In addition, the limited performance of film-based devices is attributed to the defect formation in the bulk film, surfaces, and grain boundaries.

description Perovskite materials have attracted significant attention as innovative and efficient X-ray detectors owing to their unique properties compared to traditional X-ray detectors.
