Advances in Optical Imaging and Optical Communications Based on High‐Quality Halide Perovskite Photodetectors

Abstract

Metal halide perovskites are widely used in the preparation of photodetectors (PDs) due to their excellent photoelectric properties, tunable band gap, low cost, and rapid processing in solutions. Although 3D perovskite PDs exhibit exceptional performance, their practical applications are limited due to instability issues. Conversely, 2D perovskite PDs are gaining popularity due to their superior environmental stability. To produce efficient and stable perovskite‐based PDs, it is crucial to control the film formation process to achieve high‐quality perovskite films. This paper examines the impacts of perovskite film preparation process and crystallinity on the photoelectric properties of PDs and presents important observations regarding the crystallization and phase dynamics that occur during perovskite film formation. These insights have practical implications on the design and preparation of high‐performance and stable metal halide perovskite photodetectors, particularly in the domains of optical communications and imaging. They offer valuable guidance for next researchers and developers seeking to improve the functionality and marketability of photodetectors using perovskite films.
