Abstract

We have fabricated planar interdigitated photodetectors exhibiting high responsivity. These detectors are based on thin layers of methylammonium lead bromide (MAPbBr3) at 90 nm thickness. MAPbBr3 thin films were first characterized on glass (borosilicate) substrates using absorption and photoluminescence measurements showing a high absorption edge at 521 nm and strong emission at 530 nm, as expected. MAPbBr3 thin films were then deposited on top of interdigitated electrodes, hence producing planar photodetectors with responsivity up to 0.4 A/W. Such higher performances were attributed to the interdigitated design, low crack density (0.05 µm−2), and lower resistivity (20 MΩ.cm) compared to MAPbBr3 single crystal. Therefore, this work highlights MAPbBr3 thin films as very promising for photodetection applications.
