Fused solar-blind UV/VIS Bi-spectral sensing and imaging with vertically stacking ZnGa2O4/MAPbI3 structure.

Various spectral bands provide different types of information, and information enhancement could be achieved by selective fusion of different spectral bands. The fused solar-blind Ultraviolet (UV)/Visible (VIS) bi-spectral sensing and imaging can provide the precise location of UV targets in virtue of VIS background, which has been increasingly promoted. However, most reported UV/VIS bi-spectral photodetectors (PDs) only have one single channel towards a broadband spectrum of both UV and VIS light, which cannot distinguish two kinds of signals, hindering the image fusion of bi-spectral signals. This work demonstrates the solar-blind UV/VIS bi-spectral PD based on vertically stacking perovskite of MAPbI3 and ternary oxide of ZnGa2O4 with independent and distinct response toward solar-blind UV and VIS light in a single pixel. The PD exhibits excellent sensing properties with an Ion/Ioff ratio of >10^7 and 10^2, detectivity of >10^10 and 10^8 Jones, and response decay time of 90 μs and 16 ms for VIS and UV channels, respectively. The successful fusion of VIS and UV images suggests that our bi-spectral PD can be applied in the accurate identification of corona discharge and fire detection.&#xD.
