Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The application belongs to the technical field of image processing, and particularly relates to a lead-free perovskite hemispherical photodetector, a preparation method and application thereof in single-pixel lensless color imaging. BACKGROUND

[0002] With the rapid development of the Internet of Things and artificial intelligence technology, the way of information acquisition and processing is undergoing profound changes. In this context, optical information processing technology, especially photodetector technology, has become particularly important due to its wide application in optical imaging, biological detection, optical communication, and military security. Photodetectors can convert optical signals into electrical signals, which is the primary step of information acquisition, and its performance directly affects the accuracy and efficiency of subsequent information processing.

[0003] Traditional optical imaging technology relies on a complex filter system and multi-pixel array. This complexity not only increases the cost and maintenance difficulty of the system, but also limits its flexibility and efficiency in specific application scenarios. Especially in applications that require fast response and high-resolution imaging, such as night monitoring and biomedical imaging, existing technology is difficult to meet the demand. In addition, the integration of multi-pixel arrays also increases the volume and energy consumption of the system, which is not conducive to application in portable devices.

[0004] In extreme environments such as low light and high temperature, the performance of existing photodetectors often suffers significant impact. In particular, silicon photomultipliers (SiPMs) may experience a sharp decline in imaging quality under these harsh conditions, which greatly limits their potential use in a wider range of application scenarios. The main reason is that the thermal noise of semiconductor materials will increase significantly in high-temperature environments. The rise of this noise not only leads to an increase in device noise, but also causes fluctuations in dark current. These factors work together to ultimately affect the clarity and reliability of imaging. Therefore, improving the performance of photodetectors in complex environments has become a pressing technical problem to ensure that they can work stably and reliably under various conditions.

[0005] In recent years, perovskite photodetectors have attracted much attention due to their outstanding performance. These detectors not only have high sensitivity, wide spectral response range, fast response rate, low noise, and other characteristics, but also have the advantages of simple preparation process, low cost, strong environmental adaptability, and scalability and multifunctionality. These characteristics make perovskite photodetectors have great application potential in the field of photoelectric imaging. However, many high-performance photodetectors currently rely on lead-containing perovskite materials. Although these materials perform excellently in photoelectric performance, the toxicity of lead limits their use in certain application scenarios. In addition, traditional planar photodetectors also have certain limitations in wide-angle detection and light signal collection efficiency. When receiving scattered light, the planar structure of the detector is limited by its receiving area and angle, making it difficult to effectively capture light signals from different directions, thereby reducing the collection efficiency of light signals. In view of this, it is particularly urgent to develop a new type of lead-free perovskite hemispherical photodetector. This detector can realize color imaging in complex environments, not only solving the problem of lead pollution, but also improving the collection efficiency of light signals and widening the application range of photodetectors.

A color Fourier basis pattern is generated by using a digital projector and illuminating the target imaging object. The color Fourier basis pattern is generated by a computer and the projector is controlled to project the pattern onto the target object. The reflected light of the object under the structured light pattern illumination is collected by the perovskite hemispherical photodetector and converted into an electrical signal.

By calculating the current value obtained by the perovskite hemispherical photodetector, the Fourier coefficients of the image of the target object can be obtained. Then, using the inverse Fourier transform, these spectral coefficients can be converted back to the spatial domain, thereby reconstructing the grayscale image of the object.

[0044] Embodiment 1

[0045] Preparation of lead-free perovskite hemispherical photodetector and color imaging, as follows:

[0046] (a) Preparation of CsBi3I 10 - Guanidinium thiocyanate perovskite precursor solution: Cesium iodide and bismuth iodide powders were dissolved in a mixed solvent of N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF) and dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) (volume ratio of DMF and DMSO was 9:1) at a molar ratio of 1:3, and 1 mol% of guanidinium thiocyanate (GTC) was added to form CsBi3I 10 - Guanidinium thiocyanate perovskite precursor solution (CsBi3I 10 - GTC-1).

[0047] (b) Manufacturing of hemispherical device: First, a hemispherical glass substrate with a radius of 5 mm was treated with ultraviolet ozone for 20 minutes, and then a 100 nm chromium electrode layer was deposited on the spherical surface by vacuum thermal evaporation at a deposition rate of 0.1 A / s. After the deposition of the chromium electrode layer was completed, the substrate was treated with ultraviolet ozone for 20 minutes, and then transferred to a plasma treatment chamber (radio frequency power of 200 W, working gas of nitrogen) for 5 minutes. Next, the treated hemispherical glass substrate was fixed on a stainless steel plate and heated to 100°C. At the same time, a tin dioxide solution was dissolved in deionized water at a volume ratio of 1:12 to obtain a 1.5wt% tin dioxide aqueous solution, and a spray gun with a nozzle diameter of 2 mm was used to uniformly spray the heated hemispherical substrate to obtain an electron transport layer with a thickness of 100 nm. After spraying the tin dioxide aqueous solution, the chromium / tin dioxide substrate was heat annealed at 150°C for 30 minutes. Then, the treated substrate was re-fixed and heated to 100°C, and a spray gun with a nozzle diameter of 2 mm was used to uniformly spray the CsBi3I 10 - Guanidinium thiocyanate perovskite precursor solution on the treated chromium / tin dioxide substrate to obtain a perovskite layer with a thickness of 1.5 μm. After spraying, the entire device was heat annealed at 125°C for 30 minutes. Then, the hemispherical glass substrate obtained in step (2) was heated to 100°C, and poly[bis(4-phenyl)(2,4,6-trimethylphenyl)amine] was dissolved in toluene, with a concentration of 0.5 mg mL -1 -1, and a spray gun with a nozzle diameter of 2 mm was used to uniformly spray it on the heated substrate and heat annealed at 110°C for 10 minutes to obtain a hole transport layer with a thickness of 30 nm. Finally, 10 nm of chromium and 10 nm of gold were directly deposited on the device by vacuum thermal evaporation at a deposition rate of 0.1 A / s. The schematic structure of the obtained lead-free perovskite hemispherical photodetector is shown in Figure 1 .

[0048] (c) Perform color imaging and detection of the target object: The color imaging process is as follows Figure 2 As shown, a colored Fourier basis pattern is first generated using a digital projector to illuminate the target object. The colored Fourier basis pattern is generated by a computer, and the projector is controlled to project the pattern onto the target object. The intensity of the diffuse light is approximately 30 μW cm⁻¹. -2 The reflected light from the object under structured light pattern illumination is collected by a perovskite hemispherical photodetector and converted into an electrical signal. The converted electrical signal is then collected by a power meter as a digital signal and transmitted to a computer for storage and recording.

[0049] (d) Calculating and processing to obtain the color image of the target object: The core of Fourier single-pixel imaging lies in decomposing the image information of the target object into the frequency domain through Fourier transform, that is, obtaining the Fourier spectrum of the image. This process is usually achieved by projecting a series of Fourier basis patterns onto the target object, and using a single-pixel detector to measure the light intensity values ​​reflected from these patterns on the object and converting them into current values ​​for recording. The coefficients of the image in the Fourier domain, i.e., the Fourier spectrum, can be calculated using the recorded current values. By calculating the current values ​​obtained from the perovskite hemispherical photodetector in step (c), the Fourier coefficients of the target object image can be obtained. Then, using inverse Fourier transform, these spectral coefficients can be converted back to the spatial domain, thereby reconstructing the grayscale image of the object. Since the illumination is achieved using a colored Fourier basis pattern, the reconstructed object image is identical to the original pattern acquired by a monochrome image sensor in traditional color imaging. Therefore, the color image of the object can be reconstructed from the grayscale image using the same demosaic algorithm used for color restoration in traditional color imaging.

[0053] (b) Fabrication of the hemispherical device: First, a hemispherical glass substrate with a radius of 5 mm was treated with ultraviolet ozone for 20 minutes. Then, a 100 nm chromium electrode was deposited on the spherical surface of the hemispherical glass substrate by vacuum thermal evaporation. After the chromium electrode deposition, the substrate was treated with ultraviolet ozone for 20 minutes, and then transferred to a plasma treatment chamber (RF power 200 W, working gas nitrogen) for 5 minutes. Next, the treated hemispherical glass substrate was fixed on a stainless steel plate and heated to 100 °C. Simultaneously, a tin dioxide solution was dissolved in deionized water at a volume ratio of 1:12 to obtain a 1.5 wt% tin dioxide aqueous solution, which was uniformly sprayed onto the heated hemispherical substrate using a spray gun with a nozzle diameter of 2 mm, resulting in an electron transport layer thickness of 100 nm. After spraying the tin dioxide aqueous solution, the chromium / tin dioxide substrate was thermally annealed at 150 °C for 30 minutes. Then, the treated substrate was refixed and heated to 100 °C. Then, CsBi3I was sprayed onto the substrate using a spray gun with a nozzle diameter of 2 mm. 10 Perovskite precursor (CsBi3I) 10 The GTC-0 solution was uniformly sprayed onto the treated chromium / tin dioxide substrate, resulting in a perovskite layer with a thickness of 1.5 μm. After spraying, the entire device was thermally annealed at 125 °C for 30 minutes. Then, the hemispherical glass substrate obtained in step (2) was heated to 100 °C, and poly[bis(4-phenyl)(2,4,6-trimethylphenyl)amine] was dissolved in toluene at a concentration of 0.5 mg / mL. -1 The hole transport layer was uniformly sprayed onto a heated substrate using a spray gun with a nozzle diameter of 2 mm and then thermally annealed at 110°C for 10 minutes, resulting in a hole transport layer thickness of 30 nm.

[0054] (c) Perform color imaging and detection of the target object: The color imaging process is as follows Figure 2 As shown, a colored Fourier basis pattern is first generated using a digital projector to illuminate the target object. The colored Fourier basis pattern is generated by a computer, and the projector is controlled to project the pattern onto the target object. The intensity of the diffuse light is approximately 30 μW cm⁻¹. -2 The reflected light from the object under structured light pattern illumination is collected by a perovskite hemispherical photodetector and converted into an electrical signal. The converted electrical signal is then collected by a power meter as a digital signal and transmitted to a computer for storage and recording.

[0055] (d) Calculating the color image of the target object: The core of Fourier ptychographic imaging is to decompose the image information of the target object into the frequency domain through Fourier transform, that is, to obtain the Fourier spectrum of the image. This process is usually achieved by projecting a series of Fourier basis patterns onto the target object, and using a single-pixel detector to measure the light intensity values of the reflected patterns on the object and convert them into current values for recording. Through the recorded current values, the coefficients of the image in the Fourier domain, that is, the Fourier spectrum, can be calculated. By calculating the current values obtained by the perovskite hemispherical photodetector in step (c), the Fourier coefficients of the image of the target object can be obtained. Then, using the inverse Fourier transform, these spectral coefficients can be converted back to the spatial domain, thereby reconstructing the gray-scale image of the object. Since the color Fourier basis patterns are used for illumination, the reconstructed image of the object is the same as the original pattern captured by the monochrome image sensor in traditional color imaging. Therefore, the same de-mosaicing algorithm for color restoration in traditional color imaging can be used to reconstruct the color image of the object from the gray-scale image.

[0066] (c) Perform color imaging and detection of the target object: The color imaging process is as follows Figure 2 As shown, a colored Fourier basis pattern is first generated using a digital projector to illuminate the target object. The colored Fourier basis pattern is generated by a computer, and the projector is controlled to project the pattern onto the target object. The intensity of the diffuse light is approximately 30 μW cm⁻¹. -2 The reflected light from the object under structured light pattern illumination is collected by a perovskite hemispherical photodetector and converted into an electrical signal. The converted electrical signal is then collected by a power meter as a digital signal and transmitted to a computer for storage and recording.

[0067] (d) Calculating and processing to obtain the color image of the target object: The core of Fourier single-pixel imaging lies in decomposing the image information of the target object into the frequency domain through Fourier transform, that is, obtaining the Fourier spectrum of the image. This process is usually achieved by projecting a series of Fourier basis patterns onto the target object, and using a single-pixel detector to measure the light intensity values ​​reflected from these patterns on the object and converting them into current values ​​for recording. The coefficients of the image in the Fourier domain, i.e., the Fourier spectrum, can be calculated using the recorded current values. By calculating the current values ​​obtained from the perovskite hemispherical photodetector in step (c), the Fourier coefficients of the target object image can be obtained. Then, using inverse Fourier transform, these spectral coefficients can be converted back to the spatial domain, thereby reconstructing the grayscale image of the object. Since the illumination is achieved using a colored Fourier basis pattern, the reconstructed object image is identical to the original pattern acquired by a monochrome image sensor in traditional color imaging. Therefore, the color image of the object can be reconstructed from the grayscale image using the same demosaic algorithm used in traditional color imaging for color restoration.
