Abstract Three‐dimensional (3D) organic–inorganic hybrid perovskites (OIHPs) have achieved tremendous success in direct X‐ray detection due to their high absorption coefficient and excellent carrier transport. However, owing the centrosymmetry of classic 3D structures, these reported detectors mostly require external electrical fields run, resulting bulky overall circuitry, energy consumption, operational instability. Herein, we first report unprecedented radiation photovoltage OIHP for efficient self‐driven detection. Specifically, polar MhyPbBr 3 ( 1 , Mhy=methylhydrazine) shows an intrinsic (0.47 V) large mobility‐lifetime product (1.1×10 −3 cm 2 V −1 ) under irradiation. Strikingly, physical characteristics endow with sensitive performance, showing a considerable sensitivity 220 μC Gy −2 which surpasses those most detectors. This work explores highly OIHPs, shedding light on future practical applications.
