Abstract:Three-electronic-dimensional (3D) lead halide perovskites show high X-ray sensitivities and low detection limits. However, the serve ion migration causes dark current drift and worse long-term operational stability. Although two-electronic-dimensional (2D)...
“…The effect of THB modification on the ion migration of the perovskite was further evaluated. In general, the ionic conductivity (σ) measurement is considered to be an effective way to obtain ionic migration activation energy ( E a ) . Therefore, we prepared an ITO/perovskite/Au device and measured the σ changes of two films at different temperatures (Figure c,d).…”
Wide-bandgap (WBG) inverted perovskite solar cells (PSCs)
are used
as the top cell for tandem solar cells, which is an effective way
to outperform the Shockley–Queisser limit. However, the low
efficiency and poor phase stability still seriously restrict the application
of WBG inverted PSCs. Here, the surface of the WBG perovskite film
was passivated by the synthesized 1,2,4-tris(3-thienyl)benzene (THB).
The THB size well matches with the halogen ion vacancy on the perovskite
surface, and the S atom in THB can strongly interact with Pb2+ on the surface of the WBG perovskite film to the greatest extent,
which effectively passivates surface defects and suppresses the recombination
of carriers caused by these defects. At the same time, the S atom
in THB occupied the migration site of the halogen ions, which inhibits
the migration of halogen ions. Due to the strong conjugation effect
and stability of THB, it can be locked on the surface of perovskite
to increase the lattice strength and inhibit the segregation of photoinduced
halide, thus improving the performance and operational stability of
PSCs. The THB-modified WBG (E
g = 1.71
eV) PSC achieves a maximum power conversion efficiency of 20.75%,
and its 99.0% is retained after 1512 h at a relative humidity of 10–25%.
Under the irradiation of 1000 lx LED light, the indoor power conversion
efficiency of the THB-modified WBG PSC reaches 34.15%.

“…6, among all materials, the n = 10 material exhibits the lowest dark current density, approximately 66 nA cm −2 . Dening the current dri value 32 as the difference in current density at the start and end points per unit time and per unit eld strength, the degree and magnitude of current dri for different materials are quantied. The dark current dri values for n = 6 and n = 10 materials are less than those of the unmodied material devices, especially the n = 10 material, which exhibits higher stability in terms of dark current, with relatively small dark current dri, only 0.016 pA cm −1 s −1 V −1 .…”
Sensitive, flexible, and low false alarm rate X‐ray detector is crucial for medical diagnosis, industrial inspection, and scientific research. However, most semiconductors for X‐ray detectors are susceptible to interference from ambient light, and their high thickness hinders their application in wearable electronics. Herein, a flexible visible‐blind and ultraviolet‐blind X‐ray detector based on Indium‐doped Gallium oxide (Ga2O3:In) single microwire is prepared. Joint experiment−theory characterizations reveal that the Ga2O3:In microwire possess a high crystal quality, large band gap, and satisfactory stability, and reliability. On this basis, an extraordinary sensitivity of 5.9 × 105 µC Gyair−1 cm−2 and a low detection limit of 67.4 nGyair s−1 are achieved based on the prepared Ag/Ga2O3:In/Ag device, which has outstanding operation stability and excellent high temperature stability. Taking advantage of the flexible properties of the single microwire, a portable X‐ray detection system is demonstrated that shows the potential to adapt to flexible and lightweight formats. The proposed X‐ray detection system enables real‐time monitor for X‐rays, which can be displayed on the user interface. More importantly, it has excellent resistance to natural light interference, showing a low false alarm rate. This work provides a feasible method for exploring high‐performance flexible integrated micro/nano X‐ray detection devices.
