Recent Advances in Lead Halide Perovskites for Radiation Detectors

Research interest in lead halide perovskites has shown a spurt of growth in the last few years due to their high absorption coefficient, large carrier mobility, and long diffusion length. Besides their wide applications in solar cells, LEDs, lasers, and photodetectors, lead halide perovskites are demonstrated as excellent candidate materials for radiation detectors with comparable performance to commercial Si and CdZnTe (CZT) detectors. Herein, the essential results on perovskite semiconductor‐based radiation conductors are summarized. Furthermore, a brief outlook for the further development of lead halide perovskites‐based radiation detectors is proposed.
