In this work, a self-powered ultraviolet photodetector (UV PD) with a heterostructured design using lead-free copper(i) halide Cs3Cu2I5 microcrystals (MCs) was demonstrated. The X chromosome-shaped Cs3Cu2I5 MCs showed blue emission and exhibited high stability. By introducing a thin polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) film as interface modification, the heterostructured UV PD achieved remarkable responsivity, detectivity, on/off ratio, and response time.
Wide-bandgap lead-free copper(i) halides have attracted considerable attention in fabricating optoelectronic devices, especially for high-performance ultraviolet (UV) photodetectors (PDs). However, the metal-semiconductor-metal structures that are frequently used in the UV PDs hinder further performance improvement due to the poor separation of photo-generated carriers. In this work, we demonstrated a heterostructured self-powered UV PD using lead-free copper(i) halide Cs3Cu2I5 microcrystals (MCs) that had a curious X chromosome-shaped morphology on p-Si substrates. The X chromosome-shaped Cs3Cu2I5 MCs showed distinct blue emission at 441 nm and exhibited high stability under ambient air conditions. By introducing a thin polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) film as modification for the interface, the heterostructured UV PD showed a remarkable responsivity of 15.2 mA W-1 for an ultralow light intensity of 0.422 mu W cm(-2), a specific detectivity of 8.1 x 10(11) Jones, an on/off ratio of up to 4.14 x 10(3), and a response time of 41.43 ms/47.84 ms under 298 nm UV irradiation at zero bias. Notably, the on/off ratio was nearly 450 times higher than that of the device without X chromosome-shaped Cs3Cu2I5 MCs. The unencapsulated device exhibited extraordinary stability with no significant reduction in the photocurrent even after continuous operation for 8 hours or storage in ambient air for 60 days. Our work introduces a feasible approach that uses lead-free copper(i) halide Cs3Cu2I5 in future high-performance self-powered UV photodetection applications.
