Abstract The low‐toxic and environmentally friendly 2D lead‐free perovskite has made significant progress in the exploration of “green” X‐ray detectors. However, gap detection performance between them their lead‐based analogues remains a matter concern that cannot be ignored. To reduce this gap, shortening interlayer spacing to accelerate migration collection carriers is promising strategy.
