Post‐Treatment of CH3NH3PbI3/PbI2 Composite Films with Methylamine to Realize High‐Performance Photoconductor Devices.

Organometallic halide perovskites have attracted great research interest as light‐active materials for use in optoelectronics. Here, we report a high‐performance photoconductor based on a methylammonium lead iodide (MAPbI3) film that was prepared from a methylamine‐treated MAPbI3/PbI2 perovskite film. An ultrahigh responsivity of 3.6 A W−1 and detectivity of 5.4×1012 Jones were obtained for the film under 0.5 mW cm−2 white‐light illumination. In addition, under 420 nm light irradiation, the film exhibited its highest responsivity and detectivity of 30 A W−1 and 2.4×1014 Jones, respectively. The excellent photo‐response performance results from the improved electronic quality and suppressed nonradiative recombination channels of the treated perovskite thin film. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
