Tsai, Hsinhan; Nie, Wanyi

A radiation detector includes a p-i-n architecture including a p-type contact layer, an n-type contact layer, and an intrinsic layer between the p-type contact layer and the n-type contact layer. The intrinsic layer includes a thin film comprising a highly crystalline 2D layered perovskite material. The radiation detectors according to embodiments of the present disclosure generate high open circuit voltages, have good detecting photon density limits and high sensitivities, and can be self-powered.
