESUMO
Organic-inorganic halide perovskites (OIHPs) bring an unprecedented opportunity for radiation detection with their defect-tolerance nature, large mobility-lifetime product, and simple crystal growth from solution. Here we report a dopant compensation in alloyed OIHP single crystals to overcome limitations of device noise and charge collection, enabling γ-ray spectrum collection at room temperature. CH3NH3PbBr3 and CH3NH3PbCl3 are found to be p-type and n-type doped, respectively, whereas dopant-compensated CH3NH3PbBr2.94Cl0.06 alloy has over tenfold improved bulk resistivity of 3.6 × 109 Ω cm. Alloying also increases the hole mobility to 560 cm2 V-1 s-1, yielding a high mobility-lifetime product of 1.8 × 10-2 cm2 V-1. The use of a guard ring electrode in the detector reduces the crystal surface leakage current and device dark current. A distinguishable 137Cs energy spectrum with comparable or better resolution than standard scintillator detectors is collected under a small electric field of 1.8 V mm-1 at room temperature.
RESUMO
The electronic structure of a cleaved perovskite (CH3NH3PbBr3) single crystal was studied in an ultra-high vacuum (UHV) system using angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy (ARPES) and inverse photoelectron spectroscopy (IPES). Highly reproducible dispersive features of the valence bands were observed with symmetry about the Brillouin zone center and boundaries. The largest dispersion width was found to be â¼0.73 eV and â¼0.98 eV along the ΓX and ΓM directions, respectively. The effective mass of the holes was estimated to be â¼0.59m0. The quality of the surface was verified using atomic force microscopy (AFM) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The elemental composition was investigated using high resolution X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The experimental electronic structure shows a good agreement with the theoretical calculation.
RESUMO
Patterned arrays of perovskite single crystals can avoid signal cross-talk in optoelectronic devices, while precise crystal distribution plays a crucial role in enhancing device performance and uniformity, optimizing photoelectric characteristics, and improving optical management. Here, we report a strategy of droplet-assisted self-alignment to precisely assemble the perovskite single-crystal arrays (PSCAs). High-quality single-crystal arrays of hybrid methylammonium lead bromide (MAPbBr3) and methylammonium lead chloride (MAPbCl3), and cesium lead bromide (CsPbBr3) can be precipitated under a formic acid vapor environment. The crystals floated within the suspended droplets undergo movement and rotation for precise alignment. The strategy allows us to deposit PSCAs with a pixel size range from 200 to 500 micrometers on diverse substrates, including indium tin oxide, glass, quartz, and poly(dimethylsiloxane), and the area can reach up to 10 centimeters by 10 centimeters. The PSCAs exhibit excellent photodetector performance with a large responsivity of 24 amperes per watt.
RESUMO
2D perovskites have greatly improved moisture stability owing to the large organic cations embedded in the inorganic octahedral structure, which also suppresses the ions migration and reduces the dark current. The suppression of ions migration by 2D perovskites effectively suppresses excessive device noise and baseline drift and shows excellent potential in the direct X-ray detection field. In addition, 2D perovskites have gradually emerged with many unique properties, such as anisotropy, tunable bandgap, high photoluminescence quantum yield, and wide range exciton binding energy, which continuously promote the development of 2D perovskites in ionizing radiation detection. This review aims to systematically summarize the advances and progress of 2D halide perovskite semiconductor and scintillator ionizing radiation detectors, including reported alpha (α) particle, beta (ß) particle, neutron, X-ray, and gamma (γ) ray detection. The unique structural features of 2D perovskites and their advantages in X-ray detection are discussed. Development directions are also proposed to overcome the limitations of 2D halide perovskite radiation detectors.
RESUMO
Advanced photodetectors with intelligent functions are expected to take an important role in future technology. However, completing complex detection tasks within a limited number of pixels is still challenging. Here, we report a differential perovskite hemispherical photodetector serving as a smart locator for intelligent imaging and location tracking. The high external quantum efficiency (~1000%) and low noise (10-13 A Hz-0.5) of perovskite hemispherical photodetector enable stable and large variations in signal response. Analysing the differential light response of only 8 pixels with the computer algorithm can realize the capability of colorful imaging and a computational spectral resolution of 4.7 nm in a low-cost and lensless device geometry. Through machine learning to mimic the differential current signal under different applied biases, one more dimensional detection information can be recorded, for dynamically tracking the running trajectory of an object in a three-dimensional space or two-dimensional plane with a color classification function.
RESUMO
Sensitive and stable perovskite X-ray detectors are attractive in low-dosage medical examinations. The high sensitivity, tunable chemical compositions, electronic dimensions, and low-cost raw materials make perovskites promising next-generation semiconductors. However, their ionic nature brings serious concerns about their chemical and water stability, limiting their applications in well-established technologies like crystal polishing, micro-processing, photolithography, etc. Herein we report a one-dimensional tryptamine lead iodide perovskite, which is stable in water for several months as the strong cation-π interactions between organic cations. The one-dimensional and two-dimensional tryptamine lead iodide perovskite tablets are switchable through thermal-annealing or water-soaking treatments to relax microstrains. The water-stable and microstrain-free one-dimensional perovskite tablets yield a large sensitivity of 2.5 × 106 µC Gyair-1 cm-2 with the lowest detectable dose rate of 5 nGyair s-1. Microelectrode arrays are realized by surface photolithography to construct high-performance X-ray flat mini-panels with good X-ray imaging capability, and a record spatial resolution of 17.2 lp mm-1 is demonstrated.
RESUMO
Metal halide scintillators serve as promising candidates for X-ray detection due to their high attenuation coefficients, high light yields, and low-cost solution-processable characteristics. However, the issues of humidity/thermal quenching and mechanical fragility, remain obstacles to the broad and diversified development of metal halide scintillators. Here, this work reports a lead-free, water-stable, stretchable, and self-healing (ethylenebis-triphenylphosphonium manganese (II) bromide (C38H34P2)MnBr4 organogel scintillator that meets X-ray imaging in complex scenarios. The robust organogel scintillator can be stretched with elongation up to 1300% while maintaining the scintillation properties. Activated by the dynamic hydrogen bonds and coordination bonds design, the organogel scintillator exhibits excellent self-healing properties at room temperature to alleviate the vignetting problem of the rigid scintillator films, the X-ray imaging resolution can reach 16.7 lp mm-1. The organogel scintillator can also realize flexible and self-healing X-ray imaging in water, providing a design path for portable devices in harsh conditions.
RESUMO
High quality CdHgTe quasi core/shell nanocrystals (NCs) were prepared via the one-step method. The relationship between the composition, structure, and property was systematically investigated by the combination of X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), inductively coupled plasma atomic emission (ICP), and the photoluminescence (PL) measurements. The quantum yield (QY) was ~50% when the feed ratio of Cd(2+) to Hg(2+) was equal to 1. The PL property was further polished, and the QY was improved to ~80% through the variance of the prepared conditions such as the ratio of ligand to metal ion and HTe(-) to metal ion, pH value, and temperature. In addition, the cytotoxic effects of CdHgTe NCs were systematically studied. The results showed that, for Cd0.21Hg0.79Te NCs, its quasi core/shell structure was very stable and little cadmium ions were released. As a result, such NCs showed little cytotoxicity and would find applications in tissue imaging or detection.

Recent years have witnessed an increasing focus on graph-based semi-supervised learning with Graph Neural Networks (GNNs). Despite existing GNNs having achieved remarkable accuracy, research on the quality of graph supervision information has inadvertently been ignored. In fact, there are significant differences in the quality of supervision information provided by different labeled nodes, and treating supervision information with different qualities equally may lead to sub-optimal performance of GNNs. We refer to this as the graph supervision loyalty problem, which is a new perspective for improving the performance of GNNs. In this paper, we devise FT-Score to quantify node loyalty by considering both the local feature similarity and the local topology similarity, and nodes with higher loyalty are more likely to provide higher-quality supervision. Based on this, we propose LoyalDE (Loyal Node Discovery and Emphasis), a model-agnostic hot-plugging training strategy, which can discover potential nodes with high loyalty to expand the training set, and then emphasize nodes with high loyalty during model training to improve performance. Experiments demonstrate that the graph supervision loyalty problem will fail most existing GNNs. In contrast, LoyalDE brings about at most 9.1% performance improvement to vanilla GNNs and consistently outperforms several state-of-the-art training strategies for semi-supervised node classification.

Tin perovskites have emerged as a promising alternative material to address the toxicity of lead perovskites and the low bandgap of around 1.1 eV is also compatible with tandem solar cell applications. Nevertheless, the optoelectronic performance of solution-processed tin perovskite single-crystal counterparts still lags behind because of the tin instability under ambient conditions during crystal growth and limited reductants to protect the Sn2+ ions from oxidation. Here, the reductant engineering to grow high-quality tin perovskite single crystals under ambient conditions is studied. Oxalic acid (H2 C2 O4 ) serves as an excellent reductant and sacrificial agent to protect Sn2+ ions in methanol due to its suitable redox potential of -0.49 V, and the CO2 as the oxidation product in the gas state can be easily separated from the solution. The FPEA2 SnI4 single crystal grown by this strategy exhibits low trap density perovskite surface by constructing an FPEA2 PbI4 -FPEA2 SnI4 (FPI-FSI) single crystal heterojunction for X-ray detection. An improved X-ray sensitivity of 1.7 × 105 µC Gy-1 cm-2 is realized in the heterojunction device, outperforming the control FPEA2 PbI4 counterpart.
RESUMO
The diversity of organic cations greatly enriches the species of 2D perovskites; traditional 2D Ruddlesden-Popper (RP) and Dion-Jacobson (DJ) perovskites are synthesized by two different organic amines. Here, according to the difference in pKa values between conjugated acids of monoprotonated and biprotonated 4-(2-Aminoethyl)pyridine (4AEPy) ions, the 2D perovskites of RP (4AEPy)2 PbI4 and DJ (4AEPy)PbI4 from same organic amine is reported, which can realize reversible transformation under the treatment of HI and NH3 , respectively. The interaction of N-H···N hydrogen bond between adjacent organic molecules in (4AEPy)2 PbI4 leads to the bending conformation of ethylamine groups, which results in a 2.4 Å reduction in layer spacing compared to typical phenylethylamine lead iodine ((PEA)2 PbI4 ) 2D perovskite. Besides, the ethylamine groups of organic layers in (4AEPy)PbI4 are deeply inserted into octahedral cavities and directly participate in the construction of the conduction band minimum, which leads to a small exciton binding energy of 27.3 meV to generate free charges. The stronger coupling between the organic and inorganic layers and the minor exciton binding energy can promote the DJ phase to possess a more stable structure and better optoelectronic properties. Thus the (4AEPy)PbI4 device displays better light response and X-ray detection capability with a high sensitivity of 5627 µC Gyair -1 cm-2 and the lowest detectable dose rate of 20 nGyair s-1 .
RESUMO
Film uniformity of solution-processed layers is the cornerstone of large-area perovskite light-emitting diodes, which is often determined by the 'coffee-ring effect'. Here we demonstrate a second factor that cannot be ignored is the solid-liquid interface interaction between substrate and precursor and can be optimized to eliminate rings. A perovskite film with rings can be formed when cations dominate the solid-liquid interface interaction; whereas smooth and homogeneous perovskite emitting layers are generated when anions and anion groups dominate the interaction. This is due to the fact that the type of ions anchored to the substrate can determine how the subsequent film grows. This interfacial interaction is adjusted using carbonized polymer dots, who also orient the perovskite crystals and passivate their buried traps, enabling a 225 mm2 large-area perovskite light-emitting diode with a high efficiency of 20.2%.
RESUMO
Sphere imagers featuring specific wavelength recognition and wide-angle imaging are required to meet the fast development of modern technology. However, it is still challenging to deposit high-quality photosensitive layers on sphere substrates from low-cost solution processes. Here we report spray-coated quasi-two-dimensional phenylethylammonium/formamidinium lead halide (PEA2FAn-1PbnX3n+1) perovskite hemispherical photodetectors. The crystallization speed is manipulated by perovskite compositions, and the film thickness can be controlled by spray-coating cycles and solution concentration from tens of nanometers to hundreds of micrometers with a fast velocity of 1.28 × 10-4 cm3 s-1. The lens-free hemispherical photodetectors allow light response at a wide incident angle of 180°. Simultaneously, the wavelength selective response from visible to the near-infrared range is achieved with full width at half maximums (FWHMs) of ~20 nm, comparable to single-crystal devices. Wide-angle and wavelength-selective imaging are also demonstrated, which can find potential applications in intelligent recognition and intraoperative navigated surgery.
RESUMO
Metal halide perovskite scintillators encounter unprecedented opportunities in indirect ionizing radiation detection due to their high quantum yields. However, the long scintillation lifetime of microseconds upon irradiation, known as the afterglow phenomenon, obviously limits their fast development. Here, a new type of hybrid X-ray detector wafer combining direct methylamine lead iodide (MAPbI3 ) semiconductor and indirect zero-dimensional cesium copper iodide (Cs3 Cu2 I5 ) scintillator through low-cost fast tableting processes is reported. Due to the fast energy transfer from Cs3 Cu2 I5 to MAPbI3 , the device response time to X-rays is dramatically reduced by nearly 30 times to 36.6 ns, which enables fast X-ray detection capability by a large area detector arrays within 1 s. Moreover, Cs3 Cu2 I5 exists at the grain boundaries of MAPbI3 crystals, and blocks the paths of mobile ions of perovskite, leading to the lowest detectable dose rate of hybrid X-ray detector is thus reduced by 1.5 times compared with control MAPbI3 direct-type semiconductor, and 10 times compared with the Cs3 Cu2 I5 indirect-type scintillator. The direct/indirect hybrid wafer also exhibits improved operation stability at ambient conditions without any encapsulation. This new kind of hybrid X-ray detectors provides strong competitiveness by combining the advantages of both direct perovskite semiconductors and indirect perovskite scintillators for next-generation products.
