N2 - The instability and broad optical features of perovskites limit the full realization of their unique optoelectronic potential. In this study, a novel MAPbBr3@SWCNTs hybrid material is presented, in which methylammonium lead bromide perovskite (MAPbBr3) is successfully encapsulated in single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs), fabricated in the form of thin films. Encapsulation enables the formation of 1D perovskite structures with narrowband light-emission, confined within a protective carbon nanoshell. A thorough investigation is conducted into the hybrid material's structure, linear optical properties, ultrafast carrier dynamics, and THz conductivity. The encapsulation preserves the distinct characteristics of both MAPbBr3 and SWCNTs while introducing novel optoelectronic effects, including the tuning and spectral unification of perovskite photoluminescence (PL), as well as doping-induced modifications to SWCNT carrier relaxation dynamics. Furthermore, the observation of negative photoconductivity (NPC) response of MAPbBr3@SWCNTs thin films highlights the potential of this innovative material as a strong candidate for future energy-efficient photodetectors, optoelectronic switches, neuromorphic computing devices, photovoltaic enhancers, and flexible electronics.
