Effect of Interface Modification on Mechanoluminescence-Inorganic Perovskite Impact Sensors
It is becoming increasingly important to develop innovative self-powered, low-cost, and flexible sensors with the potential for structural health monitoring (SHM) applications. The mechanoluminescence (ML)-perovskite sensor is a potential candidate that combines the light-emitting principles of mech...

| description | It is becoming increasingly important to develop innovative self-powered, low-cost, and flexible sensors with the potential for structural health monitoring (SHM) applications. The mechanoluminescence (ML)-perovskite sensor is a potential candidate that combines the light-emitting principles of mechanoluminescence with the light-absorbing properties of perovskite materials. Continuous in-situ SHM with embedded sensors necessitates long-term stability. A highly stable cesium lead bromide photodetector with a carbon-based electrode and a zinc sulfide (ZnS): copper (Cu) ML layer was described in this article. The addition of a magnesium iodide (MgI<sub>2</sub>) interfacial modifier layer between the electron transport layer (ETL) and the Perovskite interface improved the sensor’s performance. Devices with the modified structure outperformed devices without the addition of MgI<sub>2</sub> in terms of response time and impact-sensing applications. |
