- Chiral perovskites are emerging semiconducting materials with broken symmetry that can selectively absorb and emit circularly polarized light. However, most of the chiral perovskites are typically low-dimensional structures with limited electrical conductivity and their light absorption occurs in the UV region. In this work, we find doping 2,3,5,6-Tetrafluoro-7,7,8,8-tetracyanoquinodimethane (F4TCNQ) in the chiral perovskite matrix can improve the electrical conductivity with an addition of visible light absorption through the emerging charge-transfer electronic states. The new absorption feature exhibits strong circular dichroism adapted from the chiral matrix, which is indicative of a chirality transfer from the host to the guest via an electronic coupling. The charge transfer state is validated by transient absorption spectroscopy and theory modeling. Quantum-chemical modeling identifies a strong wave function overlap between an electron and a hole of the guest-host in a closely packed crystal configuration forming the charge-transfer absorption state. We then integrate the doped chiral perovskite film in photodetectors and demonstrate a selective detection of circularly polarized light both in the UV and visible range. Our results suggest a universal approach of introducing visible photo absorption states to the chiral matrix to broaden the optical active range and enhance the conductivity.
