Abstract

One-dimensional (1D) halide perovskite materials with intrinsic high carrier mobility and long diffusion length hold great promises for high-performance optoelectronic devices, in which the passivation of the surface defects is of significance for further boosting its optoelectronic performance as well as its moisture stability. Herein, we demonstrate a simple room-temperature wet-chemical synthetic protocol for perovskite microwires with controlled morphologies and passivated surface states. This strategy allows for facile assembly of hydrophobic 1 H,1 H-perfluorooctylamine (PFA) molecules on the surface of the perovskite microwires owing to the coordination binding between the amino groups of PFA and Pb²⁺. Both steady and time-resolved photoluminescence measurements revealed that the passivation of PFA greatly benefit for the inhibition of the photogenerated carriers recombination. The constructed perovskite microwire-based photodetectors have shown increased detectivity of 4.99 × 10¹¹ jones and responsivity of 1.27 A/W (light power density of 1 mW/cm²). Moreover, the hydrophobic fluorocarbon alkyl chains endow the perovskite microwires with higher resistance toward moisture. Such coating of a water-resisting layer resulted in greatly enhanced stability of perovskite microwires under the humidity of 55 ± 5% over 30 days. We thus believe that our work is of importance for the development of 1D halide perovskite photodetectors with highly improved performance and stability.
