Published in 2025 at "Advanced Optical Materials"

DOI: 10.1002/adom.202502667

Abstract: 2D perovskites are widely recognized as promising candidates for X‐ray detection. However, most 2D perovskites are organic‐inorganic hybrids with low equivalent atomic numbers, limiting their X‐ray absorption capacity, while all‐inorganic 2D perovskites typically exhibit orientation,… read more here.
