Long and Ultrastable All-Inorganic Single-Crystal CsPbBr3Microwires: One-Step Solution In-Plane Self-Assembly at Low Temperature and Application for High-Performance Photodetectors

As ideal building blocks for optoelectronic devices, one-dimensional (1D) single-crystal perovskite microwires (MWs) have received widespread attention due to their unique physical and chemical properties. Herein, a one-step solution in-plane self-assembly method is proposed to directly grow millimeter-long CsPbBr3 MWs with superior crystal quality at atmospheric environment. This method effectively avoids the use of toxic antisolvents. Furthermore, a MW-based photodetector is successfully fabricated, showing high photoresponsivity (20 A/W) and fast response (less than 0.3 ms). The stability of the photodetector is also confirmed by aging MW in air for 60 days, which shows a negligible change of photocurrent from 1.29 to 1.25 nA (−3 V) under the same experimental conditions. This work provides a low-cost and fast synthesis method for the preparation of single-crystal perovskite MWs and demonstrates their potential application for high-performance and stable photoelectronic device.
