CsPbBr3 X線検出器が過去最低の検出限界を達成(Enhanced CsPbBr3 X-ray Detectors Achieve Record-Low Detection Limits)

中国科学院合肥物質科学研究院の孟剛教授らの研究チームは、セシウム鉛ブロミド(CsPbBr₃)を用いたX線検出器の性能を大幅に向上させました。液体窒素冷却により深部欠陥を除去し、単結晶の抵抗率を100倍に高め、検出限界を0.054 nGyₐᵢᵣ·s⁻¹まで低下させました。さらに、復旦大学の方小生教授らと共同で、多結晶ウエハの粒界をパッシベーションし、イオン移動を抑制。これにより、高電界下でも安定した動作が可能となり、検出限界は9.41 nGyₐᵢᵣ·s⁻¹に達しました。この成果は、低線量で高精度なX線撮影を可能にし、特に小児や妊婦などの被ばく低減に貢献すると期待されます。

Abstract

Featuring exceptional photoelectronic properties and scalability, hot-pressing processed all-inorganic (i. e., CsPbBr3) perovskite wafers have emerged as promising candidates for direct X-ray imaging. Nonetheless, severe ion migration in CsPbBr3 wafers results in a large and drifting dark current, thereby compromising the bias-resistant stability of the X-ray detector. Herein, a solvent-free interfacial defect passivation strategy is proposed by introducing a passivator molecule, 2-bromonaphthalene, to passivate interfacial defects and suppress ion migration in CsPbBr3 wafers. Implementing this strategy effectively inhibits ion migration in CsPbBr3 wafers, as evidenced by an enhanced ion migration activation energy of 0.56 eV and a negligible dark-current drift of 4.01 × 10−8 µA cm−1 s−1 V−1, representing a 100 fold reduction in dark current drift compared to untreated CsPbBr3 wafers under a high electric field of 100 V mm−1, indicating a high bias-resistant stability. Consequently, the CsPbBr3 wafer X-ray detector achieves an impressively high sensitivity of 11090 µC Gyair−1 cm−2, a low detection limit of 9.41 nGyair s−1 under a 100 V mm−1 electric field, and high-contrast X-ray imaging capabilities, with performance comparable to that of CsPbBr3 single-crystal-based X-ray detector, highlighting the potential of interfacial defect passivation strategy for high-performance X-ray detectors.

Though CsPbBr3 single crystals (SCs) possess intriguing photoelectronic properties for x/γ-ray detection, the serious ion migration and high thermally activated carrier concentration at room temperature (RT), typically associated with defect states in CsPbBr3 crystals, result in a high dark current and drift of baseline, hindering their potential applications. In this investigation, liquid nitrogen cooling is proposed to freeze deep-level defects in CsPbBr3 SCs, thereby suppressing the ion migrations and decreasing the thermally excited carrier concentration. Utilizing photoluminescence (PL) and time-resolved PL spectra, coupled with theoretical models for photoexcitation and photoemission processes, the freezing of deep-level defects at liquid nitrogen temperature (LNT) is confirmed, which is conducive to decreasing non-radiative recombination. At LNT, the CsPbBr3 SC exhibits a higher resistivity of 4.95 × 1011 Ω cm and a higher mobility–lifetime product of 9.54 × 10−3 cm2 V−1, in contrast to the RT values of 3.86 × 109 Ω cm and 3.67 × 10−3 cm2 V−1, respectively. Furthermore, the x-ray detector at LNT exhibits a high sensitivity of 9309 μC Gyair−1 cm−2 and an impressively low detection limit of 0.054 nGy s−1, which offers a route for obtaining highly sensitive x-ray detectors for applications including ultra-low dose radiation imaging.
