The detection of high-energy gamma radiation (>1 MeV) at room temperature requires large-volume semiconductor crystals with high absorption efficiency, charge transport properties, and stability. The CsPbBr perovskite is a promising candidate due to its congruent melting growth, high defect tolerance, and cost-effective fabrication. In this study, the performance of CsPbBr is evaluated as a gamma-ray detector across a wide energy range and up to 1332 keV and compare its efficacy to commercial CdZnTe (CZT) detectors of similar crystal thickness.

The radiation stability of CsPbBr3 perovskite crystals is essential for their utilization in radiation detection at room temperature. This study investigates the impact of high dose 60Co γ-ray irradiation on defect characteristics in CsPbBr3 perovskite crystals and highlights their radiation stability. An emphasis is placed on the origins of defects and mechanisms of charge transport.

Article Synopsis
  • CsPbBr and CsPbCl perovskites show potential for solar cells and radiation detection due to their stability and unique phase transition behavior.
  • CsPbBrCl crystals demonstrate a monoclinic structure with a larger unit cell volume than previously thought, with a transition temperature around 37 °C.
  • High-quality CsPbBrCl single crystals were used to make γ-ray detectors with a 7.2% energy resolution, indicating low defect densities and promising performance in detecting high-energy radiation.

Solution-processed perovskites are promising for hard X-ray and gamma-ray detection, but there are limited reports on their performance under extremely intense X-rays. Here, a solution-grown all-inorganic perovskite CsPbBr single-crystal semiconductor detector capable of operating at ultrahigh X-ray flux of 10 photons s mm is reported. High-quality solution-grown CsPbBr single crystals are fabricated into detectors with a Schottky diode structure of eutectic gallium indium/CsPbBr /Au.

The GABA receptor is a ligand-gated ion channel of the Cys-loop family that includes the nicotinic acetylcholine, 5-HT and strychnine-sensitive glycine receptors. GABA receptor-mediated inhibition within the CNS occurs by fast synaptic transmission, sustained tonic inhibition and temporally intermediate events that have been termed 'GABA, slow' [45]. GABA receptors exist as pentamers of 4TM subunits that form an intrinsic anion selective channel.
