Broadband photodetection has shown a great promise for diverse applications, while the realization of plateau photoresponse from ultraviolet (UV) to near-infrared (NIR) spectral region is very challenging. Herein, we exploit photoexcited pyroelectric effect in a chiral hybrid perovskite, (N, N-dimethylcyclohexylammonium)PbBr 3 (1), serving as a new pathway to drive broadband photoactivities. It is a room-temperature pyroelectric with large polarization of ≈6.4 μC cm -2 and high pyroelectric figure-of-merits (F V =1.0×10 -2 cm 2 μC -1 and F D =7.1×10 -5 Pa -1/2 ). Strikingly, light-induced pyroelectric effect arising from spontaneous polarization is observed in 1, which cover UV (266 nm) to NIR-II (1950 nm) full spectral region. The broadband photoresponses actualized by pyroelectricity break the limit of optical band gap. As the first demonstration of photo-pyroelectricity covering UV-to-NIR spectral region in hybrid perovskites, this work paves a pathway to assemble high-performance smart devices.
