Abstract

Organic-inorganic hybrid perovskites have attracted tremendous attention owing to their fascinating optoelectronic properties. However, their poor air stability seriously hinders practical applications, which becomes more serious with thickness down to the nanoscale. Here we report a one-step vapor phase growth of HC(NH2)2PbBr3 (FAPbBr3) single-crystalline nanosheets of tunable size up to 50 μm and thickness down to 20 nm. The FAPbBr3 nanosheets demonstrate high stability for over months of exposure to air with no degradation in surface roughness and photoluminescence efficiency. Besides, the FAPbBr3 photodetectors exhibit superior overall performance as compared to previous devices based on nonlayered perovskite nanosheets, such as an ultralow dark current of 24 pA, an ultrahigh responsivity of 1033 A/W, an external quantum efficiency over 3000%, a rapid response time around 25 ms, and a high on/off ratio of 104. This work provides a strategy to tackle the challenges of hybrid perovskites toward integrated optoelectronics with requirements of nanoscale thickness, high stability, and excellent performance.
