Halide Perovskite Lateral Heterostructures for Energy Routing Based Photonic Applications

Abstract Semiconductor heterostructures hold the promise for developing novel integrated devices with on‐demand photonic and optoelectronic properties. Herein, the perovskite lateral heterostructures in forms of microplates and microwires are fabricated by precise control of two‐step atmospheric pressure chemical vapor deposition course and the unique optical properties are demonstrated for the first time. The comprehensive spectroscopic and elemental mapping characterizations reveal the core‐shell‐like configuration of the individual heterostructure, which features the fascinating energy routing nature. Taking advantage of the effective photon recycling and the energy transfer processes, the record‐low threshold (≈3.5 µJ cm⁻²) lasing and the indirect pumping induced lasers from the single micro‐heterostructure are demonstrated. Moreover, the distinctive optical waveguides with propagation length independent output spectra from the microwire heterostructure are realized. These findings represent a significant advance in developing novel and functional optoelectronic devices by engineering the perovskite heterostructure.
