Abstract
Development of novel materials and devices capable of ionizing radiation detection is a rapidly emerging area in both fundamental research and technology translation. Organic semiconductors and metal halide perovskite are highly promising candidates to meet the demands of modern detectors, such as low manufacturing costs and mechanical flexibility, due to their ability to be formulated into electroactive inks that can be printed into large-area devices at low cost using roll-to-roll printing technologies. While impressive radiation detection performances have been reported with these materials in the laboratory, to fully unlock their potential for flexible radiation detectors, several innovations are still required to translate the precise nanostructures required for high performance in controlled laboratory environments to devices fabricated with industrial printing techniques across large areas. In this chapter we provide an updated and abbreviated summary that accompanies our previous extensive review (Posar et al., Metal-halide perovskite semiconductors. Nie W, Iniewski K (eds), Springer, Cham, 2023) describing the key material properties of electroactive solution processible semiconductors for printable ionizing radiation detection, including techniques to form them into devices from solution, and the breakthroughs enabled by, and challenges remaining for, printable semiconductors for radiation detection.
