Whole‐Device Mass‐Producible Perovskite Photodetector Based on Laser‐Induced Graphene Electrodes

Abstract

AbstractPerovskites have attracted enormous attention in optoelectronics, owing to their excellent optoelectronic properties, low‐cost constituents, and simple solution fabrication approaches. Despite significant advances in large‐scale production of perovskite films, electrode layers—indispensable components of an optoelectronic device—are typically fabricated by depositing noble metals onto perovskite films using complicated techniques, which hinder the large‐scale production of optoelectronic devices. Herein, a whole‐device mass‐producible perovskite photodetector is developed using low‐cost and high‐scalability direct laser writing (DLW) of laser‐induced graphene on a flexible polyimide (PI) film as electrodes, followed by depositing a formamidinium cesium lead triiodide perovskite film using solution methods as the sensing element. The fabricated device exhibits a broad bandwidth (from 365 to 940 nm), a decent responsivity (15.1 mA W−1) and detectivity (5.12 × 1013 Jones), a large photo‐to‐dark current ratio (47.2), and short response time (rise time = 0.4 s and decay time = 0.4 s). The device demonstrates a high humidity (relative humidity = 85%) stability, a long‐term (>48 days) stability, and a high flexibility (0°/90° bending cycles > 1000 times) after encapsulation. The developed whole‐device scalable fabrication sheds light on the mass production and commercialization of perovskite based optoelectronic devices and flexible electronics.
