Structural Dynamics of Metal Halide Perovskites during Photoinduced Halide Segregation

Gabriel C. Halford et al.

Summary: In this study, new insights into the halide-segregation process in mixed halide perovskites were obtained through in situ X-ray diffraction measurements. The photoinduced halide segregation leads to the formation of iodide-rich and bromide-rich perovskite compositions with the same Br:I ratios, which can reversely transform back to the mixed halide perovskite under dark conditions. The results help to understand the kinetics and mechanisms of halide-segregation process in mixed-halide perovskites.

Tin Halide Perovskites: From Fundamental Properties to Solar Cells

Matteo Pitaro et al.

Summary: Metal halide perovskites, particularly tin-based compounds, show promise for optoelectronic applications, with lead-based compounds being toxic and harmful to the environment. Although tin-based perovskites offer advantages such as near-optimal bandgap and good charge carrier mobilities, their efficiency is currently limited by low defect tolerance, fast crystallization, and oxidative instability. Efforts are being made to improve tin-based perovskite solar cells, focusing on strategies to enhance device performances and address existing challenges in a concerted manner.

Effect of Light-Induced Halide Segregation on the Performance of Mixed-Halide Perovskite Solar Cells

Summary: The study shows that light-induced halide segregation affects the performance of mixed-halide perovskite solar cells, resulting in a loss of short-circuit current density and red-shifted photoluminescence. Partial substitution of organic cations by cesium ions can reduce the negative impact of photogenerated charge carriers locating in iodide-rich domains and mitigate the loss in photovoltaic performance. Ultrasensitive photocurrent spectroscopy indicates that cesium ions lower the density of sub-band-gap defects and suppress defect growth under illumination.
