Key Points

  • Metal halide perovskites enable high-resolution direct X-ray detection at low radiation doses, outperforming conventional semiconductor materials in medical imaging.
  • Review of semiconductor physics highlights how high linear attenuation coefficient and long carrier diffusion length enhance performance in direct X-ray imaging detectors.
  • High carrier mobility and low exciton binding energy support advanced medical imaging detectors, though key engineering challenges must still be addressed.

Abstract

Abstract This review discusses the utilization of metal halide perovskite (MHP) materials in X‐ray direct imaging detectors for medical application. Compared to traditional semiconductors, MHP has multiple advantages including high linear attenuation coefficient, low exciton binding energy, long carrier diffusion length, and high carrier mobility. These ascendancies allow for low‐dose and high‐resolution medical imaging. Apartment from a historical overview of the develop‐X‐ray direct imaging detectors and their performance indicators, this review specifically focuses on the development and innovation of X‐ray direct imaging detectors using MHP materials. The article concludes by identifying existing challenges and discussing the potential application of perovskite X‐ray direct imaging detectors in the medical industry.
