Advancing the Commercialization of Perovskite‐Based Radiation Detectors for High‐Resolution Imaging

Radiation detectors play an indispensable role in medical diagnostics, industrial non‐destructive inspection and national security. Recently, halide perovskites are considered as the new generation of radiation active materials due to excellent optoelectronic properties such as adjustable bandgap, high absorption coefficient, high carrier mobility and low cost. The radiation detectors based on perovskite show high sensitivity and low detection limit, contributing to excellent spatial resolution for imaging. However, the commercialization of perovskite radiation detectors for high quality imaging still faces many challenges, including ion migration in perovskite, fermi level pinning and electrochemical reaction at the interface of perovskite/electrode, and difficulties of integration with readout circuit. All the issues hinder the further improvement of device performance. This review summarizes the material forms and the optimized growth methods of perovskite for radiation imaging detectors. Further, this work focuses on challenges and improvements of the interface between perovskites and electrodes. Meanwhile, this work outlines the technical routes used to realize array detectors for radiation imaging. The comprehensive review would guide the commercialization of perovskite radiation detectors for high‐quality imaging.
