Abstract

Highly ordered perovskite nanowire (PNW) arrays are important building blocks for potential application in integrated optoelectronic devices due to their unique properties. Herein, a recordable digital versatile disk-assisted nanochannel-confined growth (NCG) strategy was developed for large-scale growth of different kinds of PNW arrays with preferentially crystallographic orientation on various substrates. Photodetector constructed from MAPbI3 NW arrays exhibits prominent photoresponse properties with a responsivity of 20.56 A W−1 and specific detectivity of 4.73 × 1012 Jones, respectively. What is more, the photodetector can function as a polarization-sensitive photodetector due to the crystallographic orientation of the one-dimensional PNW arrays, with a polarization ratio of 2.2. The proposed NCG strategy provides a cost-efficient and effective method for the fabrication of high-quality PNW arrays with potential applications in future integrated devices and systems.

摘要

有序排列、取向生长的钙钛矿纳米线阵列的合成通常需要复杂的工艺条件和精密的仪器设备, 这不利于其广泛应用. 本文提出了一种纳米通道限域生长的方法来制备钙钛矿纳米线阵列. 利用场发射扫描电子显微镜、原子力显微镜和X射线衍射等分析手段, 表征了纳米线阵列的形貌和晶体结构, 证明了该方法可用于在各种衬底上制备大面积的具有取向生长特点的不同种类的钙钛矿纳米线阵列. 基于MAPbI3纳米线阵列所制备的光电探测器光响应 优异, 响应度和比探测率分别为20.56 A W−1和4.73 × 1012 Jones.此外, 由于所制备的一维钙钛矿纳米线结构的各向异性, 该光电探测器还实现了对于偏振光的探测, 其偏振比为2.2.
