Lead-Halide hybrid Perovskites are recently emerging as promising materials for high energy radiation detection thanks to the combination of high absorption coefficient, excellent transport properties, even in polycrystalline films, and their solution processability. Here we present Perovskite based X-ray detectors employing a perovskite-polymer composite thin film as active layer. The use of polymeric template for the perovskite growth allows a precise control of the active layer thickness and compactness, and confers to the device unconventional resistance to moisture and performances.[1] The performances of the active perovskite layer, inserted in a photodiode architecture, were studied under 40kV X-ray radiation. Remarkably, a top sensitivity of 5.5±0.2 μC Gy-1 cm-2 was measured for the device operating in passive mode (0V), coupled with exceptional stability. The samples were stored in air for 629 days tracking the performance degradation retaining 97% of the initial sensitivity.
