All-Inorganic CsPbBr3 Perovskite Films Prepared by Single Source Thermal Ablation.

ABSTRACT: Hybrid organo-lead halide perovskites are becoming the benchmark material for next generation photovoltaics and a very important player for other applications such as photodetectors and light emitting diodes. Nevertheless, the most important issue hindering the large-scale application of these materials remains their intrinsic instability due to the organic cation. Although the substitution with inorganic cesium (Cs) enhances stability, in most cases solution deposition methods of fully inorganic perovskites result in high surface roughness and poor surface coverage. This work reports on the evaporation of the CsPbBr3 precursor by Single Source Thermal Ablation, showing that just after deposition films consist of a mixture of CsPbBr3, CsPb2Br5, and Cs4PbBr6 due to a vertical composition gradient. We point out that mild post deposition treatments lead to the conversion of CsPb2Br5 and Cs4PbBr6 into CsPbBr3 due to its higher thermodynamic stability. Conversion results into smooth and pinhole-free CsPbBr3 films with good light absorption and emission properties. We demonstrate the suitability of obtained films for planar devices by preparing perovskite-based pure-green light emitting diodes, thus promoting Single Source Thermal Ablation as a promising alternative deposition technique for all-inorganic perovskite-based devices.

Project description:All-inorganic lead halide perovskite, characterized by its exceptional optical and electrical properties, is burgeoning as a potential optoelectronic material. However, the standalone CsPbBr3 component encounters several challenges including small exciton binding energy (≈40 meV) and long charge diffusion length, giving rise to low photo-luminescence quantum-yield (PLQY); ion migration leads to instability in device operation, hindering device operation and potential development. To circumvent these limitations, our research endeavors to construct a novel core–shell structure that transforms the continuous [PbX6]4− octahedron into an isolated octahedral structure. We introduce the Cs4PbBr6 phase with 0D structure to passivate the vacancy defects in CsPbBr3, thereby suppressing ion migration and enhancing the luminescence intensity and stability. Our methodology involves fabricating dense CsPbBr3–Cs4PbBr6 composite films using a co-evaporation method, wherein the molar ratio of CsBr and PbBr2 is precisely adjusted. The films are subsequently rapidly annealed under ambient air conditions, and the effects of different annealing temperatures and annealing times on the CsPbBr3–Cs4PbBr6 films were investigated. Our results demonstrate significantly improved stability of the annealed films, with a mere 15% decrease in PL intensity after 100 days of storage under ambient air conditions at 48% relative humidity (RH). Based on this thin film, we fabricated all-inorganic structure Ag/N–Si/CsPbBr3–Cs4PbBr6/NiO/ITO light emitting diodes (LEDs), the devices have a low turn-on voltage VT ∼3 V and under unencapsulated, ambient air conditions, it can operate continuously for 12 hours under DC drive with only 10% attenuation. The results we obtained open up the possibility of designing and developing air-stable perovskite LEDs. This experiment involves rapid air annealing of CsPbBr3–Cs4PbBr6 thin films. Based on this thin film, we fabricated all-inorganic LEDs, the devices can operate continuously for 12 hours under ambient air with only 10% attenuation.
