Summary: Based on the hot-casting method, uniform and compact 2D-3D gradient perovskite thin films were prepared by investigating the effects of substrate temperature on the surface morphology and internal phases distribution of 2D perovskite films. The gradient phase distribution along the longitudinal direction of the thin film improves the photosensitivity of the photodiode over the whole visible spectrum range.

Summary: Organic photodetectors (OPDs) for near infrared (NIR) light detection, constructed by the sequential deposition (SD) method, exhibit high detectivity, reduced dark currents, and superior performance compared to devices made by blend casting (BC) method. The vertical phase segregation structure of SD devices leads to a significantly lower dark current, resulting in improved D* values under different bias voltages.

Summary: Halide perovskites are promising materials for optoelectronic devices due to their outstanding properties and relatively low cost. However, the instability of common precursor solutions hampers large-scale low-cost production. In this study, a solid-liquid convertible perovskite precursor was developed using water, which exhibited high damp air stability and processibility for perovskite growth. By guiding the growth direction of perovskite, the film quality was significantly improved. The precursor was successfully used for fabricating self-driven halide perovskite photodetectors with low noise current, high specific detectivity, and high stability.
