Overcoming Nanoscale Inhomogeneities in Thin-Film Perovskites via Exceptional Post-annealing Grain Growth for Enhanced Photodetection

Abstract: Antisolvent-assisted spin coating has been widely used for fabricating metal halide perovskite films with smooth and compact morphology. However, localized nanoscale inhomogeneities exist in these films owing to rapid crystallization, undermining their overall optoelectronic performance. Here, we show that by relaxing the requirement for film smoothness, outstanding film quality can be obtained simply through a post-annealing grain growth process without passivation agents. The morphological changes, driven by… Show more

“…From Figure 4c, it can be seen that there was an overall reduction in FWHM with an increase in the aerosol annealing temperature. This may be due to an increase in grain size (as previously found from aerosol‐annealed lead–halide perovskite films), [ 33,35 ] or a decrease in strain in the films. To decouple the effects of grain size and strain, we constructed Williamson–Hall plots for films annealed at each temperature (Figure S7, Supporting Information).…”

“…[28][29][30] Some of the highest performing perovskite solar cells are based on mixed-cation, mixed-halide materials with power conversion efficiencies currently > 25 %. [27,31,32] Incorporating increasing quantities of Br into MAPb(I 1−x Br x ) 3 allows effective tuning of the optical bandgap, [33][34][35][36][37] which is critical to improve the efficiency of both single and multi-junction solar cells. [38,39] Moreover, altering halide composition can also have positive effects on film crystallization, morphology, and stability.…”

“…They are based on the use of charge-blocking layers to minimize charge injection. [22,23] Other strategies are related to inclusion of additives [24,25] or controlling film crystallization [26,27] to minimize backward charge injection at the electrodes. However, there is a deficit of efforts focused on understanding the role of perovskite composition and its correlation to device J d .…”
