All-inorganic cesium lead halide perovskite nanocrystals for photodetector applications

Chem Commun (Camb). 2016 Feb 4;52(10):2067-70. doi: 10.1039/c5cc08643d.

Abstract

Herein, we describe simple, fast and reproducible halide ion exchange reactions in CsPbX3 (X = Cl, Br, I) nanocrystals (NCs) at room temperature. Through the simple adjustment of the halide ion concentration, the photoluminescence of these NCs can be tuned over the entire visible region (425-655 nm). Photodetector devices based on entirely inorganic CsPbI3 NCs are demonstrated for the first time. The photodetectors exhibited a good on/off photocurrent ratio of 10(5).
