Hybrid structures of silicon with organic-inorganic perovskites are proposed for optically controllable switching of terahertz (THz) waves over a broad spectral range from 0.2 to 2THz. A 532-nm external laser was utilized to generate photoexcited free carriers at the devices and consequentially to control the terahertz amplitude modulation, obtaining a depth of up to 68% at a laser irradiance of 1.5 W/cm(2). In addition, we compared the performances from three types of perovskite devices fabricated via different solution processing methods and suggested a stable and highly efficient THz switch based on a one-step processing. By this we demonstrated the possibility of perovskites as THz wave switching devices in addition to photovoltaics.
