Visible Light Communication system using an organic emitter and a perovskite photodetector
Abstract
The past few years have seen a great increase in the development of Visible Light Communication systems (VLC), mainly triggered by the wide variety of situations they can be used in. These communication systems have traditionally employed inorganic light emitters and photodetectors. In this work, we present a VLC system using an organic emitter and a perovskite photodetector, both fabricated using low cost processing techniques. Perovskite devices have been widely studied as photovoltaics cells since they have achieved great efficiencies, and, in the recent years, there is also an intense research of these devices as photodetectors. In this work, we have fabricated and characterized a perovskite photodetector with layer structure ITO/PTAA/Perovskite/PCBM/ BCP/Cu, and integrated it in a visible communication system to successfully link an audio signal.
