Reduced dimensionality forms of perovskites with alternating layers of organic ligands are a promising class of materials for achieving stable perovskite solar cells. Most work until now has focused on phases utilizing two ammonium terminated ligands per formula unit. However, phases utilizing a single diammonium ligand per formula unit are advantageous in that they can potentially have a thinner insulating organic layer between Pb‐halide layers, yet the structural effects on their optoelectronic properties are not yet well understood. In this study two organic ligands, butane 1,4‐diammonium (BDA) and N,N‐dimethylpropane diammonium (DMPD), are investigated as spacers in n = 1, 2D perovskites. Using ultraviolet and inverse photoelectron spectroscopies, BDAPbI4 is shown to have a larger transport gap by 350 meV and a larger exciton binding energy by 140 meV than DMPDPbI4. Through density functional theory calculations, the cause of this difference is traced to the out‐of‐plane tilting of the Pb‐halide octahedra provoked by the asymmetric ligand in DMPDPbI4. Parallel channels of nearly straight Pb? I? Pb bonds are formed in one direction, leading to enhanced electronic coupling and higher band dispersion in that direction. In BDAPbI4, no such channels exist, resulting in greater electronic confinement and a larger bandgap and exciton binding energy. 相似文献

Lead halide perovskites have recently emerged as promising absorbers for fabricating low‐cost and high‐efficiency thin‐film solar cells. The record power conversion efficiency of lead halide perovskite‐based solar cells has rapidly increased from 3.8% in 2009 to 22.1% in early 2016. Such rapid improvement is attributed to the superior and unique photovoltaic properties of lead halide perovskites, such as the extremely high optical absorption coefficients and super‐long photogenerated carrier lifetimes and diffusion lengths that are not seen in any other polycrystalline thin‐film solar cell materials. In the past a few years, theoretical approaches have been extensively applied to understand the fundamental mechanisms responsible for the superior photovoltaic properties of lead halide perovskites and have gained significant insights. This review article highlights the important theoretical results reported in literature for the understanding of the unique structural, electronic, optical, and defect properties of lead halide perovskite materials. For comparison, we also review the theoretical results reported in literature for some lead‐free perovskites, double perovskites, and nonperovskites. 相似文献

The peculiar optoelectronic properties of metal‐halide perovskites, partly underlying their success in solar cells and light emitting devices, are likely related to the complex interplay of electronic and structural features mediated by formation of polarons. In this paper the current status of polaron physics in metal‐halide perovskites is reviewed based on a first‐principles computational perspective, which has delivered hitherto noaccessible insights into the electronic and structural features associated with polaron formation in this materials class. The role of organic (dipolar) versus inorganic (spherical) A‐site cations is extensively analyzed, these cations are related to modulation of the energetics and structural extension of polarons in lead‐halide perovskites. Further tuning of polaron energetics is achieved by individual variations in metal (e.g., Pb → Sn) and halide (e.g., I → Br), showing a transition from a semilocalized to a localized polaron regime in which charge holes can be trapped at isolated Sn centers. The vastly varying and tunable nature of charge lattice interactions represents a peculiarity of metal‐halide perovskites that should be taken into account when designing novel materials or targeting specific compositional engineering of existing perovskites. 相似文献

The field of halide metal perovskite photovoltaics has caught widespread interest in the last decade. This is seen in the rapid rise of power conversion efficiency, which is currently over 23%. It has also stimulated a widespread application of halide metal perovskites in other fields, such as light‐emitting diodes, field‐effect transistors, detectors, and lasers. Despite the fascinating characteristics of the halide metal perovskites, the presence of toxic lead (Pb) in their chemical composition is regarded as one of the major limiting factors preventing their commercialization. Addressing the toxicity issues in these compounds by a careful and strategic replacement of Pb2+ with other nontoxic candidate elements represents a promising direction to fabricate lead‐free optoelectronic devices. Such attempts yield a halide double perovskite structure which allows flexibility for various compositional adjustments. Here, the authors present the current progress and setbacks in crystal structures, materials preparation, optoelectronic properties, stability, and photovoltaic applications of lead‐free halide double perovskite compounds. Prospective research directions to improve the optoelectronic properties of existing materials are given that may help in the discovery of new lead‐free halide double perovskites. 相似文献

Over the past few years, hybrid halide perovskites have emerged as a highly promising class of materials for photovoltaic technology, and the power conversion efficiency of perovskite solar cells (PSCs) has accelerated at an unprecedented pace, reaching a record value of over 22%. In the context of PSC research, wide‐bandgap semiconducting metal oxides have been extensively studied because of their exceptional performance for injection and extraction of photo‐generated carriers. In this comprehensive review, we focus on the synthesis and applications of metal oxides as electron and hole transporters in efficient PSCs with both mesoporous and planar architectures. Metal oxides and their doped variants with proper energy band alignment with halide perovskites, in the form of nanostructured layers and compact thin films, can not only assist with charge transport but also improve the stability of PSCs under ambient conditions. Strategies for the implementation of metal oxides with tailored compositions and structures, and for the engineering of their interfaces with perovskites will be critical for the future development and commercialization of PSCs. 相似文献

This study presents a combined experimental and theoretical study of the electronic structure of two 2D metal halide perovskite films. Ultraviolet and inverse photoemission spectroscopies are performed on solution‐processed thin films of the n = 1 layered perovskite butylammonium lead iodide and bromide, BA2PbI4 and BA2PbBr4, characterized by optical absorption and X‐ray diffraction, to determine their valence and conduction band densities of states, transport gaps, and exciton binding energies. The electron spectroscopy results are compared with the densities of states determined by density functional theory calculations. The remarkable agreement between experiment and calculation enables a detailed identification and analysis of the organic and inorganic contributions to the valence and conduction bands of these two hybrid perovskites. The electron affinity and ionization energies are found to be 3.1 and 5.8 eV for BA2PbI4, and 3.1 and 6.5 eV for BA2PbBr4. The exciton binding energies are estimated to be 260 and 300 meV for the two materials, respectively. The 2D lead iodide and bromide perovskites exhibit significantly less band dispersion and a larger density of states at the band edges than the 3D analogs. The effects of using various organic ligands are also discussed. 相似文献

Metal halide perovskites have been brought to the forefront of research focus in solution‐processable photovoltaics, with the device efficiency swiftly surging to over 22% over the past few years. The state‐of‐the‐art metal halide perovskites that have been intensively investigated include toxic lead, which potentially hampers their commercialization process. To address this toxicity issue, intensive recent research effort has been devoted to developing low‐toxic metal halide perovskites and their derivatives for photovoltaic applications. Herein, the recent research progress achieved so far in addressing the toxicity issue of lead halide perovskites in photovoltaics is summarized. By comparing the merits and drawbacks of different low‐toxic metal halide systems, the current challenges and opportunities in the photovoltaic field are highlighted. Potential low‐toxic metal halide perovskites and their derivatives are also discussed from the perspective of theoretical calculations. Furthermore, promising applications of low‐toxic metal halide perovskites beyond the photovoltaic sector are briefly discussed. 相似文献

Halide perovskite solar cells have achieved a certified efficiency of 25.2%, surpassing CdTe and CuInGaSe2, which have long been regarded as the most‐efficient thin‐film photovoltaic materials. As this exciting class of materials continues to mature, researchers will require characterization techniques capable of exposing the interplay among structure, chemistry, and optoelectronic properties to inform processing strategies and increase both device efficiencies and long‐term stability. Cathodoluminescence microscopy is an ideal technique to provide such information due to the high spatial resolution and robust optical information acquired. Here, the current body of work related to cathodoluminescence analysis of halide perovskite materials for optoelectronic applications is surveyed. This review demonstrates how cathodoluminescence can monitor degradation due to environmental stressors, phase segregation resulting from material processing, and other halide perovskite‐centric material issues. A persistent concern associated with e‐beam‐based analysis of halide perovskites is what effect the electron beam has on the material properties being probed. Addressing this, a detailed discussion is provided on the origin of the cathodoluminescence signal and a review of studies focused on revealing changes in the properties of halide perovskites resulting from e‐beam excitation. Finally, a perspective on future opportunities to expand the role of cathodoluminescence analysis for halide perovskites is provided. 相似文献

There has been a meteoric rise in the commercial potential of lead halide perovskite optoelectronic devices since photovoltaic cells and light‐emitting diodes based on these materials were first demonstrated. One key challenge common to each of these optoelectronic devices is the need to suppress nonradiative recombination, a process that limits the maximum achievable efficiency in photovoltaic cells and light‐emitting diodes. In this Progress Report, recent studies that seek to minimize this loss pathway in perovskites through a photobrightening treatment, whereby the luminescence efficiency is enhanced through a light illumination passivation process are examined. The sensitivity of this effect to various experimental considerations is examined, including atmosphere, photon energy, photon dose, and also the role of perovskite composition and morphology; under certain conditions there can even be photodarkening effects. Consideration of these factors is critical to resolve seemingly conflicting literature reports. Proposed mechanisms are scrutinized, revealing that there is now some consensus but further work is needed to identify the specific defects being passivated and elucidate universal mechanisms. Finally, the prospects for these treatments to minimize halide migration and push the properties of polycrystalline films towards those of their single‐crystal counterparts are discussed. 相似文献

Metal halide perovskite solar cells (PSCs) have emerged as promising candidates for photovoltaic technology with their power conversion efficiencies over 23%. For prototypical organic–inorganic metal halide perovskites, their intrinsic instability poses significant challenges to the commercialization of PSCs. Recently, the scientific community has done tremendous work in composition engineering to develop more robust light‐absorbing layers, including mixed‐ion hybrid perovskites, low‐dimensional hybrid perovskites, and all‐inorganic perovskites. This review provides an overview of the impact of these perovskites on the efficiency and long‐term stability of PSCs. 相似文献

Solar cells based on metal halide perovskites have emerged as a promising low‐cost photovoltaic technology. In contrast to inert atmospheres where most of the lab‐scale devices are made to date, large‐area low‐cost production of perovskite solar cells often involves processing of perovskites in various atmospheres including ambient air, nitrogen, and/or vacuum. Herein, the impact of atmosphere on the energy levels of methylammonium lead halide perovskite films is systematically investigated. The atmosphere is varied to simulate the typical fabrication process. Through a comprehensive analysis combining the Fermi level evolution, surface photovoltage, photoluminescence properties, photovoltaic performance, and device simulation, an overall landscape of the energy diagram of the perovskite layer is able to be determined. The findings have direct implications for real‐world devices under typical atmospheres, and provide insights into the fabrication‐process design and optimization. Furthermore, a universal Fermi level shift under vacuum for lead halide‐based perovskites revealed in this study, urges a refreshed view on the energetics studies conducted without considering the atmospheric effect. 相似文献

Traps exert an omnipotent influence over the performance of halide perovskite optoelectronic devices. A clear understanding of the origin and nature of the traps in halide perovskites is the key to controlling them and realizing optimal devices. Herein, the role of localized traps on the optical properties of lead bromide perovskite films is investigated. In the low‐temperature orthorhombic phase of CH3NH3PbBr3 perovskite, band‐edge carrier dynamics exhibit a power‐law decay due to the presence of structural‐disorder‐induced localized traps, which has a depth of ≈40 meV. The continuous distribution of these localized traps gives rise to a broad sub‐band‐gap emission that becomes more prominent in thicker films with a larger trap density. The presence of this emission only from the hybrid organic–inorganic perovskites points to the vital role of organic dipoles in localized trap states formation. This study explicates the nature of these localized traps as well as their nontrivial role in carrier recombination kinetics, which is of fundamental importance in perovskites optoelectronics. 相似文献

Perovskite solar cells have been heralded as one of the most promising emerging technologies in 2016 because of the very high power conversion efficiency of 22% and the low cost of generating electricity compared to even fossil fuels. These are formed with various dimensionalities and can be fully manipulated once their bulk structure is reduced to a low‐dimensional structure. Despite being one of the most attractive materials to date, their instability significantly influences device performance and subsequently prevents the timely commercialization of perovskite solar cell technology. In this review, the recent advances in the synthesis of stable low‐dimensional metal‐halide perovskites are highlighted. 相似文献

The chemical composition engineering of lead halide perovskites via a partial or complete replacement of toxic Pb with tin has been widely reported as a feasible process due to the suitable ionic radius of Sn and its possibility of existing in the +2 state. Interestingly, a complete replacement narrows the bandgap while a partial replacement gives an anomalous phenomenon involving a further narrowing of bandgap relative to the pure Pb and Sn halide perovskite compounds. Unfortunately, the merits of this anomalous behavior have not been properly harnessed. Although promising progress has been made to advance the properties and performance of Sn‐based perovskite systems, their photovoltaic (PV) parameters are still significantly inferior to those of the Pb‐based analogs. This review summarizes the current progress and challenges in the preparation, morphological and photophysical properties of Sn‐based halide perovskites, and how these affect their PV performance. Although it can be argued that the Pb halide perovskite systems may remain the most sought after technology in the field of thin film perovskite PV, prospective research directions are suggested to advance the properties of Sn halide perovskite materials for improved device performance. 相似文献

The meteoric rise of perovskite single‐junction solar cells has been accompanied by similar stunning developments in perovskite tandem solar cells. Debuting with efficiencies less than 14% in 2014, silicon–perovskite solar cells are now above 25% and will soon surpass record silicon single‐junction efficiencies. Unconstrained by the Shockley–Quiesser single‐junction limit, perovskite tandems suggest a real possibility of true third‐generation thin‐film photovoltaics; monolithic all‐perovskite tandems have reached 18% efficiency and will likely pass perovskite single‐junction efficiencies within the next 5 years. Inorganic–organic metal–halide perovskites are ideal candidates for inclusion in tandem solar cells due to their high radiative recombination efficiencies, excellent absorption, long‐range charge‐transport, and broad ability to tune the bandgap. In this progress report, the development of perovskite tandem cells is reviewed, with presentation of their key motivations and challenges. In detail, it presents an overview of recombination layer materials, bandgap‐tuneability, transparent contact architectures, and perovskite compounds for use in tandems. Theoretical estimates of efficiency for future tandem and triple‐junction perovskite cells are presented, outlining roadmaps for future focused research. 相似文献

In the past few years, organic–inorganic metal halide ABX3 perovskites (A = Rb, Cs, methylammonium, formamidinium (FA); B = Pb, Sn; X = Cl, Br, I) have rapidly emerged as promising materials for photovoltaic applications. Tuning the film morphology by various deposition techniques and additives is crucial to achieve solar cells with high performance and long‐term stability. In this work, carbon nanoparticles (CNPs) containing functional groups are added to the perovskite precursor solution for fabrication of fluorine‐doped tin oxide/TiO2/perovskite/spiro‐OMeTAD/gold devices. With the addition of CNPs, the perovskite films are thermally more stable, contain larger grains, and become more hydrophobic. NMR experiments provide strong evidence that the functional groups of the CNPs interact with FA cations already in the precursor solution. The fabricated solar cells show a power‐conversion efficiency of 18% and negligible hysteresis. 相似文献

Thermal degradation in perovskite solar cells is still an unsettled issue that limits its further development. In this study, 2‐(1H‐pyrazol‐1‐yl)pyridine is introduced into lead halide 3D perovskites, which allows 1D–3D hybrid perovskite materials to be obtained. The heterostructural 1D–3D perovskites are proved to be capable of remarkably prolonging the photoluminescence decay lifetime and suppressing charge carrier recombination in comparison to conventional 3D perovskites. The intrinsic properties of thermodynamically stable yet kinetically labile 1D materials allow the system to alleviate the lattice mismatch and passivate the interface traps of heterojunction region of 1D–3D hybrid perovskites that may occur during the crystal growth process. Importantly, the as‐fabricated 1D–3D perovskite solar cells display a thermodynamic self‐healing ability, which is induced through blocking the ion‐migration channels of A‐site ions by the flexible 1D perovskite with less densely close‐packed structure. Particularly, the power conversion efficiency of as‐fabricated unencapsulated 1D–3D perovskite solar cells is demonstrated to be reversible under temperature cycling (25–85 °C) at 55% relative humidity, which largely outperforms the pure 3D perovskite solar cell. The present study provides a facile approach to fabricate 1D–3D perovskite solar cells with high efficiency and long‐term stability. 相似文献

Metal halide perovskite solar cells (PSCs) have risen in efficiency from just 3.81% in 2009 to over 25.2% today. While metal halide perovskites have excelled in efficiency, advances in stability are significantly more complex and have progressed more slowly. The advance of efficiency, which is readily measured, over stability, which can require literally thousands of hours to demonstrate, is to be expected given the rapid rate of innovation in the field. In the face of changing absorber composition, synthetic approaches, and device stack components it is necessary to understand basic material properties to rationalize how to enable stability in devices. In this article the aim is to present an in‐depth review of the current understanding of metal halide perovskite devices and module stability by focusing on what is known retarding intrinsic and extrinsic degradation mechanisms at the material, device, and module level. Once these considerations are presented the discussion then moves to connecting different degradation mechanisms to stresses anticipated in operation and how they can impact efficiency of cells and ultimately modules over time. 相似文献

The operation of halide perovskite optoelectronic devices, including solar cells and LEDs, is strongly influenced by the mobility of ions comprising the crystal structure. This peculiarity is particularly true when considering the long‐term stability of devices. A detailed understanding of the ion migration‐driven degradation pathways is critical to design effective stabilization strategies. Nonetheless, despite substantial research in this first decade of perovskite photovoltaics, the long‐term effects of ion migration remain elusive due to the complex chemistry of lead halide perovskites. By linking materials chemistry to device optoelectronics, this study highlights that electrical bias‐induced perovskite amorphization and phase segregation is a crucial degradation mechanism in planar mixed halide perovskite solar cells. Depending on the biasing potential and the injected charge, halide segregation occurs, forming crystalline iodide‐rich domains, which govern light emission and participate in light absorption and photocurrent generation. Additionally, the loss of crystallinity limits charge collection efficiency and eventually degrades the device performance. 相似文献

Recently, perovskites with multiple cations, metals, and anions have shown very high efficiencies and stabilities for perovskite solar cells. The novel materials frequently exhibit unexpected and beneficial properties, outperforming simpler counterparts. The trend of increasing material complexity requires a systematic strategy to explore polyelemental “multicomponent engineering.” Here, a combinatorial approach is introduced to generate all possible, unique combinations within a set of available components. Thus, with each new component, the combinatorial framework can generate the full theoretical parameter space. Based on reported components, the experimental parameter space can then be identified. The exceptional material versatility of perovskites is suited for high‐throughput screening, machine‐learning, or data mining, laying the foundation for a “perovskite genome project” that thoroughly catalogues the entire material family for desired properties. This can provide the framework for theoretical simulations toward understanding the fundamental working principles of perovskite materials enabling the “next big thing” after perovskites. Finally, informed by literature, a promising candidate list for future material exploration is presented including novel organic‐free, Pb‐free, and all‐inorganic perovskites. These compounds are primary contenders toward stable, high efficiency, and reproducible materials for rapid industrialization of perovskite solar cells, lasers, light‐emitting diodes, photo detectors, or particle detectors. 相似文献
