| contents | The organometal halide perovskites (OMHP) semi-conductors have shown recently a strong potential as radiation detectors, beside the well-known success in photovoltaics and as photo-detectors. Many studies have been published on X-rays detection, and a few studies about detection of alpha, beta-particles and protons. Less literature is present for high energy charged particles. OMHP-based devices for tracking and real-time monitoring for high energy particles may offer many advantages. OMHPs can be directly grown on pixelated electronics, even on curved substrates, without the need of complex and expensive bump-bonding procedures. Moreover, OMHPs have shown self-healing features after radiation exposure, which makes them attractive for high-flux applications. In this paper we report a device based on a thin single OMHP crystal, about 150 mum thick, directly grown on a patterned substrate through dewetting technique, able to detect high-energy charged particles in a high dynamic range of incident fluxes. A dedicated electronics circuit has been developed to match the expected time characteristics of the OMHP crystals. This is the first demonstration of thin OMHP single crystals being able to detect high energy charged particles of hundreds of MeV. |
