    Abstract

    The distinguished electronic and optical properties of lead halide perovskites (LHPs) make them good candidates for active layer in optoelectronic devices. Integrating LHPs and two-dimensional (2D) transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) provides opportunities for achieving increased performance in heterostructured LHPs/TMDs based optoelectronic devices. The electronic structures of LHPs/TMDs heterostructures, such as the band offsets and interfacial interaction, are of fundamental and technological interest. Here CsPbBr3 and MoSe2 are taken as prototypes of LHPs and 2D TMDs to investigate the band alignment and interfacial coupling between them. Our GGA-PBE and HSE06 calculations reveal an intrinsic type-II band alignment between CsPbBr3 and MoSe2. This type-II band alignment suggests that the performance of CsPbBr3-based photodetectors can be improved by incorporating MoSe2 monolayer. Furthermore, the absence of deep defect states at CsPbBr3/MoSe2 interfaces is also beneficial to the better performance of photodetectors based on CsPbBr3/MoSe2 heterostructure. This work not only offers insights into the improved performance of photodetectors based on LHPs/TMDs heterostructures but it also provides guidelines for designing high-efficiency optoelectronic devices based on LHPs/TMDs heterostructures.
