Metal-organic framework wafer enabled fast response radiation detection with ultra-low dark current

Semiconductive metal-organic frameworks(MOFs)have attracted great interest for the electronic applications.However,dark currents of present hybrid organic-inorganic materials are 1000-10,000 times higher than those of commercial inorganic detectors,leading to poor charge transportation.Here,we demonstrate a ZIF-8(Zn(mim)2,mim=2-methylimidazolate)wafer with ultra-low dark current of 1.27 pA·mm-2 under high electric fields of 322 V·mm-1.The isostatic pressing preparation process provides ZIF-8 wafers with good transmittance.Besides,the presence of redox-active metals and small spatial separation between components promotes the charge hopping.The ZIF-8-based semiconductor detector shows promising X-ray detection sensitivity of 70.82 μC·Gy-1·cm-2 with low doses exposures,contributing to superior X-ray imaging capability with a relatively high spatial resolution of 1.2 Ip·mm-1.Simultaneously,good peak discrimination with the energy resolution of~43.78%is disclosed when the detector is illuminated by uncollimated 241Am@5.48 MeV α-particles.These results provide a broad prospect of MOFs for future radiation detection applications.
