Physically Detachable and Operationally Stable Cs2SnI6 Photodetector Arrays Integrated with µ‐LEDs for Broadband Flexible Optical Systems

(CSI) is prepared via diluted hydriodic acid solvent-based precursor optimization during scalable hydrothermal growth. Materials characterization is performed using various elemental peak analyses and crystallographic identification. The resulting CSI exhibits long-term operating stability over 6 months, i) at elevated temperatures, ii) in ambient air, and iii) under light illumination from UV to near-infrared. More importantly, to demonstrate an intriguing class of applications up to system level, physically detachable CSI photodetector arrays (PD-arrays), integrated with micro-light-emitting-diodes (μ-LEDs) arrays, are successfully fabricated. In addition, 3 × 3 flexible CSI PDs are fully operational, even in air, and their spatial uniformity in pixels is quantitatively evaluated. The charge-transport mechanisms of the CSI PDs under light and elevated temperature are assessed via temperature-dependent characterization from 148 to 373 K, implying the involvement of 3D variable-range hopping. Multicycle evaluation of the CSI PD-arrays confirms their operational stability in AC and DC modes, demonstrating this platform's potential benefit for wireless optical interconnection in advanced Si technology.
