“…The APbX 3 Pb halide perovskites (HaPs), with A being a monovalent cation and X a halide anion, are attractive materials for inexpensive yet very efficient thin polycrystalline film solar cells, , light-emitting diodes, , and radiation , and particle detectors . However, doubts about the stability of the devices and even of the materials themselves overshadows their outstanding performance because, under certain conditions, HaPs degrade during exposure to intense radiation and humid conditions. , To date, most studies on stability have been done on complete devices with a multicomponent architecture, where it is likely that changes occur at interfaces and in the non-HaP parts of the devices .…”

A-Site Cation Dependence of Self-Healing in Polycrystalline APbI₃ Perovskite Films

In terms of sustainable use, halide perovskite (HaP) semiconductors have a strong advantage over most other classes of materials for (opto)electronics, as they can self-heal (SH) from photodamage. While there is considerable literature on SH in devices, where it may not be clear exactly where damage and SH occur, there is much less on the HaP material itself. Here we perform “fluorescence recovery after photobleaching” (FRAP) measurements to study SH on polycrystalline thin films for which encapsulation is critical to achieving complete and fast self-healing. We compare SH in three photoactive APbI3 perovskite films by varying the A-site cation ranging from (relatively) small inorganic Cs through medium-sized MA to large FA (the last two are organic cations). While the A cation is often considered electronically relatively inactive, it significantly affects both SH kinetics and the threshold for photodamage. The SH kinetics are markedly faster for γ-CsPbI3 and α-FAPbI3 than for MAPbI3. Furthermore, γ-CsPbI3 exhibits an intricate interplay between photoinduced darkening and brightening. We suggest possible explanations for the observed differences in SH behavior. This study’s results are essential for identifying absorber materials that can regain intrinsic, insolation-induced photodamage-linked efficiency loss during its rest cycles, thus enabling applications such as autonomously sustainable electronics.

“…Techniques like surface passivation, partial substitution, additives and deoxidisers have been used to address the stability concerns of Sb-based perovskites. Surface passivation is a technique where defects or recombination sites on the surface of the perovskite film are eradicated through a molecular-binding technique [81]. This method dramatically reduces charge recombination and promotes charge transfer to a greater extent.…”

<p><strong>Abstract:</strong> Over the past decade, lead halide perovskite light absorbers have been the conventionally used perovskite light absorbers. However, there is an urgent call for alternative perovskite materials with toxicity levels and poor stability to UV radiations. Antimony-based perovskites have proven to be a material with unique optoelectronic properties, conventional fabrication processes, low-toxicity levels and high stability values. In this review, we look into the structure of antimony perovskites, the various research achievements over recent years, and the challenges and opportunities ahead for this budding technology. The review also highlights the various computational, theoretical and experimental studies done by researchers to highlight the peculiar Lead-free perovskite materials and their distinctive features. Although the efficiency levels of these devices are not very high, the improvements they have made with remarkable stability characteristics make them a viable candidate for commercial perovskite photovoltaics</p>

“…Hybrid metal halide perovskite has become one of the most promising photovoltaic materials due to its excellent optical absorption coefficient, high carrier mobility, and adjustable band gap. − At present, the power conversion efficiency (PCE) of perovskite solar cells (PSCs) recorded by the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) has reached 25.7% . However, most studies on PSCs are based on the fabrication of small-area devices with one-step or sequential two-step solution-processed methods. − In order to obtain high-quality perovskite films, efforts have been made to surface modification strategies, such as solvent engineering, anti-solvent-assisted crystallization, and vapor-assisted nucleation. − These methods require the use of toxic organic solvents such as chlorobenzene (CB), dimethylformamide (DMF), and dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO), , which raise the risks of environment and health in mass production.…”

Effects of Lead Iodide Crystallization on Photovoltaic Performance of Perovskite Solar Cells by the Vapor-Solid Reaction Method

et al. 2023

The vapor-solid reaction method (VRM) is one of the promising techniques to prepare high-performance perovskite solar cells. Herein, PbI2 precursor films were prepared by vacuum evaporation. It was found that the PbI2 precursor films exhibit high crystallinity and orderly morphology at the substrate temperature of 110 °C. On this basis, the precursor films were prepared by VRM to obtain high-quality perovskite films and the power conversion efficiency (PCE) of perovskite solar cells (PSCs) devices reached 17.1%. In contrast, the PbI2 film precursor was prepared on the substrate without being heated and the PCE of the final PSCs devices was only 13.04%.
