Development Of Metal Halide Perovskites For Radiation Detection, Ryan Tan
Doctoral Dissertations
Metal halide perovskite (MHP) semiconductors have attracted significant interest in recent years within photovoltaic and radiation detection communities due to their inexpensive solution growths, high effective atomic number for gamma and X-ray sensing, suitable bandgap, large resistivity, and moderate mobility-lifetime products. The MHP stoichiometry can also be tuned as needed to achieve desired physical and electronic properties. Moreover, the hybrid or organometallic halide perovskite (OMHP) variants contain a large atomic fraction of hydrogen for fast neutron sensing. These qualities make MHPs an attractive low-cost option for meeting detector needs within nuclear security and imaging applications. This work presents the development …
