Herein, we describe simple, fast and reproducible halide ion exchange reactions in CsPbX3 (X = Cl, Br, I) nanocrystals (NCs) at room temperature. Through the simple adjustment of the halide ion concentration, the photoluminescence of these NCs can be tuned over the entire visible region (425-655 nm). Photodetector devices based on entirely inorganic CsPbI3 NCs are demonstrated for the first time. The photodetectors exhibited a good on/off photocurrent ratio of 10(5).

We demonstrate a highly sensitive hybrid photodetector based on graphene–CsPbBr3−xIx perovskite nanocrystals.
