Abstract
Super long perovskite microwires (PMWs) are in a great demand in many fields such as low-loss microcables and integrated optical waveguide. Despite decades of research into PMWs, single crystal PMWs with several centimeters long have not been obtained. Here, ultralong (up to 7.6 centimeters) monoclinic crystal structure CH3NH3PbI3·DMF PMWs have been synthesized. The high-quality microwire exhibits long carrier lifetime of 1775.7 ns. The as-prepared free-standing PMWs can be integrated to any arbitrary substrate and 808 nm near-infrared photodetectors have been successfully demonstrated. The fabricated device shows a high light on/off ratio of 1.79×106 and an extremely low dark current of 2.5 fA at 1 V bias. This work provides a strategy for the solution growth of ultralong microwires.
