Recent Progress of Plasmonic Perovskite Photodetectors

Perovskite materials have emerged as promising candidates for next-generation photodetectors (PDs) owing to their superior optoelectronic properties and compatibility with low-cost, low-temperature fabrication processes. Broad applicability of PDs spans diverse fields, including X-ray detection, wearable electronics, autonomous vehicles, artificial intelligence, imaging, optical communication, and biomedical sensing, offering advantages over conventional semiconductor PDs based on Si, Ge, InGaAs, and GaN. The integration of plasmonic nanostructures into perovskite-based devices has recently emerged as an effective strategy to enhance performance by amplifying light absorption near the perovskite layer. This review summarizes recent advances and design strategies for plasmonic-integrated perovskite photodetectors (Pe-PDs), with a particular emphasis on plasmonic nanopatterns and nanoparticles as viable approaches for solution-processable Pe-PDs.
