Omnidirectional photodetectors attract enormous attention due to their prominent roles in optical tracking systems and omnidirectional cameras. However, it is still a challenge for the construction of high-performance omnidirectional photodetectors where the incident light can be effectively absorbed in multiple directions and the photo-generated carriers can be effectively collected. Here, a high-performance omnidirectional self-powered photodetector based on the CsSnBr3/indium tin oxide (ITO) heterostructure film was designed and demonstrated. The as-fabricated photodetector exhibited excellent self-powered photodetection performance, showing responsivity and detectivity up to 35.1 ​mA/W and 1.82 ​× ​1010 Jones, respectively, along with the smart rise/decay response time of 4 ​ms/9 ​ms. Benefitting from the excellent photoelectric properties of the CsSnBr3 film as well as the ability of the CsSnBr3/ITO heterostructure to efficiently separate and collect photo-generated carriers, the as-fabricated photodetector also exhibited excellent omnidirectional self-powered photodetection performance. All the results have certified that this work finds an efficient way to realize high-performance omnidirectional self-powered photodetectors.
