文摘有机-无机卤化物钙钛矿因其可溶液加工和优异的光电特性而在光电探测器(PD)中得到了广泛应用.然而,基于钙钛矿的PD一般需要电荷传输层提供足够的分离和传输驱动力,这会增加钙钛矿PD的材料成本.本研究通过溶液法制备了基于苯基三甲基氯化铵(PTACl)处理的无电荷传输层钙钛矿自供电PD.以(CsFAMA)Pb(BrI)3作为光活性层,这种三元阳离子混合卤化物钙钛矿沉积后的垂直分布差异为电荷分离和传输提供了驱动力,PTACl处理能加强电荷分离和运输.这种PD在自供电模式下表现出优异的光电探测性能,其中光暗电流比为1.8×10^(5),响应度为198 mA W^(−1),探测率为1.48×10^(13)/1.24×10^(11) Jones(暗/噪声电流法计算).没有封装的PD在700 h的测试中也表现出良好的空气稳定性,且该PD对0.64 nW cm^(−2)的弱光仍有明显的响应,PD阵列也验证了这种弱光检测能力.本工作制备的钙钛矿自供电PD为弱光检测的发展提供了一种简单可行的途径.
