Abstract
AbstractBroadband photodetectors based on TiO2 nanotubes (NTs) array have significant prospects in many fields such as environmental monitoring. Herein, a simple spin‐coating process is successfully adopted to incorporate MAPbI3 quantum dots (QDs) onto the surface of TiO2 NTs to form a heterostructure, extending the response range of TiO2 NT from ultraviolet to visible. Compared with pure TiO2 NTs, the heterostructure demonstrates an improvement of responsivity in visible range by three orders of magnitude, and maintains its response performance in the UV range simultaneously. The TiO2 NTs based heterostructure photodetectors demonstrate a relative fast and stable response in the 300–800 nm range and even have a reponsivity of 0.2 A W−1 at 700 nm. The photoelectric performance of the hybrid photodetector based on TiO2 NTs maintains well when exposed to moist air for 72 h or heated from room temperature to 100 °C. Moreover, such a TiO2 NTs/MAPbI3 QDs heterostructure device demonstrates excellent flexibility and high transparency (85%) in the 400–800 nm range, their photodetecting performance is well retained after 200 cycles of repeated bending at 90°. The present strategy that combines facile electrospinning and solution‐processed QDs may open a new avenue for wide range response and flexible devices construction.
