Description
Application of a self-driven perovskite photodetector in visible light sensing chips Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of visible light detection, specifically relating to the application of a self-driven perovskite photodetector in a visible light photosensitive chip. Background Technology
[0002] Visible photodetectors are electronic devices that convert light signals in the 400-780nm wavelength range into electrical signals. They are widely used in various fields of military and civilian production and daily life, such as visible light measurement, imaging, communication, medical monitoring, and industrial automatic control. Commercial visible photodetectors are mainly based on inorganic semiconductor silicon, but silicon faces two major challenges in the field of visible light detection:
[0003] (1) Silicon has high responsivity in the infrared band, so an infrared filter is needed. However, the use of the filter will reduce light absorption, especially in the red band of visible light, which reduces the device responsivity and sensitivity.
[0004] (2) Silicon is an indirect bandgap semiconductor material with a low absorption coefficient in the visible light band. In order to improve the visible light detection performance of the device, an additional power supply is required to drive it, and the manufacturing process of single crystal silicon is complex.
[0005] Therefore, the aforementioned problems or shortcomings not only increase manufacturing costs but also make it difficult to meet the development requirements of miniaturization and portability of electronic devices, resulting in limited applications. In particular, it is relatively difficult to provide long-term power in some extreme or harsh environments. Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop a visible photodetector that can operate on its own and has excellent detection performance.
[0006] Organic-inorganic hybrid lead halide perovskites can be prepared using a low-temperature solution method, which is simple and provides a direct bandgap semiconductor material. They exhibit high visible light absorption coefficients, high carrier mobility, and no infrared response, making them ideal next-generation visible light detection materials. Currently reported high-efficiency self-driven perovskite visible photodetectors achieve fast response, large linear dynamic range, and high specific detectivity, with detection performance comparable to single-crystal silicon. Unfortunately, these devices are based on the relatively unstable three-dimensional perovskite material, exhibiting poor long-term operational stability (less than 50 hours, according to Nat. Electron. 3, 156–164 (2020); Nat. Electron. 5, 511–518 (2022)), failing to meet the stable operational requirements of practical applications. Low-dimensional perovskite detectors, with their inherent high stability, exhibit significant advantages in operational stability. However, their large exciton binding energy and continuous horizontal growth parallel to the substrate direction hinder carrier diffusion and collection in the device's operating direction, resulting in visible light detection performance far inferior to three-dimensional perovskite detectors (NanoEnergy 57, 761–770 (2019)). In summary, the reported self-driven perovskite visible photodetectors cannot simultaneously meet the requirements of high performance and stable operation for commercial detectors. Summary of the Invention
[0007] To address the limitation of applications caused by insufficient visible light detection performance of existing silicon-based and perovskite visible light detectors, this invention provides an efficient, stable, and self-driving perovskite photodetector for use in visible-band photosensitive chips, including but not limited to heart rate and pulse monitoring, container planting, automatic street light activation, automatic brightness adjustment of display panels, and visible light imaging.
[0008] The technical solution of the present invention is as follows:

[0010] The aforementioned visible light photosensitive chips include, but are not limited to, visible light photosensitive chips used in heart rate and pulse monitoring, visible light photosensitive chips used in container planting, visible light photosensitive chips used in automatic street light activation, visible light photosensitive chips used in automatic brightness adjustment of display panels, visible light photosensitive chips used in distance measurement, visible light photosensitive chips used in visible light array imaging, photosensitive chips used in X-ray array imaging, and photosensitive chips used in gamma-ray array imaging.
[0011] The aforementioned self-driven perovskite photodetector includes electrodes, a first charge transport layer, a second charge transport layer, and a perovskite layer. The perovskite layer is a thin film with an interdigitated structure formed by low-dimensional and three-dimensional perovskites. The low-dimensional perovskite can be any one or more combinations of zero-dimensional, one-dimensional, and two-dimensional perovskites. The first charge transport layer is one or more combinations of a hole transport layer and an electron blocking layer, while the second charge transport layer is one or more combinations of an electron transport layer and a hole blocking layer; or the first charge transport layer is one or more combinations of an electron transport layer and a hole blocking layer, while the second charge transport layer is one or more combinations of an electron transport layer or a hole blocking layer. The interdigitated structure formed by the low-dimensional and three-dimensional perovskites is where the low-dimensional perovskite interweaves in an interdigitated manner within the three-dimensional perovskite.

This interdigitated thin film structure ensures that charge carriers can be rapidly dissociated and transported through the three-dimensional perovskite component, ensuring excellent visible light detection performance. Furthermore, the highly stable interdigitated low-dimensional perovskite component present in the thin film can suppress ion migration and increase the device's operational stability. This self-driven perovskite photodetector can be used in visible light band detection applications free from power supply limitations and infrared interference.

[0068] The present invention will be described in detail below with reference to specific embodiments.
[0069] Example 1
[0070] The self-driven perovskite photodetector is fabricated as follows:
[0071] 1) Substrate treatment: The clean ITO conductive glass substrate is subjected to surface oxygen plasma treatment;
[0072] 2) Preparation of hole transport layer (i.e. first charge transport layer): Spin-coat a PTAA solution layer (2-10 mg / ml dissolved in chlorobenzene solvent, doped with 2,3,5,6-tetrafluoro-7,7',8,8'-tetracyanodimethyl-p-benzoquinone (F4-TCNQ), doping concentration of 0.4 mg / ml) onto the treated substrate at a spin speed of 5000 rpm for 30 seconds, followed by annealing at 100°C for 10 minutes.
[0073] 3) Preparation of the perovskite layer: After preheating the substrate to 100℃, a perovskite precursor solution (methylamine chloride, lead iodide, m-fluorobenzylamine iodide, rubidium iodide) with a molar ratio of 2.2:3.5:4:0.03 (30% mass concentration dissolved in DMF solvent) was spin-coated onto the first charge transport layer at a spin speed of 5000 rpm. After spin-coating for 20 seconds, the substrate was annealed at 80-100℃ for 10 minutes.
[0074] 4) Fabrication of the electron transport layer (i.e., the second charge transport layer): The electron transport layer is fabricated on the perovskite layer under a vacuum of 10... -7 During the Torr process, C60 with a wavelength of 60 nm was deposited (the evaporation rate was 0.1 A / s for the first 3 nm, and then the rate increased uniformly to 1 A / s), followed by the deposition of BCP with a wavelength of 15 nm (the evaporation rate was 0.1 A / s for the first 3 nm, and then the rate increased uniformly to 1 A / s).
[0075] 5) Fabrication of metal electrodes: On the electron transport layer at a vacuum level of 10... -7 During the Torr process, Cu with a wavelength of 100 nm was deposited by evaporation (the evaporation rate was 0.3 A / s for the first 3 nm, and then the rate increased uniformly to 1 A / s).
[0076] Figure 1 shows the cross-sectional electron microscope image of the perovskite layer in this embodiment, which reveals the interdigitated morphological structure.
[0077] In this embodiment, the interdigital spacing is 0.001-0.2 μm; the interdigital height is 0.1-0.25 μm; and the perovskite layer thickness is 0.4 μm.
[0078] The absorption spectrum of the perovskite layer in this embodiment is shown in Figure 2. The absorption cutoff is at 780 nm, and there is no infrared response.
[0079] Figure 3 shows a comparison of the noise current of the perovskite photodetector and the commercially available high-performance silicon-based visible light detector (Hamamatsu S1087, Japan) in this embodiment. At 1 Hz, the noise current of the perovskite detector is significantly lower than that of the silicon-based detector. Therefore, it can be reasonably inferred that perovskite will have a lower noise floor than silicon when operating under self-driven DC conditions.
[0080] Figure 4 shows a comparison of the responsivity of the perovskite photodetector and the commercially available high-performance silicon-based visible light detector (Hamamatsu S1087, Japan) under self-driven operation in this embodiment. The responsivity of the perovskite device is higher than that of the silicon detector across the entire visible light band, and the EQE efficiency at each wavelength is closer to the ideal efficiency of 100%. Furthermore, the addition of an infrared filter to the silicon-based detector leads to a significant reduction in the device's responsivity to red light.
[0081] Figure 5 shows a comparison of the working stability of the perovskite photodetector and the high-performance silicon-based visible light detector (Hamamatsu S1087, Japan) with a self-driven on / off time interval of 10 seconds. After 90 hours of continuous operation, the dark current of the perovskite device remains almost unchanged, while the dark current of the silicon detector increases significantly after 60 hours, demonstrating the excellent working stability of the perovskite device.
[0082] In this embodiment, a self-driven perovskite photodetector and a high-performance silicon-based visible light detector (Hamamatsu S1087, Japan) were applied to underwater laser ranging. Figure 6 shows a comparison of the ranging errors under different laser intensities. This experiment simulates the attenuation of underwater laser intensity with increasing distance using laser intensity. The results show that the self-driven perovskite photodetector can still achieve relatively accurate ranging even in low-light conditions.
[0083] The self-driven perovskite photodetector in this embodiment is directly connected to the light source controller of the mobile phone display panel without the need for bias voltage. It is applied in an automatic brightness adjustment system for mobile phone displays, as shown in Figure 7. The self-driven perovskite photodetector can effectively generate photocurrents of varying magnitudes in real time in response to changes in ambient light intensity, thereby sending electrical signals to the panel controller to adjust the light intensity, as shown in Figure 8. Such a self-driven photosensitive chip is not only more energy-efficient, but also reduces the size of traditional photosensitive chips by eliminating the need for a driving power supply and filters, potentially further reducing the thickness of the display panel.
[0084] The self-driven perovskite photodetector and thin-film transistor of this embodiment are integrated for visible light imaging. The imaging results are transmitted to a mobile terminal in real time via WiFi. The visible light imaging test system is shown in Figure 9. The current at each point of the imaging array is obtained through the data reading system, and the data is transmitted to the mobile terminal via WiFi, displaying the corresponding image in 256 grayscale levels. The real-time test imaging results are shown in Figure 10. The real-time displayed imaging results are consistent with the mask pattern, indicating that the perovskite visible light detector imaging array system of this embodiment can clearly and in real time image the mask pattern, possessing good real-time imaging capabilities.
[0085] The comparison of the above detection performance shows that the self-driven perovskite detector in this embodiment can achieve efficient and stable visible light detection.
[0086] Example 2
[0087] The self-driven perovskite photodetector is fabricated as follows:
[0088] 1) Substrate treatment: The clean ITO conductive glass substrate is subjected to surface oxygen plasma treatment;
[0089] 2) Preparation of hole transport layer (i.e. first charge transport layer): spin-coat PEDOT:PSS solution (model 4083) on the treated substrate at a speed of 3000-5000 rpm for 45 seconds, and then anneal at 120-150℃ for 30 minutes.
[0090] 3) Preparation of perovskite layer: A perovskite precursor solution (m-chlorobenzylamine iodine, methylamine chloride, and lead iodide in a molar ratio of 1.6:3.2:4, 35% by mass dissolved in DMF solvent) was spin-coated onto the hole transport layer at a speed of 5000 rpm. After spin-coating for 20 seconds, the solution was annealed at 90°C for 10 minutes.
[0091] 4) Preparation of the electron transport layer (i.e., the second charge transport layer): PC at a concentration of 20 mg / ml was spin-coated onto the perovskite layer. 61 BM solution, solvent is chlorobenzene, rotation speed is 1000 rpm, coating time is 60 seconds;
[0092] 5) Fabrication of metal electrodes: On the electron transport layer at a vacuum level of 10... -7 During the Torr process, 3 nm of Cr was deposited (evaporation rate 0.1 A / s), followed by 100 nm of Cu (evaporation rate of 0.2 A / s for the first 3 nm, then the rate increased uniformly to 1 A / s).
[0093] Figure 11 shows the cross-sectional electron microscope image of the perovskite layer in this embodiment, revealing an interdigitated morphological structure. In this embodiment, the interdigitation distance is 0.001-2 μm, the interdigitation height is 0.01-0.4 μm, and the perovskite layer thickness is approximately 0.54 μm.
[0094] The absorption spectrum of the perovskite layer in this embodiment is shown in Figure 12. The absorption cutoff is at 780 nm, and there is no infrared response.
[0095] Figure 11 shows a performance comparison between the self-driven perovskite photodetector and commonly used commercially available typical visible light detectors, including silicon photodiodes (Hamamatsu S1087), avalanche diodes (Sorebo APD130A2), and femtowatt detectors (Sorebo PDF10A2). The comprehensive comparison shows that the self-driven perovskite photodetector in this embodiment has parameter performance that is closer to the equilateral triangle of an ideal detector in terms of specific detectivity, response speed, dark current, and linear dynamic range of device operation.
[0096] The self-driven perovskite photodetector in this embodiment is applied to the automatic on-time and brightness adjustment system of solar streetlights. As shown in Figure 14, the self-driven perovskite detector is directly connected to the controller. By detecting the ambient light intensity, it sends different electrical signals to the controller, thereby controlling the on-time and intensity adjustment of the solar streetlights. The transient response speed of the self-driven perovskite detector is shown in Figure 15. The rise and fall times are both less than 20 ns, indicating that the electrical signal can change rapidly in real time according to the ambient light intensity, thereby intelligently controlling the on-time and brightness of the solar streetlights.
[0097] The left side of Figure 16 shows the photocurrent evolution of the self-driven interdigitated perovskite photodetector and the ordinary three-dimensional perovskite MAPbI3 in this embodiment when simulating the detection of the highest illuminance during street lamp use. After continuous testing for over 1300 hours, the photocurrent of the interdigitated perovskite device did not decrease relative to its initial value, while the photocurrent of the three-dimensional perovskite MAPbI3 decreased by more than 30% after 50 hours. This data indicates that three-dimensional perovskite is difficult to meet the stability requirements of detectors in practical applications, while the stability of the interdigitated perovskite device is significantly improved compared to the three-dimensional perovskite. The right side of Figure 16 shows the fitting of the photocurrent variation curve of the interdigitated perovskite photodetector to its working lifetime. The results show that the Ttime of the interdigitated perovskite device during continuous operation... 50 Life expectancy is predicted to be 51,606 hours, which is approximately 6 years.
[0098] The above results indicate that the self-driven interdigitated perovskite detector in this embodiment can be used as a visible light photosensitive chip to achieve long-term stable visible light detection.
[0099] Example 3
[0100] The self-driven perovskite photodetector is fabricated as follows:
