Curved Photodetectors Based on Perovskite Microwire Arrays via In Situ Conformal Nanoimprinting

Abstract Micro/nano optoelectronic devices based on curved substrates play a significant role in the development of wearable devices, electronic skin, conformal sensors, conformal antennas, and soft robots. However, the current fabrication processes are oriented toward planar micro/nano devices, and the fabrication of such devices on curved substrates is challenging. Herein, a temperature‐gradient‐assisted nanoimprint‐based in situ micro/nano‐crystal growth method is proposed to fabricate high‐quality curved perovskite microwire crystal (MWC) arrays on curved surfaces. Based on this curved perovskite MWC array without bending‐induced defects, high‐performance curved photodetectors (responsivity = 414 A W −1 , detectivity = 1.2 × 10 14 Jones, and external quantum efficiency over 140 000%) with extraordinary stability (85% of original performance maintained for more than 2 years) are fabricated to realize a curved imaging device. These results provide insights into the application of high‐performance perovskite photodetectors in nonconformal optical systems.
