Metal halide perovskites (MHPs) have shown great potential for direct X-ray detection, but achieving high sensitivity without external bias remains challenging. Chiral-polar alternating cation intercalation (ACI)-type MHPs, with excellent optoelectronic properties and a robust chirality-induced bulk photovoltaic effect (BPVE), offer a promising platform for self-driven X-ray detection. Herein, impressive self-driven X-ray detection performance was achieved by utilizing chiral-polar 2D ACI-type perovskite single crystals of (R-PPA)PAPbBr4 ( 1R ; R-PPA = R-1-phenylpropylamine; PA = propylamine). The chiral R-PPA cations induce the crystallization of 1R in the chiral-polar space group P21, wherein its spontaneous electric polarization further induces a strong BPVE. Consequently, 1R shows remarkable radiation photovoltaics of 0.75 V, which endows its excellent self-driven X-ray detection with a high sensitivity of 417.2 mu C Gy-1 cm-2 and a low detection limit of 24.1 nGy s-1, meeting the state-of-the-art level by leveraging its intrinsic photovoltaic effect. These findings highlight the huge potential of chiral-polar ACI-type MHPs in self-driven X-ray detection applications.
