Abstract
A broadband photodetector response in the ultraviolet (UV)-to-green range (up to 530 nm) based on perovskite CsPbBr3 nanocrystals (NCs)/ZnO-microwires (MWs) heterostructures was realized via a convenient spin-coating method. Under UV light (365 nm) illumination, compared with a bare-ZnO-MW-based photodetector, the CsPbBr3-NCs/ZnO-MWs-heterostructure-based photodetector exhibited a faster photoresponse (<0.1 s) and higher current responsivity (93.50 AW−1), external quantum efficiency (3399%), and detectivity (4.4 × 1010). In addition, the photodetector based on CsPbBr3-NCs/ZnO-MWs heterostructures also exhibited a very fast photoresponse to green light (530 nm). These can be ascribed to the strong light-trapping ability of CsPbBr3 NCs and high charge-transfer efficiency at the CsPbBr3-NCs/ZnO-MWs-heterojunction interface due to the built-in field, which facilitates the spatial separation of the photogenerated carriers. Therefore, this work will develop perovskite/ZnO nanomaterials as promising building blocks for broadband photodetectors and wider optoelectronic applications.
