Abstract
Conventional photovoltaic (PV)-photodetectors are hard to detect fainted signals, while photomultiplication (PM)-capable devices indispensable for detecting weak light and are prone to degrade under strong light illumination and large bias, and it is urgent to realize highly efficient integrated detecting system with both PM and PV operation modes. In this work, one lead-free Cs3Cu2I5 nanocrystals with self-trapping exciton nature was introduced as interfacial layer adjacent to bulk and layer-by-layer heterojunction structure, and corresponding organic photodetectors with bias-switchable dual modes are demonstrated. The fabricated device exhibits low operating bias (0 V for PV mode and 0.8 V for PM mode), high specific detectivity (~1013 Jones), fast response speed as low as 1.59 μs, large bandwidth over 0.2 MHz and long-term operational stability last for 4 months in ambient condition. This synergy strategy also validated in different materials and device architectures, providing a convenient and scalable production process to develop highly efficient bias-switchable multi-functional organic optoelectrical applications.

Abstract
Recently, lanthanide-based 0D metal halides have attracted considerable attention for their applications in X-ray imaging, light-emitting diodes (LEDs), sensors, and photodetectors. Herein, lead-free 0D gadolinium-alloyed cesium cerium chloride (Gd3+-alloyed Cs3CeCl6) nanocrystals (NCs) are introduced as promising materials for optoelectronic application owing to their unique optical properties. The incorporation of Gd3+ in Cs3CeCl6 (CCC) NCs is proposed to increase the photoluminescence quantum yield (PLQY) from 57% to 96%, along with significantly enhanced phase and chemical stability. The structural analysis is performed by density functional theory (DFT) to confirm the effect of Gd3+ in Cs3Ce1- xGdxCl6 (CCGC) alloy system. Moreover, the CCGC NCs are applied as the active layer in UVPDs with different Gd3+ concentration. The excellent device performance is shown at 20% of Gd3+ in CCGC NCs with high detectivity (7.938 × 1011 Jones) and responsivity (0.195 A W-1) at -0.1 V at 310 nm. This study paves the way for the development of lanthanide-based metal halide NCs for next-generation UVPDs and other optoelectronic applications.

Abstract
The self-powered PVP-Co@C nanofibers/n-GaAs heterojunction photodetector (HJPD) was fabricated by electrospinning of the nanofibers onto GaAs. An excellent rectification ratio of 6.60 × 106was obtained fromI-Vmeasurements of the device in the dark. TheI-Vmeasurements of the fabricated device under 365 nm, 395 nm and 850 nm lights, as well asI-Vmeasurements in visible light depending on the light intensity, were performed. The HJPD demonstrated excellent photodetection performance in terms of a good responsivity of ∼225 mA W-1(at -1.72 V) and at zero bias, an impressive detectivity of 6.28 × 1012Jones, and a high on/off ratio of 8.38 × 105, all at 365 nm wavelength. In addition, the maximum external quantum efficiency and NPDR values were 3495% (V = -1.72 V) and 2.60 × 1010W-1(V= 0.0 V), respectively, while the minimum NEP value was ∼10-14W.Hz-1/2for 365 nm atV= 0.V volts. The HJPD also exhibited good long-term stability in air after 30 d without any encapsulation.

Abstract
Colloidal quantum dots are semiconductor nanocrystals endowed with unique optoelectronic properties. A major challenge to the field is the lack of methods for synthesizing quantum dots exhibit strong photo-response in the deep-ultraviolet (DUV) band. Here, a facile solution-processed method is presented for synthesizing ultrawide bandgap aluminium nitride quantum dots (AlN QDs) showing distinguished UV-B photoluminescence. Combined with the strong optical response in solar blind band, a solution-processed, self-powered AlN-QDs/β-Ga2O3 solar-blind photodetector is demonstrated. The photodetector is characterized with a high responsivity of 1.6 mA W-1 under 0 V bias and specific detectivity 7.60 × 10-11 Jones under 5 V bias voltage with good solar blind selectivity. Given the solution-processed capability of the devices and extraordinary properties of AlN QDs, this study anticipates the utilization of AlN QDs will open up unique opportunities for cost-effective industrial production of high-performance DUV optoelectronics for large-scale applications.

Abstract
Facet control by primary amines can bolster the optoelectronic parameters of A2BIB'IIIX6 perovskite nanocrystals (NCs) with large indirect bandgaps. The 18-C amine competitively attaches to the (222) facet of Cs2AgBiBr6 (CABB) NCs, 16-C and 14-C bind to (400) and (440), and 12-C binds to (400). The NCs with only the (400) facet decrease the bandgap and exciton binding energy by 0.26 eV and 15 meV, respectively.

Abstract
Lead-free low-dimensional copper-based metal halides are promising luminescent materials for broadband LEDs owing to their broad self-trapped exciton (STE) emission. However, recently, in 1D CsCu2I3, a discrepancy between their electroluminescence (EL) and photoluminescence (PL) has been observed. As a result, the overall output color from LEDs is significantly different than the anticipated emission. To unveil the origin of this discrepancy, here, we provide comprehensive analyses and show that the shift in the EL is caused neither by any structural/optical interactions between CsCu2I3 and electron transport layers (ETL) nor by the degradation of 1D CsCu2I3. Instead, it depends on the carrier imbalance on CsCu2I3, mainly due to the difference in the electron mobility of the ETLs and the electron density on the CsCu2I3 layer. By varying the ETLs, different colored 1D CsCu2I3 LEDs with peaks at 556, 590, and 647 nm are fabricated, and a maximum luminance of over 2000 cd/m2 is achieved for a 556 nm LED. Further, by limiting the electron mobility and injection to 1D CsCu2I3 using an insulating LiF layer at the CsCu2I3/ETL interface, more red-shifted LEDs are achieved confirming the critical role of electron density on the EL characteristics of 1D CsCu2I3.

Abstract
In this study, a highly crystalline and transparent indium-tin-oxide (ITO) thin film was prepared on a quartz substrate via RF sputtering to fabricate an efficient bottom-to-top illuminated electrode for an ultraviolet C (UVC) photodetector. Accordingly, the 26.6 nm thick ITO thin film, which was deposited using the sputtering method followed by post-annealing treatment, exhibited good transparency to deep-UV spectra (67% at a wavelength of 254 nm), along with high electrical conductivity (11.3 S/cm). Under 254 nm UVC illumination, the lead-halide-perovskite-based photodetector developed on the prepared ITO electrode in a vertical structure exhibited an excellent on/off ratio of 1.05 × 104, a superb responsivity of 250.98 mA/W, and a high specific detectivity of 4.71 × 1012 Jones without external energy consumption. This study indicates that post-annealed ITO ultrathin films can be used as electrodes that satisfy both the electrical conductivity and deep-UV transparency requirements for high-performance bottom-illuminated optoelectronic devices, particularly for use in UVC photodetectors.

Abstract
Recently, the newly-emerging lead-free metal-halide materials with less toxicity and superior optoelectronic properties have received wide attention as the safer and potentially more robust alternatives to lead-based perovskite counterparts. Among them, ternary copper halides (TCHs) have become a vital group due to their unique features, including abundant structural diversity, ease of synthesis, unprecedented optoelectronic properties, high abundance, and low cost. Although the recent efforts in this field have made certain progresses, some scientific and technological issues still remain unresolved. Herein, a comprehensive and up-to-date overview of recent progress on the fundamental characteristics of TCH materials and their versatile applications is presented, which contains topics such as: i) crystal and electronic structure features and synthesis strategies; ii) mechanisms of self-trapped excitons, luminescence regulation, and environmental stability; and iii) their burgeoning optoelectronic devices of phosphor-converted white light-emitting diodes (WLEDs), electroluminescent LEDs, anti-counterfeiting, X-ray scintillators, photodetectors, sensors, and memristors. Finally, the current challenges together with future perspectives on the development of TCH materials and applications are also critically described, which is considered to be critical for accelerating the commercialization of these rapidly evolving technologies.

Abstract
Ternary copper halides have become promising materials for UV photodetection due to their stability and eco-friendliness. However, the uncontrollable crystallization induces high-concentration defects in these films, inherently limiting further improvement in device performance. Herein, we reveal the antisolvent-assisted crystallization kinetics mechanism of CsCu2I3 during the film-forming process. The nucleation rate is manipulated by adjusting precursor supersaturation using different antisolvents, resulting in decreased density and preferential orientation of the nuclei within the wet film. Subsequent annealing leads to a homogeneous and low-defect CsCu2I3 film with 40-μm-scale spherulites. A resulting visible-blind ultraviolet photodetector exhibits a responsivity of 8.73 A W-1, a specific detectivity of 5.28 × 1012 jones, and a response speed of 1.12 ms. The unencapsulated photodetector shows negligible degradation of responsivity in ambient air (∼70% humidity) for one month. Moreover, the flexible device with a responsivity of 420.2 mA W-1 and a detectivity of 1.18 × 1012 jones also shows excellent bending stability.

Abstract
We report a new hybrid organic-inorganic Cu(I) halide, (TMS)3Cu2I5 (TMS = trimethylsulfonium), which demonstrates high efficiency and stable yellow light emission with a photoluminescence quantum yield (PLQY) over 25%. The zero-dimensional crystal structure of the compound is comprised of isolated face-sharing photoactive [Cu2I5]3- tetrahedral dimers surrounded by TMS+ cations. This promotes strong quantum confinement and electron-phonon coupling, leading to a highly efficient emission from self-trapped excitons. The hybrid structure ensures prolonged stability and nonblue emission compared to unstable blue emission from all-inorganic copper(I) halides. Substitution of Cu with Ag leads to (TMS)AgI2, which has a one-dimensional chain structure made of edge-sharing tetrahedra, with weak light emission properties. Improved stability and highly efficient yellow emission of (TMS)3Cu2I5 make it a candidate for practical applications. This has been demonstrated through utilization of (TMS)3Cu2I5 in white light-emitting diode with a high Color Rendering Index value of 82 and its use as a new luminescent agent for visualization of in-depth latent fingerprint features. This work illuminates a new direction in designing multifunctional nontoxic hybrid metal halides.

Blue-emitting Cs3Cu2I5 has attracted attention owing to its near-unity PL quantum yield and applications in DUV photodetectors and scintillators. Its PL properties originate from the unique local structure around the luminescent center, the [Cu2I5]3- polyhedron iodocuprate anion consisting of the edge-shared CuI3 triangle and the CuI4 tetrahedron dimer, which is isolated by Cs+ ions. We found that solid-state reactions between CsI and CuI occur near room temperature (RT) to form Cs3Cu2I5 and/or CsCu2I3 phases. High-quality thin films of these phases were obtained by the sequential deposition of CuI and CsI by thermal evaporation. We elucidated that the formation of interstitial Cu+ and the antisite of I- at the Cs+ site in the CsI crystal through Cu+ and I- diffusion results in the RT synthesis of Cs3Cu2I5. The unique structure formation of the luminescent center was revealed using a model based on the low packing density of the CsCl-type crystal structure, similar sizes of Cs+ and I- ions, and the high diffusivity of Cu+. The self-aligned patterning of the luminous regions on thin films was demonstrated.

Abstract
Hybrid halocuprates(I) are nowadays the subject of intensive studies as promising materials for various optoelectronic applications. This class of materials is characterized by wide structural diversity enabled by a great variety in the size and shape of organic cations. Therefore, the study of composition-structure-property relationships is a key step for the rational design of new halocuprate materials with desired properties. In this paper, we comprehensively studied MABr/CuBr and FABr/CuBr systems (MA+ = methylammonium and FA+ = formamidinium) and established the existence of five novel phases (namely, MACu2Br3, FA2[Cu4Br6], MACuBr2, FACuBr2, and FA3CuBr4) related to four different structural types and three distinct A+ : Cu+ stoichiometries (A+ = MA+/FA+). The optical properties of the discovered phases are studied by absorption and low-temperature photoluminescence spectroscopy. Based on a crystal-chemical analysis, we explained a unique structural diversity of the MA- and FA-based bromocuprates, as well as revealed new structure-property relationships.

Abstract
A Ag:AZO electrode was used as an electrode for a self-powered solar-blind ultraviolet photodetector based on a Ag2O/β-Ga2O3 heterojunction. The Ag:AZO electrode was fabricated by co-sputtering Ag and AZO heterogeneous targets using the structural characteristics of a Facing Targets Sputtering (FTS) system with two-facing targets, and the electrical, crystallographic, structural, and optical properties of the fabricated thin film were evaluated. A photodetector was fabricated and evaluated based on the research results that the surface roughness of the electrode can reduce the light energy loss by reducing the scattering and reflectance of incident light energy and improving the trapping phenomenon between interfaces. The thickness of the electrodes was varied from 20 nm to 50 nm depending on the sputtering time. The optoelectronic properties were measured under 254 nm UV-C light, the on/off ratio of the 20 nm Ag:AZO electrode with the lowest surface roughness was 2.01 × 108, and the responsivity and detectivity were 56 mA/W and 6.99 × 1011 Jones, respectively. The Ag2O/β-Ga2O3-based solar-blind photodetector with a newly fabricated top electrode exhibited improved response with self-powered characteristics.

Abstract
Cesium copper halide perovskite is one of the promising materials for solar-blind light detection. However, most of the cesium copper halide perovskite-based photodetectors (PDs) are focused on ultraviolet A detection and realized on the rigid substrate in the single device configuration. Here, a flexible solar-blind PDs array (10 × 10 pixels) based on the CsCu2 I3 film patterns for ultraweak light sensing and light distribution imaging is reported. Large-scale CsCu2 I3 film arrays are synthesized with various shapes and uniform dimensions through a simple vacuum-heating-assisted solution method. Benefiting from excellent air stability and superior resistance to the photodegrading of the CsCu2 I3 film, the array device exhibits long-term stable photoswitching behavior for 8 h and ultralow light detection capability to resolve the light intensity of 6.1 nW cm-2 with a high responsivity of 62 A W-1 , and the array device can acquire clear images of "G", "X", and "U" showing the input light distribution. Moreover, the flame detection and warning system based on a curved solar-blind PDs array is demonstrated, which can be used for multi-flame monitoring and locating. These results can encourage potential applications of the CsCu2 I3 film-based PDs array in the field of optical communication and environment monitoring.

Abstract
Weak-light detection technology is widely used in various fields, including industry, high-energy physics, precision analysis, and reflection imaging. Metal-semiconductor-metal (MSM) photodetectors demonstrate high detectivity and high response speed and are one of the suitable structures for the preparation of weak-light detectors. However, traditional MSM photodetectors tend to exhibit high dark currents, which are not conducive to performance improvement. Here, a MXene-Cs3Bi2I9-MXene weak-light detector is proposed. Based on the MXene-Cs3Bi2I9 Schottky junctions, the dark current is reduced by 2 orders of magnitude and the responsivity is significantly improved compared with the traditional Cr/Au-Cs3Bi2I9-Cr/Au MSM photodetector. The device demonstrates excellent photodetection capacity with a photoresponsivity of 6.45 A W-1, a specific detectivity of 9.45 × 1011 Jones, and a fast response speed of 0.27/2.32 ms. Especially, the device yielded a superior weak-light detectable limit of 10.66 nW cm-2 and demonstrated excellent optical communication capability. Moreover, such a flexible device shows little degradation in photodetection performance after extreme bending for 4500 cycles, proving remarkable bending endurance and flexibility. The obtained results highlight the great potential of such Cs3Bi2I9/MXene devices as a stable and environmentally friendly candidate for weak-light detection.

Abstract
CsPbBr3-Pb4S3Br2 Janus nanocrystals (NCs) are the only nanomaterial where the epitaxial structure of perovskite and chalcogenide materials has been realized at the nanoscale, but their exciton dynamics mechanism has not yet been thoroughly investigated or applied in photodetection applications. This work reports an attractive device performance of perovskite photoconductors based on epitaxial CsPbBr3-Pb4S3Br2 Janus NCs, as well as the carrier relaxation and transfer mechanism of the heterojunction. By a combination of transient optical absorption and quantum dynamics simulation, it is demonstrated that the photogenerated holes on CsPbBr3 can be successfully extracted by Pb4S3Br2, while the hole transfer proceeds about three times faster than energy loss and remains "hot" for about 300 fs. This feature has favorable effects on long-range charge separation and transport; therefore, the Janus NCs photoconductors exhibit an exceptional responsivity of 34.0 A W-1 and specific detectivity of 1.26 × 1014 Jones.

Abstract
High-quality CsCu2X3 and Cs3Cu2X5 (X = Cl, Br, I) nanocrystals (NCs) exhibit excellent optoelectronic, physical, and chemical properties for detection of UV radiation due to large carrier mobility and lifetime, and heavy atoms. The nanocrystal materials can be prepared via a low-cost and simple solid-state synthesis. However, poor reproducibility and complex synthesis methods of obtaining perovskite NC thin films represent a drawback for the fabrication of the commercial photoelectric device. To address these issues, we develop highly stable CsCu2X3 and Cs3Cu2X5 NC materials using a facile solid-state reaction method for the scale-up production of halogen lead-free perovskites. We suggest a distinctive way to design a series of nanocrystalline perovskites using short-term synthesis and study the mechanism of perovskite formation using thermal solid-state synthesis. These all-inorganic and lead-free CsCu2X3 and Cs3Cu2X5 exhibit large photoluminescence quantum yields (PLQYs) up to 95.2%. Moreover, flexible paper photodetectors based on this series of lead-free perovskites show strong photoselectivity and bending stability at 254 nm, 365 nm, and 405 nm wavelengths. High-quality responses with a responsivity of 1.1 × 10-3 A W-1 and detectivity of 2.71 × 109 jones under UV illumination (10 μW cm-2) at a bias voltage of 5 mV are demonstrated. These results open prospects for designing photodetectors, LEDs, and other photosensitive devices.

Abstract
Copper-based halide perovskites have shown great potential in lighting and photodetection due to their excellent photoelectric properties, good stability and lead-free nature. However, as an important piece of copper-based perovskites, the synthesis and application of RbCu2I3have never been reported. Here, we demonstrate the synthesis of high-quality RbCu2I3microwires (MWs) by a fast-cooling hot saturated solution method. The prepared MWs exhibit an orthorhombic structure with a smooth surface. Optical measurements show the RbCu2I3MWs have a sharp ultraviolet absorption edge with 3.63 eV optical band gap and ultra-large stokes shift (300 nm) in photoluminescence. The subsequent photodetector based on a single RbCu2I3MW shows excellent ultraviolet detection performance. Under the 340 nm illumination, the device shows a specific detectivity of 5.0 × 109Jones and a responsivity of 380 mA·W-1. The synthesis method and physical properties of RbCu2I3could be a guide to the future optoelectronic application of the new material.

Abstract
Recent developments in the perovskite field have aimed at exploring cluster-based organic-inorganic copper(I) halides as novel luminescent materials because of their low toxicity and structural diversity. However, the poor framework stability and low dispersion in solvent constitute the key challenges to their practical applications such as luminescent inks. Herein, we report the preparation of highly luminescent inks via one-pot solution synthesis, which consisted of ionic CumIn clusters (tetrabutylammonium copper iodide) coupled with polymer polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP). Benefiting from the high-affinity PVP to stabilize and disperse the Cu-I inorganic units, the obtained hybrid nanocrystals exhibit high structural stabilitiy/photostability and good dispersion in ethanol. The characteristics of bright white light emission from inks were explored by temperature-dependent photoluminescence experiments and theoretical calculations. Attractively, the stable, highly luminescent inks show great potential for practical applications, such as anticounterfeiting and imaging identification.

Abstract
With nontoxicity and high emission efficiency, luminescent copper(I)-based halides have attracted much attention as alternatives for lead-based perovskites in photoelectric domains. However, extending the emission wavelength by doping with Mn2+ in a facile way is still a challenge. In this work, Mn2+-doped Cs3Cu2I5 microcrystals were synthesized by a mild solution method, and double emission bands from self-trapped excitons (STEs) and Mn2+ peaking at 445 and 560 nm, respectively, were observed. More importantly, further introduction of alkali metal ions (Rb+, K+, Na+) considerably promoted the luminescence performance of the Cs3Cu2I5-Mn microcrystals. The STE → Mn2+ energy transfer efficiency of the typical sample doped with Na+ increased from ∼0 to 21.30%, and the photoluminescence quantum yield (PLQY) increased from 47.32% to 62.06%. The detailed structural and optical characterizations combined with DFT calculations proved that the doping with alkali metal ions causes lattice distortion and enhances the coupling between [MnI4] and [CuI4] tetrahedra, thus promoting the energy transfer efficiency and the PLQY.

Abstract
Lead-free perovskite has attracted great attention in realizing high-performance optoelectronic devices due to their excellent atmospheric stability and nontoxic characteristics. Although a pronounced ion migration effect has been observed in this new class of materials, its potential in enhancing the overall device performance is yet to be fully explored. In this work, we studied the effect of ion migrations on the carrier transport behavior and found that the recoverable migration process can contribute to enhancing the on/off ratio in a lead-free CsCu2I3 single-crystal microrod-based photodetector. In detail, we synthesized CsCu2I3 single-crystal microrods via an in-plane self-assembly supersaturated crystallization approach. These microrods with well-defined morphologies were then used to construct ultraviolet (UV)-band photodetectors, which outperform most reported lead-free perovskite photodetectors based on individual single crystals. Simultaneously, ion migration can result in asymmetric band bending in the two-terminal device, as confirmed by surface potential profiling with Kelvin probe force microscopy (KPFM). Such an effect can be harnessed to increase the on/off ratio by almost an order of magnitude. Furthermore, the lead-free CsCu2I3 single crystal exhibits excellent thermal and air stabilities. These findings demonstrate that the CsCu2I3 single-crystal microrods can be used in stable and efficient photodetection, and the ion migration effect can potentially be utilized for improving the optoelectronic performance of lead-free devices.

Abstract
Wearable, portable, and biocompatible optoelectronic devices made of all-green and abundant materials and fabricated by low-temperature solution method are the key point in the development of next generation of intelligent optoelectronics. However, this is usually limited by the weaknesses of mono-component materials, such as non-adjustable photoresponse region, high carrier recombination rate, high signal-to-noise ratio, as well as the weak mechanical flexibility of bulk films. In this work, the Cs3Cu2I5/ZnO heterostructure flexible photodetectors were constructed by a low-temperature solution method combined with spin-coating technique. The heterostructure combines the low dark current and strong deep ultraviolet absorption of Cs3Cu2I5 quantum dots with the high carrier mobility of ZnO quantum dots as well as the efficient charge separation of the vertical p-n junction, to improve the photodetection performance. The heterostructure shows enhanced light/dark current ratio and ultraviolet-to-visible rejection ratios. Under an illumination of 280 nm light, an optical detectivity as high as 1.26 × 1011 Jones was obtained; the optical responsivity and response time are much better than those of control devices. After 300 times of 180° bending cycles, the photocurrent had no obvious change. The results demonstrate that the Cs3Cu2I5/ZnO heterostructure has great potential in wearable and portable visible-blind ultraviolet optoelectronic devices.

Abstract
In this study, a high-photoresponsivity self-powered deep ultraviolet (DUV) photodetector based on an Ag2O/β-Ga2O3 heterojunction was fabricated by depositing a p-type Ag2O thin film onto an n-type β-Ga2O3 layer. The device characteristics after post-annealing at temperatures ranging from 0 to 400 °C were investigated. Our DUV devices exhibited typical rectification characteristics. At a post-annealing temperature of 300 °C, the as-fabricated device had a low leakage current of 4.24 × 10-11 A, ideality factor of 2.08, and a barrier height of 1.12 eV. Moreover, a high photo-responsivity of 12.87 mA/W was obtained at a 100 μW/cm2 light intensity at a 254 nm wavelength at zero bias voltage, the detectivity was 2.70 × 1011 Jones, and the rise and fall time were 29.76, 46.73 ms, respectively. Based on these results, the Ag2O/β-Ga2O3 heterojunction photodetector operates without an externally applied voltage and has high responsivity, which will help in the performance improvement of ultraviolet sensing systems.

Abstract
With the rapid advances in metal halide perovskite optoelectronics, eliminating toxic lead from perovskites has been an urgent demand. However, state-of-the-art lead-free perovskite photodetectors are still challenged with issues of low photoresponse, poor stability, etc. Here, all-inorganic lead-free perovskite (Cs3Cu2I5) single crystals that possess good stability under air exposure are synthesized via a facile solid reaction method. Meanwhile, a higher photoluminescence quantum yield of 95.2% and a prolonged carrier lifetime of 1.127 μs are obtained by further optimizing the synthesis. Benefiting from the polyporous surface and hollow structure of Cu-7,7,8,8-tetracyanoquinodimethane (CuTCNQ) microtubes, more Cs3Cu2I5 nanocrystals can adhere on the innershell and outershell of CuTCNQ-15 microtubes. This unique structure contributes to the improved efficiency of utilizing incident light and promotes charge carrier generation and transportation. As a result, the hierarchical CuTCNQ/Cs3Cu2I5 (hollow microtube/nanocrystal) heterostructure phototransistor exhibits a high responsivity of 88.36 A W-1 and a large detectivity of 1.66 × 1012 Jones. The proposed lead-free perovskites and mixed-dimensional heterojunctions are promising for sensitive light detection.

Abstract
Lead-free layered double perovskite nanocrystals (NCs) with tunable visible range emission, high carrier mobility and low trap density are the need of the hour to make them applicable for optoelectronic and photovoltaic devices. Introduction of Cu2+in the high band gap Cs3Sb2Cl9lattice transforms it to the monoclinic Cs4CuSb2Cl12(CCSC) NCs having a direct band gap of 1.96 eV. The replacement of 50% Cl-by I-ions generates <5 nm Cs4CuSb2Cl6I6(C6I6) monodispersed NCs with an unchanged crystal system but with further lowering of the band gap to 1.92 eV. Thep-type C6I6 NCs exhibit emission spectra, lower trap density, appreciable hole mobility and most importantly a lower exciton binding energy of only 50.8 ± 1.3 meV. The temperature dependent photoluminescence (PL) spectra of the C6I6 NCs show a decrease in non-radiative recombination from 300 K down to 78 K. When applied as the photoactive layer in out-of-plane photodetector devices, C6I6 NC devices exhibit an appreciable responsivity of 0.67 A W-1at 5 V, detectivity of 4.55 × 108Jones (2.5 V), and fast photoresponse with rise and fall time of 126 and 94 ms, respectively. On the other hand, higher I-substitution in Cs4CuSb2Cl2I10NCs (C2I10) degrades the lattice into a mixture of monoclinic and trigonal crystal phases, which also lowers the device performance.

Abstract
The all-inorganic lead-free Cu-based halide perovskites represented by the Cs-Cu-I system, have sparked extensive interest recently due to their impressive photophysical characteristics. However, successive works on their potential application in light emission diodes and photodetectors rely on tiny polycrystals, in which the grain boundaries and defects may lead to the performance degradation of their embodied devices. Here, 2D all-inorganic perovskite Cs3 Cu2 I5 single crystals are epitaxially grown on mica substrates, with a thickness down to 10 nm. The strong blue emission of the Cs3 Cu2 I5 flakes may originate from the radiative transition of self-trapped excitons associated with a large Stocks shift and long (microsecond) decay time. Ultravioelt (UV) photodetectors based on individual Cs3 Cu2 I5 nanosheets are fabricated via a swift and etching-free dry transfer approach, which reveal a high responsivity of 3.78 A W-1 (270 nm, 5 V bias), as well as a fast response speed (τrise ≈163 ms, τdecay ≈203 ms), outperforming congeneric UV sensors based on other 2D metal halide perovskites. This work therefore sheds light on the fabrication of green optoelectronic devices based on lead-free 2D perovskites, vital for the sustainable development of photoelectric technology.

Abstract
With the surge in perovskite research, practical features for future applications are desired to be secured, but the reliability of the materials and the use of hazardous Pb are longstanding problems. Here, an air-stable Cs2 SnI6 (CSI) is prepared via diluted hydriodic acid solvent-based precursor optimization during scalable hydrothermal growth. Materials characterization is performed using various elemental peak analyses and crystallographic identification. The resulting CSI exhibits long-term operating stability over 6 months, i) at elevated temperatures, ii) in ambient air, and iii) under light illumination from UV to near-infrared. More importantly, to demonstrate an intriguing class of applications up to system level, physically detachable CSI photodetector arrays (PD-arrays), integrated with micro-light-emitting-diodes (μ-LEDs) arrays, are successfully fabricated. In addition, 3 × 3 flexible CSI PDs are fully operational, even in air, and their spatial uniformity in pixels is quantitatively evaluated. The charge-transport mechanisms of the CSI PDs under light and elevated temperature are assessed via temperature-dependent characterization from 148 to 373 K, implying the involvement of 3D variable-range hopping. Multicycle evaluation of the CSI PD-arrays confirms their operational stability in AC and DC modes, demonstrating this platform's potential benefit for wireless optical interconnection in advanced Si technology.

Abstract
2D hybrid perovskite ferroelectrics have drawn great attention in the field of photodetection, because the spontaneous polarization-induced built-in electric field can separate electron-hole pairs, and makes self-powered photodetection possible. However, most of the 2D hybrid perovskite-based photodetectors focused on the detection of visible light, and only a few reports realized the self-powered and sensitive ultraviolet (UV) detection using wide bandgap hybrid perovskites. Here, 2D ferroelectric PMA2PbCl4 monocrystalline microbelt (MMB)-based PDs are demonstrated. By using the ferro-pyro-phototronic effect, the self-powered Ag/Bi/2D PMA2PbCl4 MMB/Bi/Ag PDs show a high photoresponsivity up to 9 A/W under 320 nm laser illumination, which is much higher than those of previously reported self-powered UV PDs. Compared with responsivity induced by the photovoltaic effect, the responsivity induced by the ferro-pyro-phototronic effect is 128 times larger. The self-powered PD also shows fast response and recovery speed, with the rise time and fall time of 162 and 226 μs, respectively. More importantly, the 2D PMA2PbCl4 MMB-based PDs with Bi/Ag electrode exhibit significant stability when subjected to high humidity, continuous laser illumination, and thermal conditions. Our findings would shed light on the ferro-pyro-phototronic-effect-based devices, and provide a good method for high-performance UV detection.

Abstract
Flexible and self-powered photodetectors (PDs) have become one of the most popular topics, attracting researchers in the field of optoelectronic applications. In this study, for the first time, we demonstrate partial discharge detection in a practical environment with a prepared flexible device. Poly(vinylidene fluoride) (PVDF) is utilized as a highly transparent material in the UVC region, to create a flexible substrate with the antihumidity property. A detector that uses a mixed-halide perovskite (FAPbI3)1-x(MAPbBr3)x as the photoactive material is constructed in a vertical structure on the as-prepared hydrophobic PVDF substrate. The fabricated device exhibits good performance with a fast response speed (trise = 82 ms, tfall = 64 ms) and a high detectivity of 7.21 × 1010 Jones at zero bias under 254 nm UV illumination, along with superior mechanical flexibility at various bending angles. Additionally, the air-exposure stability and reproducibility of the as-prepared device exhibit almost the original performance after 6 weeks of storage. For practical applications, we demonstrate a facile and sensitive detection for UVC leakage from a germicidal lamp and simulated a partial discharge system using our PD without energy consumption. These results indicate that this new approach may be useful and convenient for the detection of the partial discharge as well as for several practical applications.

Abstract
The broad emission and high photoluminescence quantum yield of self-trapped exciton (STE) radiative recombination emitters make them an ideal solution for single-substrate, white, solid-state lighting sources. Unlike impurities and defects in semiconductors, the formation of STEs requires a lattice distortion, along with strong electron-phonon coupling, in low electron-dimensional materials. The photoluminescence of inorganic copper(I) metal halides with low electron-dimensionality has been found to be the result of STEs. These materials were of significant interest because of their lead-free, all-inorganic structures, and high luminous efficiencies. In this paper, we summarize the luminescence characteristics of zero- and one-dimensional inorganic copper(I) metal halides with STEs to provide an overview of future research opportunities.

Abstract
Bi-based inorganic perovskites have attracted great attention in optoelectronics, as they feature similar photoelectric properties but have high stability and lead-free merits. Unfortunately, due to the high exciton binding energy and small Bohr radius, their photodetection performance still largely lags behind that of Pb-based counterparts. Herein, using a vapor-phase chloride ion-substitution strategy, Cs3Bi2Br9 photodetectors (PDs) with gradient energy band alignment were delicately modulated, contributing to a high carrier separation/collection efficiency. The optimized Bi-based perovskite ACCT (Al2O3/Cs3Bi2Br9/Cs3Bi2ClxBr9-x/TiO2) PDs exhibit outstanding performance, the ON/OFF ratio and linear dynamic range (LDR) are significantly improved by 20 and 2.6 times, respectively. Significantly, we further demonstrate the high-SNR (signal-to-noise ratio) UV imaging based on the optimized device, which shows 21.887 dB higher than that of the pristine device. Finally, the vapor-phase anion-exchange modified perovskite PDs show long-term stability and high UV resistance. Vapor-phase ion-substitution is a promising approach for the synergistic effect of matched energy band alignment and interface passivation, which can be applied to other perovskite-based optoelectronic devices.

Abstract
Recently, newly emerging halide perovskites have aroused intensive attention in photoelectric fields in virtue of their good properties, such as well-balanced carrier transport, large light absorption coefficient, tunable band gap, and low-temperature solution processing technique. Nevertheless, their future commercial development is severely hampered by lead toxicity and instability of such materials. In this work, one-dimensional Rb2CuBr3 single-crystal microwires (MWs) were prepared by antisolvent engineering, and they were further employed as absorbers to prepare sensitive ultraviolet (UV) photodetectors. The optical band gap of Rb2CuBr3 MWs is measured to be 3.83 eV, exhibiting an excellent UV absorption. The fabricated device demonstrates a remarkable UV light detection ability with a specific detectivity of 1.23 × 1011 Jones, responsivity of 113.64 mA W-1, and response speed of 69.31/87.55 ms under light illumination of 265 nm. Meanwhile, the proposed photodetector without any encapsulation shows outstanding stability and repeatability. After storing in ambient air for 2 weeks, the light detection ability remains basically unchanged. Further, a flexible photodetector was fabricated with the same structure, which demonstrates a remarkable bending endurance. These results confirm the great potential of Rb2CuBr3 for high-performance UV photodetectors, increasing the possibility for assembly of optoelectronic systems.

Abstract
This work reports the design of a wavelength sensor composed of two identical perovskite (FA0.85 Cs0.15 PbI3 ) photodetectors (PDs) that are capable of discriminating incident wavelength in a quantitative way. Due to strong wavelength-dependent absorption coefficient, the penetration depth of the photons in the FA0.85 Cs0.15 PbI3 nanofilms increases with the increasing wavelength, leading to a gradual decrease of photo-generated current for PD1, but an increase of photocurrent in PD2, according to the theoretical simulation of Technology Computer Aided Design. This special evolution of photo-generated current as a function of wavelength facilitates the quantitative determination of the wavelength since the current ratio of both PDs monotonously decreases with the increase of wavelength from 265 to 810 nm. The average absolute error and the average relative error are estimated to be 7.6 nm and 1.68%, respectively, which are much better than other semiconductors materials-based wavelength sensors previously reported. It is believed that the present perovskite film-based wavelength sensor will have potential application in the future color/spectrum optoelectronic devices.

Abstract
This work reports a CsI stripping/insertion process that enables the reversible transformation between blue-emissive Cs3Cu2I5 and yellow-emissive CsCu2I3 upon moisture/evaporation treatment. The successful transformation can be ascribed to the unique space confinement of the SiO2 matrix and ligand-free feature of perovskite nanocrystals, which can be a good candidate for anti-counterfeiting.

Abstract
Hybrid perovskite photodetectors generally exhibit brilliant performance for photodetecting in the visible spectrum but poor detectability in the solar-blind ultraviolet (UV) region. To break through the bottleneck, we demonstrate a novel strategy to broaden the spectral response of perovskite photodetectors to the solar-blind UV region through phosphor encapsulation. The high photoluminescence quantum yield trichromatic phosphor capping layer achieves an extended spectral response to the solar-blind UV region through effectively down-converting the incident UV light into visible light. In addition, an external quantum efficiency of up to 12.13%@265 nm is achieved without bias voltage, while the initial value is near zero. The corresponding spectral responsivity and detectivity are 0.0269 A/W and 7.52 × 1011 Jones, respectively. Thus, the photodetectors show a high photocurrent and on/off ratio, increasing by roughly 2 orders of magnitude. Moreover, the photodetectors exhibit a large linear dynamic range of 105 dB, fast response times of 50.16/51.99 μs, and excellent stability. The practical applications for flame detection and UV-based communication are further explored. This work provides a new way to achieve UV light detection based on perovskite photodetectors. Perhaps, it may also be a promising alternative for wide-band gap semiconductors to realize the urgent pursuit of UV detection.

Abstract
Ga2O3 is a popular material for research on solar-blind ultraviolet detectors. However, its absorption cutoff edge is 253 nm, which is not an ideal cutoff edge of 280 nm. In this work, by adjusting the ratio of In/Ga elements in the films, a high-quality (In0.11Ga0.89)2O3 film with an absorption cutoff edge of 280 nm was obtained, which owns a uniform surface and preferred orientation. On this basis, a solar-blind ultraviolet photovoltaic detector was constructed based on the Pt/(In0.11Ga0.89)2O3/n-Si heterojunction. When the device is exposed to 254 nm UV light, its open-circuit voltage (VOC) can reach 354 mV. Under 0 V bias, the device has a responsivity of 0.48 mA/W with a rise time of 0.47 s and a decay time of 0.37 s; under -7 V bias, the device achieves a responsivity of 16.96 mA/W with a rise time of 0.17 s and a decay time of 0.33 s. The spectral response characteristics of the device show that it has a selective response to solar-blind ultraviolet light (cutoff wavelength is 280 nm) with a rejection ratio (R254 nm/R310 nm), which is greater by more than two orders of magnitude. This work provides a good reference for adjusting the band gap of Ga2O3-based films and broadening their application fields.

Abstract
Lead-based halide perovskites (APbX3, where A = organic or inorganic cation, X = Cl, Br, I) are suitable materials for many optoelectronic devices due to their many attractive properties. However, the concern of lead toxicity and the poor ambient and operational stability of the organic cation group greatly limit their practical utilization. Therefore, there has recently been great interest in lead-free, environment-friendly all-inorganic halide perovskites (IHPs). Sb and Sn are common species suggested to replace Pb for Pb-free IHPs. However, the large difference in the melting points of the precursor materials (e.g., CsBr and SbBr3 precursors for Cs3Sb2Br9) makes the chemical vapor deposition (CVD) growth of high-quality Pb-free IHPs a very challenging task. In this work, we developed a two-step CVD method to overcome this challenge and successfully synthesized Pb-free Cs3Sb2Br9 perovskite microplates. Cs3Sb2Br9 microplates ∼25 μm in size with the exciton absorption peak at ∼2.8 eV and a band gap of ∼2.85 eV were obtained. The microplates have a smooth hexagonal morphology and show a large Stokes shift of ∼450 meV and exciton binding energy of ∼200 meV. To demonstrate the applications of these microplates in optoelectronics, simple photoconductive devices were fabricated. These photodetectors exhibit a current on/off ratio of 2.36 × 102, a responsivity of 36.9 mA/W, and a detectivity of 1.0 × 1010 Jones with a fast response of rise and decay time of 61.5 and 24 ms, respectively, upon 450 nm photon irradiation. Finally, the Cs3Sb2Br9 microplates also show good stability in ambient air without encapsulation. These results demonstrate that the 2-step CVD process is an effective approach to synthesize high-quality all-inorganic lead-free Cs3Sb2Br9 perovskite microplates that have the potential for future high-performance optoelectronic device applications.

Abstract
The present work reports highly efficient flexible and reabsorption-free scintillators based on two zero-dimensional (0D) organic copper halides (TBA)CuX2 (TBA = tetrabutylammonium cation; X = Cl, Br). The (TBA)CuX2 exhibit highly luminescent green and sky-blue emissions peaked at 510 and 498 nm, with large Stokes shifts of 224 and 209 nm and high photoluminescence quantum yields (PLQYs) of 92.8% and 80.5% at room temperature for (TBA)CuCl2 and (TBA)CuBr2 single crystals (SCs), respectively. Interestingly, above room temperature, their PLQYs increase with temperature and reach near unity at 320 and 345 K for (TBA)CuCl2 and (TBA)CuBr2, respectively. The excellent properties originate from self-trapped excitons (STEs) in individual [CuX2]- quantum rods, which is demonstrated by the temperature-dependent PL, ultrafast transient absorption (TA) combined with density functional theory (DFT) calculations. The (TBA)CuX2 scintillators show bright radioluminescence (RL), impressive linear response to dose rate in a broad range, and high light yields. Their potential application in X-ray imaging is demonstrated by using (TBA)CuX2 composite scintillation screens. Importantly, flexible scintillators are demonstrated to be superior than flat ones for imaging nonplanar objects by conformally coating, which produce accurate images with negligible distortion.

Abstract
State-of-the-art photodetectors which apply hybrid perovskite materials have emerged as powerful candidates for next-generation light sensing. Among them, lead-based ones are the most popular beyond doubt on account of their unique and superior optoelectronic properties. Nevertheless, trade-off toward commercialization exists between nontoxicity and high performance, with the poor stability of lead-based perovskites, indicating that it is indispensable to substitute lead with nontoxic element meanwhile bringing about a comparable figure of merit of photodetectors and relatively long-term stability. Herein, recent advances in lead-free perovskite photodetectors are reviewed, analyzing the principle while designing new materials and highlighting some remarkable progress, which are comparable, even superior, to lead-based photodetectors. Furthermore, their potential strategy in optical communication, image sensing, narrowband photodetection, etc., is examined and a perspective on developing new materials and photodetectors with superior properties for more practical applications is provided.

Abstract
Recently, metal-halide perovskites have emerged as promising materials for photodetector (PD) applications owing to their superior optoelectronic properties, such as ambipolar charge transport characteristics, high carrier mobility, and so on. In the past few years, rapid progress in lead-based perovskite PDs has been witnessed. However, the critical environmental instability and lead-toxicity seriously hinder their further applications and commercialization. Therefore, searching for environmentally stable and lead-free halide perovskites (LFHPs) to address the above hurdles is certainly a worthwhile subject. In this review, we present a comprehensive overview of currently explored LFHPs with an emphasis on their crystal structures, optoelectronic properties, synthesis and modification methods, as well as the PD applications. LFHPs are classified into four categories according to the replacement strategies of Pb2+, including AB(ii)X3, A3B(iii)2X9, A2B(i)B(iii)'X6, and newly-emerging perovskite derivatives. Then, we give a demonstration of the preliminary achievements and limitations in environment-friendly PDs based on such LFHPs and perovskite derivatives, and also discuss their applications in biological synapses, imaging, and X-ray detection. With the perspective of their properties and current challenges, we provide an outlook for future directions in this rapidly evolving field to achieve high-quality LFHPs and perovskite derivatives for a broader range of fundamental research and practical applications.

Abstract
Calcium stannate (CaSnO3) is an inorganic perovskite material with an ultrawide bandgap (4.2-4.4 eV) that is associated with its unique structural characteristics. Owing to its remarkable optical and electric properties and high physical and chemical stability, it has recently drawn significant interest for various applications such as photocatalysts for the degradation of organic compounds and hydrogen production under UV radiation, gas sensors, and thermally stable capacitors. In this study, we demonstrate a self-powered deep-UV (DUV) p-i-n photodetector consisting of CaSnO3 thin film as an efficient DUV absorber via a low-temperature solution process. The physical, optical, and electrical properties of the as-synthesized CaSnO3 are characterized by X-ray diffraction, Raman spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy, high-resolution transmission electron microscopy, ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy, photoluminescence spectroscopy, space charge limited current, and four-point probe measurements. As a key component in a p-i-n DUV photodetector, the thickness of the CaSnO3 absorber layer and operating bias are optimized to enhance charge carrier transport, light absorption, and signal-to-noise ratio. As a result, the optimized device shows a high performance at zero bias under 254 nm UV illumination: with a specific detectivity of 1.56 × 1010 Jones, fast rise/fall time of 80/70 ms, and high 254:365 nm photocurrent rejection ratio of 5.5 along with a stable photoresponse during 100 continuous cycles initially as well as after 1 month of storage. Accordingly, this study suggests that a novel CaSnO3-based photodiode prepared via a solution process can be employed for many practical DUV-detection applications.
