Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of photoelectric detectors, and in particular relates to a lead-free perovskite microstrip / silicon heterojunction photoelectric detector and a preparation method thereof. Background Art

[0002] Photodetectors can convert optical signals into electrical signals, which has important application value in industrial and scientific applications, such as optical remote sensing, space communication, target detection and autonomous driving. In recent years, metal halide perovskite materials have attracted extensive attention in the field of photodetectors due to their long electron-hole diffusion length, high mobility and excellent photovoltaic energy conversion ability. However, the optical band gap of perovskite limits its application in the field of wide-spectrum detection, especially in the near-infrared band. In addition, the response speed of perovskite photoelectric devices is usually limited. Combining perovskite materials with traditional inorganic optoelectronic semiconductor materials with mature processing technology to form heterojunction photodetectors is a promising approach. In the near-infrared light band, crystalline silicon-based photodetectors occupy the main market share, while silicon has a narrow band gap and has good compatibility with perovskite materials. To this end, considering the potential advantages of combining perovskite with silicon, perovskite can be integrated on silicon to achieve wide-spectrum and high-speed detection.

[0003] There have been reports of related research on integrating single-crystal halide perovskites on silicon wafers, such as existing heterojunction detectors such as CH3NH3PbBr3 / Si and MAPbBr3 / Si. However, due to the presence of organic cations and lead ions in the structure, the photoelectric detection device is unstable, resulting in the leakage of lead elements and facing environmental pollution and other problems. In addition, high integration density is one of the prerequisites for the next generation of electronic and optoelectronic systems, in which device units are usually arranged horizontally. Growing semiconductor nanobelts in the substrate plane can achieve large-scale horizontal distribution of one-dimensional structures, which is conducive to the efficient integration of high-density functional devices. To solve the above problems, the present invention proposes a lead-free perovskite microstrip / silicon heterojunction photodetector and a preparation method thereof. The one-dimensional lead-free perovskite CsAg2I3 is directly integrated on a silicon wafer by a spatially confined growth method to achieve wide spectrum and high-speed detection. In addition, the heterostructure proposed in the present invention has low preparation cost, simple process, and green environmental protection, and has great potential in promotion and application. Summary of the invention

[0004] In response to the improvement needs reported in existing research, the present invention improves the photoelectric detection performance by directly integrating lead-free perovskite on a silicon wafer and constructing a Nn isotype heterojunction structure, thereby achieving the purpose of wide spectrum and high-speed detection.

After cooling, the n-Si substrate is peeled off with the aid of tape, and placed on a heating table for annealing to remove the remaining solvent to obtain a perovskite microstrip / silicon heterojunction structure.

[0012] 3. Electrode deposition of heterojunction devices:
