A radiation detector includes a p-i-n architecture including a p-type contact layer, an n-type contact layer, and an intrinsic layer between the p-type contact layer and the n-type contact layer. The intrinsic layer includes a thin film comprising a highly crystalline 2D layered perovskite material. The radiation detectors according to embodiments of the present disclosure generate high open circuit voltages, have good detecting photon density limits and high sensitivities, and can be self-powered.

Sensitive and robust thin film X-ray detector using 2D layered perovskite diodes

A thin film for an optoelectronic device includes a layered 2D perovskite material. The thin film including the layered 2D perovskite material forms a substantially or nearly single-crystalline highly uniform thin film with strongly preferential out-of-plane alignment of the inorganic perovskite layers. This single-crystalline, highly uniform, and highly aligned thin film of the layered 2D perovskite material may thereby facilitate efficient charge transport in an optoelectronic device.
