Piezo-phototronic Effect Enhanced Photodetector Based on CH3NH3PbI3 Single Crystals
2018
Piezoelectric organic–inorganic lead halide perovskites have recently attracted much attention in the field of optoelectronic devices. However, their piezoelectric properties as a possible way to modulate device performances have rarely been reported. Here, we study experimentally a photodetector based on CH3NH3PbI3(MAPbI3) single crystals, whose performance is effectively modulated via an emerging effect—the piezo-phototronic effect, which is to use the piezoelectric polarization charges to tune the optoelectronic processes at the interface. A piezoelectric coefficient of 10.81 pm/V of the CH3NH3PbI3 single crystal is obtained. Under 680 nm laser illumination with a power density of 3.641 mW/cm2 and at an external bias of 2 V, compared to the case without straining, the light current of the photodetector is enhanced by ∼120% when a 43.48 kPa compressive pressure is applied. The response speed of the photocurrent is 3 and 2 times faster than the cases without applying pressure for the light-on and light-o...
