Abstract:
Lead halide perovskites have received increasing attention recently as a candidate material in various optoelectronic areas because of their high performance as light absorbers. Herein, we report the growth of CsPbI
3 nanobelts via a solution process. A single-crystalline CsPbI
3 nanobelt with uniform morphology can be achieved by controlling the amount of PbI
2. A single-crystalline CsPbI
3 nanobelt possesses a mean width, length, and thickness of 100 nm, 5 µm, and 20 nm, respectively. In this work, photodetectors (PDs) based on individual CsPbI
3 nanobelts are constructed and found to perform well with an external quantum efficiency and responsivity of 2.39 × 10
5% and 770 A/W, respectively. The PDs also show a high detectivity of up to 3.12 × 10
12 Jones, which is at par with that of Si PDs. The PDs developed in this work exhibit great promise in various optoelectronic nanodevices.
