Dark current is considered as one of the important parameters to suppress temporal noise and enhance sensitivity of photodetectors. This study shows the effect of active layer thickness and different interfacial layers in the suppression of leakage current. High-sensitivity (D
* > 1012 Jones) perovskite photodetectors (PPDs) are fabricated using the device structure of ITO/PEDOT: PSS/FA0.95 Cs0.05 PbI3 (dPVSK )/ electron transport layer (ETL)/BCP/Ag with noise current <1 pA Hz−½ . These PPDs have a broadband response from near-ultraviolet to near-infrared region (300–840 nm). The overall performance of the PPDs enhanced for the optimal thickness of active layer of dPVSK = 600 nm and ETL PC60 BM layer thickness of dETL = 50 nm. The total noise current of the PPD is further suppressed by replacing the ETL PC60 BM (in = 63.11 fA Hz−½ ) layer by a PC70 BM (in = 33.41 fA Hz−½ ) layer. This further improved other figures of merit for these PPDs. Comparison with published reports on PPDs is included to compare with the state-of-the-art detectors. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]- Published
