Abstract
AbstractPerovskite planar heterojunction is reported to promote charge‐carrier separation at the interface due to the introduced built‐in potential, leading to improved charge‐carrier harvesting. However, the possible diffusion of charge carriers along the film lateral will increase their travel distance to respective electrodes, resulting in increased recombination probabilities. Constructing independent transport channels for positive and negative charge carriers individually is an efficient way to optimize the transport in the perovskite layer and thereby to achieve enhanced device performance. Here, a solution‐based strategy is proposed to fabricate lateral bulk heterojunction (BHJ) by arranging methylammonium‐based and formamidinium‐based perovskites alternately in an ordered array with controllable domains. The structure of perovskite heterodomain directs charge carrier transport along the film normal and limits in‐plane charge carrier diffusion. Moreover, the ordered perovskite array is found to greatly increase light harvesting. Consequently, the self‐powered photodetector based on the perovskite heterodomain with a thickness of only 250 nm achieves a specific detectivity exceeding 1 × 1014 Jones for weak light over the whole visible light spectrum. This work provides guidance toward the fabrication of perovskite lateral BHJ using solution processing, meeting the requirements not only for charge‐carrier manipulation but also for light management.
