Enhanced optical absorption via cation doping hybrid lead iodine perovskites.

Project description:The suitable band structure is vital for perovskite solar cells, which greatly affect the high photoelectric conversion efficiency. Cation substitution is an effective approach to tune the electric structure, carrier concentration, and optical absorption of hybrid lead iodine perovskites. In this work, the electronic structures and optical properties of cation (Bi, Sn, and TI) doped tetragonal formamidinium lead iodine CH(NH2)2PbI3 (FAPbI3) are studied by first-principles calculations. For comparison, the cation-doped tetragonal methylammonium lead iodine CH3NH3PbI3 (MAPbI3) are also considered. The calculated formation energies reveal that the Sn atom is easier to dope in the tetragonal MAPbI3/FAPbI3 structure due to the small formation energy of about 0.3 eV. Besides, the band gap of Sn-doped MAPbI3/FAPbI3 is 1.30/1.40 eV, which is considerably smaller than the un-doped tetragonal MAPbI3/FAPbI3. More importantly, compare with the un-doped tetragonal MAPbI3/FAPbI3, the Sn-doped MAPbI3 and FAPbI3 have the larger optical absorption coefficient and theoretical maximum efficiency, especially for Sn-doped FAPbI3. The lower formation energy, suitable band gap and outstanding optical absorption of the Sn-doped FAPbI3 make it promising candidates for high-efficient perovskite cells.

Rotational Dynamics of Organic Cations in Formamidinium Lead Iodide Perovskites.

Project description:We report results from quasi-elastic neutron scattering studies on the rotational dynamics of formamidinium (HC[NH2]2+, FA) and methylammonium (CH3NH3+, MA) cations in FA1-xMAxPbI3 with x = 0 and 0.4 and compare it to the dynamics in MAPbI3. For FAPbI3, the FA cation dynamics evolve from nearly isotropic rotations in the high-temperature (T > 285 K) cubic phase through reorientations between preferred orientations in the intermediate-temperature tetragonal phase (140 K < T ⩽ 285 K) to an even more complex dynamics, due to a disordered arrangement of the FA cations, in the low-temperature tetragonal phase (T ⩽ 140 K). For FA0.6MA0.4PbI3, the dynamics of the respective organic cations evolve from a relatively similar behavior to FAPbI3 and MAPbI3 at room temperature to a different behavior in the lower-temperature phases where the MA cation dynamics are a factor of 50 faster as compared to those of MAPbI3. This insight suggests that tuning the MA/FA cation ratio may be a promising approach to tailoring the dynamics and, in effect, optical properties of FA1-xMAxPbI3.

Rashba splitting in organic-inorganic lead-halide perovskites revealed through two-photon absorption spectroscopy.

Project description:The Rashba splitting in hybrid organic-inorganic lead-halide perovskites (HOIP) is particularly promising and yet controversial, due to questions surrounding the presence or absence of inversion symmetry. Here we utilize two-photon absorption spectroscopy to study inversion symmetry breaking in different phases of these materials. This is an all-optical technique to observe and quantify the Rashba effect as it probes the bulk of the materials. In particular, we measure two-photon excitation spectra of the photoluminescence in 2D, 3D, and anionic mixed HOIP crystals, and show that an additional band above, but close to the optical gap is the signature of new two-photon transition channels that originate from the Rashba splitting. The inversion symmetry breaking is believed to arise from ionic impurities that induce local electric fields. The observation of the Rashba splitting in the bulk of HOIP has significant implications for the understanding of their spintronic and optoelectronic device properties.

Lead halide perovskites for photocatalytic organic synthesis.

Project description:Nature is capable of storing solar energy in chemical bonds via photosynthesis through a series of C-C, C-O and C-N bond-forming reactions starting from CO2 and light. Direct capture of solar energy for organic synthesis is a promising approach. Lead (Pb)-halide perovskite solar cells reach 24.2% power conversion efficiency, rendering perovskite a unique type material for solar energy capture. We argue that photophysical properties of perovskites already proved for photovoltaics, also should be of interest in photoredox organic synthesis. Because the key aspects of these two applications are both relying on charge separation and transfer. Here we demonstrated that perovskites nanocrystals are exceptional candidates as photocatalysts for fundamental organic reactions, for example C-C, C-N and C-O bond-formations. Stability of CsPbBr3 in organic solvents and ease-of-tuning their bandedges garner perovskite a wider scope of organic substrate activations. Our low-cost, easy-to-process, highly-efficient, air-tolerant and bandedge-tunable perovskites may bring new breakthrough in organic chemistry.

Giant photostriction in organic-inorganic lead halide perovskites.

Project description:Among the many materials investigated for next-generation photovoltaic cells, organic-inorganic lead halide perovskites have demonstrated great potential thanks to their high power conversion efficiency and solution processability. Within a short period of about 5 years, the efficiency of solar cells based on these materials has increased dramatically from 3.8 to over 20%. Despite the tremendous progress in device performance, much less is known about the underlying photophysics involving charge-orbital-lattice interactions and the role of the organic molecules in this hybrid material remains poorly understood. Here, we report a giant photostrictive response, that is, light-induced lattice change, of >1,200?p.p.m. in methylammonium lead iodide, which could be the key to understand its superior optical properties. The strong photon-lattice coupling also opens up the possibility of employing these materials in wireless opto-mechanical devices.

Microscopic (Dis)order and Dynamics of Cations in Mixed FA/MA Lead Halide Perovskites.

Project description:Recent developments in the field of high efficiency perovskite solar cells are based on stabilization of the perovskite crystal structure of FAPbI3 while preserving its excellent optoelectronic properties. Compositional engineering of, for example, MA or Br mixed into FAPbI3 results in the desired effects, but detailed knowledge of local structural features, such as local (dis)order or cation interactions of formamidinium (FA) and methylammonium (MA), is still limited. This knowledge is, however, crucial for their further development. Here, we shed light on the microscopic distribution of MA and FA in mixed perovskites MA1-x FA x PbI3 and MA0.15FA0.85PbI2.55Br0.45 by combining high-resolution double-quantum 1H solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy with state-of-the-art near-first-principles accuracy molecular dynamics (MD) simulations using machine-learning force-fields (MLFFs). We show that on a small local scale, partial MA and FA clustering takes place over the whole MA/FA compositional range. A reasonable driving force for the clustering might be an increase of the dynamical freedom of FA cations in FA-rich regions. While MA0.15FA0.85PbI2.55Br0.45 displays similar MA and FA ordering as the MA1-x FA x PbI3 systems, the average cation-cation interaction strength increased significantly in this double mixed material, indicating a restriction of the space accessible to the cations or their partial immobilization upon Br- incorporation. Our results shed light on the heterogeneities in cation composition of mixed halide perovskites, helping to exploit their full optoelectronic potential.

Conformational disorder of organic cations tunes the charge carrier mobility in two-dimensional organic-inorganic perovskites.

Project description:The chemical nature of the organic cations governs the optoelectronic properties of two-dimensional organic-inorganic perovskites. But its mechanism is not fully understood. Here, we apply femtosecond broadband sum frequency generation vibrational spectroscopy to investigate the molecular conformation of spacer organic cations in two-dimensional organic-inorganic perovskite films and establish a correlation among the conformation of the organic cations, the charge carrier mobility, and broadband emission. Our study indicates that both the mobility and broadband emission show strong dependence on the molecular conformational order of organic cations. The gauche defect and local chain distortion of organic cations are the structural origin of the in-plane mobility reduction and broad emission in two-dimensional organic-inorganic perovskites. Both of the interlayer distance and the conformational order of the organic cations affect the out-of-plane mobility. This work provides molecular-level understanding of the conformation of organic cations in optimizing the optoelectronic properties of two-dimensional organic-inorganic perovskites.

Constructing Stable and Potentially High-Performance Hybrid Organic-Inorganic Perovskites with "Unstable" Cations.

Project description:A new family of functional hybrid organic-inorganic perovskites (HOIPs) is theoretically designed based on the following chemical insights: when a proton is adhered to molecules like water or ethanol, the newly formed larger-sized cations (e.g., H5O2 +, C2H5OH2 +, and CH3SH+) entail low electron affinities mimicking superalkalis; they are conjugated acids of weak bases that cannot survive in solution, while their chemistry behavior in the HOIP frameworks, however, may be markedly different due to greatly enhanced cohesive energies of the proton, which facilitate the formation of new HOIPs. First-principles computations show that the putative formation reactions for these newly designed HOIPs typically release much more energy compared with the prevailing HOIP MAPbI3, suggesting the likelihood of facile solution-based fabrications, while the suppression of reverse formation suggests that the humidity stability may be markedly enhanced. During their formations, halide acids are unlikely to react with ethanol or methanethiol without the presence of metal halides, a condition further favoring their stability. The proposed structure of (H5O2)PbI3 may also clarify the origin of the long-speculated existence of HPbI3. Importantly, density functional theory computations suggest that many of these HOIPs possess not only direct bandgaps with values within the optimal range for solar light absorbing but also more desirable optical absorption spectra than that of MAPbI3, where their ferroelectric polarizations also benefit photovoltaics. The stability and photovoltaic efficiency may be even further improved for the newly designed two-dimensional (2D) HOIPs and 2D/3D hybrid HOIP structures.

Inorganic A-site cations improve the performance of band-edge carriers in lead halide perovskites.

Project description:In lead halide perovskites, organic A-site cations are generally introduced to fine-tune the properties. One of the questions under debate is whether organic A-site cations are essential for high-performance solar cells. In this study, we compare the band edge carrier dynamics and diffusion process in MAPbBr3 and CsPbBr3 single-crystal microplates. By transient absorption microscopy, the band-edge carrier diffusion constants are unraveled. With the replacement of inorganic A-site cations, the diffusion constant in CsPbBr3 increases almost 8 times compared to that in MAPbBr3. This work reveals that introducing inorganic A-site cations can lead to a much larger diffusion length and improve the performance of band-edge carriers.

Mixed Group 14–15 Metalates as Model Compounds for Doped Lead Halide Perovskites

Project description:Abstract Doping and alloying are valuable tools for modifying and enhancing the properties and performance of lead halide perovskites. However, the effects of heterovalent doping with Sb3+ and Bi3+ cations are still a matter of current investigation. Due to the different charge of the dopants compared to the constituting Pb2+ ions, a simultaneous creation of defects is unavoidable and the influence of these defects and the actual metal substitution become entangled. Herein, we present the first 14–15 iodido metalates, (BED)4PbE2I16 (BED=N?benzylethylenediammonium; E=Sb (1), Bi (2)), which are model compounds for doped lead iodide perovskites and display surprisingly low band gaps of 2.01 (1) and 1.88?eV (2). Quantum chemical investigations show that this stems from a good electronic match between the PbI6 and EI6 units of the compounds. Our results provide a model system for doped perovskites, but also represent the first examples of a promising new class of metal halide materials. The electronic nature of Sb? and Bi?doped lead halide perovskites is an area of current scientific debate. Model compounds featuring [PbE2I16]8? (E=Sb, Bi) anions that represent precise cut?outs of doped perovskites are presented. The compounds display surprisingly low band gaps owing to an excellent electronic match between PbI6 and EI6 units and represent the first members of a promising new class of metal halide materials.
