Miniaturized Multispectral Detector Derived from Gradient Response Units on Single MAPbX 3 Microwire

Miniaturized multispectral detectors are urgently desired given the unprecedented prosperity of smart optoelectronic chips for integrated functions including communication, imaging, scientific analysis, etc. However, multispectral detectors require complicated prism optics or interference/interferometric filters for spectral recognition, which hampers the miniaturization and their subsequent integration in photonic integrated circuits. In this work, inspired by the advance of computational imaging, optical-component-free miniaturized multispectral detector on 4 mm gradient bandgap MAPbX microwire with a diameter of 30 µm, is reported. With accurate composition engineering, halide ions in MAPbX microwire vary from Cl to I giving in the gradual variation of optical bandgap from 2.96 to 1.68 eV along axis. The sensing units on MAPbX microwire offer the response edge ranging from 450 to 790 nm with the responsivity over 20 mA W , -3dB width over 450 Hz, LDR of ≈60 dB, and a noise current less than ≈1.4 × 10 A Hz . As a result, the derived miniaturized detector achieves the function of multispectral sensing and discrimination with spectral resolution of ≈25 nm and mismatch of ≈10 nm. Finally, the proof-of-concept colorful imaging is successfully conducted with the miniaturized multispectral detector to further confirm its application in spectral recognition.
