Pseudo-halide anion engineering for efficient quasi-2D Ruddlesden-Popper tin perovskite solar cells

Quasi-two-dimensional (2D) organic-inorganic hybrid tin perovskites have emerged as promising alternatives to lead-based perovskites in thin-film photovoltaics because of their reduced toxicity and improved stability. However, the undesired small n-value 2D phases and disordered crystal orientation enormously restrict the efficiency of quasi-2D tin perovskite solar cells (PSCs) due to uncontrollable nucleation and crystal growth processes. Here, we propose a mixed pseudo-halide anion engineering approach by using acetate (Ac - ) and tetrafluoroborate (BF 4 - ) anions to make quasi-2D Ruddlesden-Popper perovskites with a target formula of PEA 2 FA 4 Sn 5 I 16 . We find that the mixed Ac - and BF 4 - anions can not only promote homogeneously distributed PEA + cations in the precursor by effectively breaking the PEA + ···PEA + stacking but also retard the crystallization process by coordinating with unbonded SnI 2 , thereby, significantly reducing small n-value 2D phases, improving the crystal orientation, and suppressing the Sn 2+ oxidation. The resulting PSC exhibits up to 9% power conversion efficiency and 400 h stability.

Nanotechnology for catalysis and solar energy conversion

This roadmap on Nanotechnology for Catalysis and Solar Energy Conversion focuses on the application of nanotechnology in addressing the current challenges of energy conversion: 'high efficiency, stability, safety, and the potential for low-cost/scalable manufacturing' to quote from the contributed article by Nathan Lewis. This roadmap focuses on solar-to-fuel conversion, solar water splitting, solar photovoltaics and bio-catalysis. It includes dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs), perovskite solar cells, and organic photovoltaics. Smart engineering of colloidal quantum materials and nanostructured electrodes will improve solar-to-fuel conversion efficiency, as described in the articles by Waiskopf and Banin and Meyer. Semiconductor nanoparticles will also improve solar energy conversion efficiency, as discussed by Boschloo et al in their article on DSSCs. Perovskite solar cells have advanced rapidly in recent years, including new ideas on 2D and 3D hybrid halide perovskites, as described by Spanopoulos et al 'Next generation' solar cells using multiple exciton generation (MEG) from hot carriers, described in the article by Nozik and Beard, could lead to remarkable improvement in photovoltaic efficiency by using quantization effects in semiconductor nanostructures (quantum dots, wires or wells). These challenges will not be met without simultaneous improvement in nanoscale characterization methods. Terahertz spectroscopy, discussed in the article by Milot et al is one example of a method that is overcoming the difficulties associated with nanoscale materials characterization by avoiding electrical contacts to nanoparticles, allowing characterization during device operation, and enabling characterization of a single nanoparticle. Besides experimental advances, computational science is also meeting the challenges of nanomaterials synthesis. The article by Kohlstedt and Schatz discusses the computational frameworks being used to predict structure–property relationships in materials and devices, including machine learning methods, with an emphasis on organic photovoltaics. The contribution by Megarity and Armstrong presents the 'electrochemical leaf' for improvements in electrochemistry and beyond. In addition, biohybrid approaches can take advantage of efficient and specific enzyme catalysts. These articles present the nanoscience and technology at the forefront of renewable energy development that will have significant benefits to society.

Highly tunable properties in pressure-treated two-dimensional Dion–Jacobson perovskites

Significance Two-dimensional Dion–Jacobson (2D D-J) lead-halide perovskite is a cutting-edge material paradigm that has realized high-efficiency photovoltaic applications and synergetic chemical stability. With the addition of the pressure dimension, this material provides a crucial platform for studying both pressure-tailored physical properties and pressure-driven novel phenomena. Here, we demonstrate that 2D D-J perovskites experience various transitions under pressure, such as crystalline-amorphous and 2D–three-dimensional structural transformation, and the probable metallization are strongly suggested. Moreover, the fundamental changes in the material properties are observed at ambient conditions after pressure treatment, which is crucial for achieving the desired characteristics for viable applications.

Pressure Effects on the Electronic and Optical Properties in Low-Dimensional Metal Halide Perovskites

Metal halide perovskites have shown enormous potential in perovskite solar cells and light-emitting diodes and made unprecedented progress in the past decade. Additionally, pressure engineering as an effective technique can systematically modify the electronic structures and physical properties of functional materials. Low-dimensional metal halide perovskites (0D, 1D, and 2D) with a variety of compositions have soft lattices that allow pressure to drastically modulate their structures and properties. High-pressure investigations have obtained a comprehensive understanding of their structure–property relationships. Simultaneously, discoveries of novel pressure-driven properties, such as metallization and partially retained band gap narrowing have contributed significantly to the further development of such materials. In this work, we mainly highlight the effect of pressure on the properties and structures of low-dimensional metal halide perovskites, which is essential for designing new perovskite materials and advancing applications.

Single-source pulsed laser-deposited perovskite solar cells with enhanced performance via bulk and 2D passivation

Single-source vapor deposition of halide perovskites has, to date, remained challenging due to the dissimilar volatilities of the precursors, limiting the controlled transfer of multiple elements at once. Here, we demonstrate that pulsed laser deposition (PLD) addresses the rate-control challenges of single-source evaporation, enabling perovskite solar cells with power conversion efficiencies above 19% after passivation. Combining dry mechanochemical synthesis and PLD, we fabricated (Cl-passivated) MA1−xFAxPbI3 films from a single-source target. These films grow on hole-selective self-assembled monolayers, initially forming a thin PbI2-rich layer, which fully converts to perovskite. An oleylammonium iodide (OAmI) post-treatment is then applied to passivate the perovskite’s top surface by forming a 2D perovskite film. Incorporating PbCl2 in the target and applying OAmI-based 2D passivation results in a remarkable 19.7% efficiency for p-i-n perovskite solar cells with enhanced device stability. This highlights the appeal of PLD to fully unlock the potential of single-source vapor-deposited perovskites.

Perovskite Electronic Ratchets for Energy Harvesting

Electronic ratchets are energy-harvesting devices that can utilize spatially asymmetric potential distributions to convert nondirectional/random sources of energy into direct current. The potential asymmetry can be generated in a number of ways, but one purported mechanism is to redistribute ions directly within the active material. Utilizing the known propensity for ion migration in lead-halide perovskites (LHP), the first LHP flashing electronic ratchet is demonstrated by using a voltage stress to intentionally redistribute halide ions within a prototypical 2D perovskite. The resulting asymmetric potential distribution across the 2D perovskite allows for conversion of both electronic noise and unbiased square-wave potentials into current. Furthermore, simultaneous application of light illumination and voltage stress enhances the asymmetric potential distribution, enabling higher current than the nonilluminated device. This work presents an electronic ratchet system that exploits facile ion migration, which can be modified by both electrical and optical stimuli, providing a model system with the potential to test outstanding mechanistic questions for electronic ratchets.

Understanding the evolution of double perovskite band structure upon dimensional reduction

Recent investigations into the effects of dimensional reduction on halide double perovskites have revealed an intriguing change in band structure when the three-dimensional (3D) perovskite is reduced to a two-dimensional (2D) perovskite with inorganic sheets of monolayer thickness (n = 1). The indirect bandgap of 3D Cs 2 AgBiBr 6 becomes direct in the n = 1 perovskite whereas the direct bandgap of 3D Cs 2 AgTlBr 6 becomes indirect at the n = 1 limit. Here, we apply a linear combination of atomic orbitals approach to uncover the orbital basis for this bandgap symmetry transition with dimensional reduction. We adapt our previously established method for predicting band structures of 3D double perovskites for application to their 2D congeners, emphasizing new considerations required for the 2D lattice. In particular, we consider the inequivalence of the terminal and bridging halides and the consequences of applying translational symmetry only along two dimensions. The valence and conduction bands of the layered perovskites can be derived from symmetry adapted linear combinations of halide p orbitals propagated across the 2D lattice. The dispersion of each band is then determined by the bonding and antibonding interactions of the metal and halide orbitals, thus affording predictions of the essential features of the band structure. We demonstrate this analysis for 2D Ag–Bi and Ag–Tl perovskites with sheets of mono- and bilayer thickness, establishing a detailed understanding of their band structures, which enables us to identify the key factors that drive the bandgap symmetry transitions observed at the n = 1 limit. Importantly, these insights also allow us to make the general prediction that direct → indirect or indirect → direct bandgap transitions in the monolayer limit are most likely in double perovskite compositions that involve participation of metal d orbitals at the band edges or that have no metal-orbital contributions to the valence band, laying the groundwork for the targeted realization of this phenomenon.

Nonequilibrium Lattice Dynamics in Photoexcited 2D Perovskites

Abstract Interplay between structural and photophysical properties of metal halide perovskites is critical to their utility in optoelectronics, but there is limited understanding of lattice response upon photoexcitation. Here, 2D perovskites butylammonium lead iodide, (BA) 2 PbI 4 , and phenethylammonium lead iodide, (PEA) 2 PbI 4 , are investigated using ultrafast transient X‐ray diffraction as a function of optical excitation fluence to discern structural dynamics. Both powder X‐ray diffraction and time‐resolved photoluminescence linewidths narrow over 1 ns following optical excitation for the fluence range studied, concurrent with slight redshifting of the optical bandgaps. These observations are attributed to transient relaxation and ordering of distorted lead iodide octahedra stimulated mainly by electron–hole pair creation. The c axis expands up to 0.37% over hundreds of picoseconds; reflections sampling the a and b axes undergo one tenth of this expansion with the same timescale. Post‐photoexcitation appearance of the (110) reflection in (BA) 2 PbI 4 would suggest a transient phase transition, however, through new single‐crystal XRD, reflections are found that violate glide plane conditions in the reported Pbca structure. The static structure space group is reassigned as P 2 1 2 1 2 1 . With this, a nonequilibrium phase transition is ruled out. These findings offer increased understanding of remarkable lattice response in 2D perovskites upon excitation.

Fabrication of pristine 2D heterostructures for scanning probe microscopy

Material-by-design has been a long-standing aspiration that has recently become a reality. Such designer materials have been repeatedly demonstrated using the top-down approach of mechanical exfoliation and stacking, leading to a variety of artificial 2D heterostructures with new properties that are otherwise unattainable. Consequently, tremendous research frontiers in physics, chemistry, engineering, and life science have been created. While thousands of layered crystals exist in nature, only a few dozen of them with manageable chemical-stability have been made into heterostructures using this method. Moreover, experimental investigations of materials that have received limited exploration in the 2D realm, such as cuprates, halides, and perovskites, along with their heterostructures, have been fundamentally hindered by their rapid chemical degradation. Another critical challenge imposed by exfoliating and stacking 2D layers in ambient environment is the absorption of itinerant gas molecules that further contaminate sensitive 2D interfaces in the heterostructures. Such contamination and compromised material properties significantly hinder surface-sensitive local probes—scanning probe microscopy (SPM)—that often require nanometer to atomic scale surface cleanliness. In this article, we aim to provide a technical review of recent development toward 2D materials and heterostructure fabrication in more controlled environments that are suitable for SPM characterizations. These include the development of more efficient mechanical exfoliation and dry-transfer techniques, as well as the incorporation of 2D material exfoliation and transfer in inert gas, low vacuum, and, eventually, ultra-high vacuum environments. Finally, we provide an outlook on the remaining challenges and opportunities in ultra-clean 2D material fabrication techniques.

Strong Rashba-Dresselhaus Effect in Nonchiral 2D Ruddlesden-Popper Perovskites

Chirality transfer from organic chiral molecules to lead halides is theorized as the origin of the strong Rashba-Dresselhaus effect causing large circular dichroism (CD) and circularly polarized luminescence (CPL) in metal halide perovskites (MHPs). In this report a concrete empirical evidence is provided that such strong CD and CPL can occur even in nonchiral 2D Ruddlesden-Popper perovskites (RPPs) (BA) 2 (MA) n-1 Pb n I 3n+1 (where MA = CH 3 NH 3 and BA = CH 3 (CH 2 ) 3 NH 3 ). The CD and CPL responses occurring at the excitonic transition of the MHPs are strongest (≈100 mdeg and 4.8%, respectively) when a single lead halide octahedral [PbI 6 ] 4- layer is repeatedly stacked between two nonchiral molecules BA + (n = 1). However, they are rapidly quenched as n increases. It is hypothesized that strong Rashba-Dresselhaus splitting in the 2D RPPs originates the strong CD and CPL signatures. Density functional theory calculations reveal that the large interlayer distortions in the inorganic layers at the organic/inorganic interface give rise to the strong Rashba-Dresselhaus splitting. A Rashba-Dresselhaus field of ≈600 and ≈50 mT for n = 1 and 2, respectively, is estimated by magnetic circular dichroism spectroscopy. The studies may have significant impact on designing 2D RPPs with large Rashba-Dresselhaus effects at room temperature for spintronic applications.

Metastable Dion-Jacobson 2D structure enables efficient and stable perovskite solar cells

The performance of three-dimensional (3D) organic-inorganic halide perovskite solar cells (PSCs) can be enhanced through surface treatment with 2D layered perovskites that have efficient charge transport. We maximized hole transport across the layers of a metastable Dion-Jacobson (DJ) 2D perovskite that tuned the orientational arrangements of asymmetric bulky organic molecules. The reduced energy barrier for hole transport increased out-of-plane transport rates by a factor of 4 to 5, and the power conversion efficiency (PCE) for the 2D PSC was 4.9%. With the metastable DJ 2D surface layer, the PCE of three common 3D PSCs was enhanced by approximately 12 to 16% and could reach approximately 24.7%. For a triple-cation–mixed-halide PSC, 90% of the initial PCE was retained after 1000 hours of 1-sun operation at ~40°C in nitrogen.

Film formation mechanisms in mixed-dimensional 2D/3D halide perovskite films revealed by in situ grazing-incidence wide-angle X-ray scattering

We report mixed dimensionality 2D/3D hybrid halide perovskites retain the stability of 2D perovskites (formula (A')2(A)n-1PbnI3n+1) and long diffusion lengths of the 3D materials (formula AMX3), thereby affording solar cells with extended stability as well as state of the art efficiencies approaching that of the 3D materials. These films are made by spin coating precursor solutions with arbitrarily large average layer thickness n ($\langle$n$\rangle$ > 7) to give films with both 2D and 3D phases present. While the 2D and 3D perovskite film formation mechanisms have been studied previously, little is understood about composite 2D/3D film formation. We used in situ grazing-incidence wide-angle scattering (GIWAXS) with synchrotron radiation to fully characterize films fabricated from precursor solutions with stoichiometries of (BA) 2 (MA) n-1 Pb n I 3n+1 ($\langle$n$\rangle$ = 3, 4, 5, 7, “12,” “50,” and ∞ (MAPbI 3 )). Four different mechanisms are seen depending on the stoichiometry in the precursor solution. When $\langle$n$\rangle$ = 3, oriented perovskite grows directly. For $\langle$n$\rangle$ = 4-5, the needle-shaped solvate (MA) 2 Pb 3 I 8 ·2DMF forms concomitantly with the oriented perovskite which leads to 2D/3D composite films. For $\langle$n$\rangle$ ≥ 7, this solvate dominates and unoriented perovskite grows in secondarily. For 3D perovskite, the solvate is the only phase formed. Kinetic analysis shows faster and earlier growth of the solvate with increasing $\langle$n$\rangle$. Using this knowledge, we show that the undesirable solvate mechanism can be reduced by addition of excess ammonium iodide in the precursor solution to give highly oriented films.

Reduced recombination via tunable surface fields in perovskite thin films

Here, the ability to reduce energy loss at semiconductor surfaces through passivation or surface field engineering is an essential step in the manufacturing of efficient photovoltaic (PV) and optoelectronic devices. Similarly, surface modification of emerging halide perovskites with quasi-two-dimensional (2D) heterostructures is now ubiquitous to achieve PV power conversion efficiencies (PCEs) >25%, yet a fundamental understanding to how these treatments function is still generally lacking. Here we use a unique combination of depth-sensitive nanoscale characterization techniques to uncover a tunable passivation strategy and mechanism found in perovskite PV devices that were the first to reach the >25% PCE milestone. Namely, treatment with hexylammonium bromide leads to the simultaneous formation of an iodide-rich 2D layer along with a Br halide gradient that extends from defective surfaces and grain boundaries into the bulk three-dimensional (3D) layer. This interface can be optimized to extend the charge carrier lifetime to record values >30 μs and to reduce interfacial recombination velocities to values as low as <7 cm s −1 .

Structure, Morphology, and Photovoltaic Implications of Halide Alloying in Lead-Free Cs 3 Sb 2 Cl x I 9-x 2D-Layered Perovskites

Compositional tuning has been a major driving force behind the excellent optoelectronic properties observed in typical Pb-based perovskites. For lead-free perovskite derivatives, a challenge to understanding the connection between compositional tuning and intrinsic optoelectronic properties, hence a barrier towards boosting their performance, comes from the fact that multiple crystalline substructures can form based on composition, film processing, or both. Especially with lower dimensional (0D, 1D, 2D) substructures, the particular polymorph present in the film can be a greater determinant of optoelectronic properties than the composition itself. Herein, we report a simple method to alloy the halide site in all-inorganic lead-free Cs 3 Sb 2 I 9 films while maintaining a consistent 2D-layered substructure, as a means to independently study the photovoltaic implications of halide substitution. We use a broad suite of spectroscopy and device measurements to identify an optimal stoichiometric substitution of chloride for iodide (~ 8 mol%, measured) that balances both intrinsic and bulk optoelectronic properties to achieve a top power conversion efficiency of 2.2%. This work underscores the importance of controlling substructure while investigating the impacts of compositional tuning for the development of lead-free perovskites, and more broadly validates the approach towards realizing lead-free alternative perovskite solar technologies.

Large exchange-driven intrinsic circular dichroism of a chiral 2D hybrid perovskite

Abstract In two-dimensional chiral metal-halide perovskites, chiral organic spacers endow structural and optical chirality to the metal-halide sublattice, enabling exquisite control of light, charge, and electron spin. The chiroptical properties of metal-halide perovskites have been measured by transmissive circular dichroism spectroscopy, which necessitates thin-film samples. Here, by developing a reflection-based approach, we characterize the intrinsic, circular polarization-dependent complex refractive index for a prototypical two-dimensional chiral lead-bromide perovskite and report large circular dichroism for single crystals. Comparison with ab initio theory reveals the large circular dichroism arises from the inorganic sublattice rather than the chiral ligand and is an excitonic phenomenon driven by electron-hole exchange interactions, which breaks the degeneracy of transitions between Rashba-Dresselhaus-split bands, resulting in a Cotton effect. Our study suggests that previous data for spin-coated films largely underestimate the optical chirality and provides quantitative insights into the intrinsic optical properties of chiral perovskites for chiroptical and spintronic applications.

0D and 2D: The Cases of Phenylethylammonium Tin Bromide Hybrids

Tin halide perovskites and perovskite-related materials have emerged as promising lead-free hybrid materials for various optoelectronic applications. While remarkable progress has been achieved in the development of organic tin halide hybrids with diverse structures and controlled dimensionalities at the molecular level, some controversial results that have been reported recently need to be addressed. For instance, different photophysical properties have been reported for two-dimensional (2D) (PEA) 2 SnBr 4 (PEA = phenylethylammonium) by several groups with distinct emission peaks at around 468 and 550 nm. Here we report our efforts in the synthesis of phenylethylammonium tin bromide hybrids with zero-dimensional (0D) and 2D structures, and characterizations of their structural and photophysical properties. 0D [(PEA) 4 SnBr 6 ][(PEA)Br] 2 [CCl 2 H 2 ] 2 was found to exhibit strong yellow emission peak at 566 nm with a photoluminescence quantum efficiency (PLQE) of ~90%, while 2D (PEA) 2 SnBr 4 had weak emission peak at 470 nm with a PLQE of <0.1%. Interestingly, 0D [(PEA) 4 SnBr 6 ][(PEA)Br] 2 [CCl 2 H 2 ] 2 can be converted into 2D (PEA) 2 SnBr 4 upon drying, which would return to 0D [(PEA) 4 SnBr 6 ][(PEA)Br] 2 [CCl 2 H 2 ] 2 upon addition of dichloromethane. Powder X-ray diffraction results confirmed the reversible transformation between 0D and 2D structures. Density functional theory calculations showed that excitons in 0D [(PEA) 4 SnBr 6 ][(PEA)Br] 2 [CCl 2 H 2 ] 2 are highly localized, resulting in a strongly Stokes shifted broadband emission, while delocalized electronic states in 2D (PEA) 2 SnBr 4 result in weaker exciton binding, a higher exciton mobility, and a higher nonradiative decay.

Structure-Property Relationships and Idiosyncrasies of Bulk, 2D Hybrid Lead Bromide Perovskites

Bulk, 2D hybrid lead bromide perovskites comprise a robust family of halide perovskites with a rich structural and photophysical chemistry witnessed thus far. In an attempt to boost focus on systematically charting the phase space of 2D lead bromide perovskites, it is timely and critical to review the structure-property relationships that are emerging in this family of materials. In this review, we assess the multitude of (100)-orientated lead bromide perovskites, as well as the idiosyncratic (110)-orientated members. We examine the underpopulated phase space of bulk, thick-layer (n>1) lead bromide perovskites, highlighting several examples of structures violating Goldschmidt's tolerance factor with large organic spacers in the cuboctahedral perovskite cages. The narrow and broadband emission is discussed, along with the developed optoelectronic profile of bulk, lead bromide perovskites, as yet. Lastly, we summarize the integration of 2D lead bromide perovskites in optoelectronic devices.

Two Spacers, One Perovskite: Integrating Ruddlesden–Popper and Dion–Jacobson Halide Perovskites

Hybrid organic–inorganic perovskites are a rapidly developing class of materials due to their desirable properties for optoelectronic applications such as their ease of synthesis, solution-processable film formation, tunable band gap, strong photoluminescence, good charge carrier mobilities, and high defect tolerance. Here, we present a novel 2D perovskite motif that seamlessly integrates the structural elements from both Ruddlesden–Popper and Dion–Jacobson halide perovskites. We demonstrate the incorporation of two different organic spacer cations in an ordered manner in 5 novel 2D perovskite iodide materials. Both a cyclic diammonium cation 3-(aminomethyl)piperidinium (3AMP) and a linear alkyl monoammonium cation (Cn = C n H 2n+4 N, n = 4–8) are present in distinct alternating layers, making the new series (Cn) 2 (3AMP)[PbI 4 ] 2 . The crystallization of these materials was optimized through careful temperature control to obtain precise crystal structures via single-crystal X-ray diffraction (XRD) which confirmed the presence of the two cations in distinct layers. The influence of the two spacers on optical properties including the band gaps and photoluminescence spectra are found to more closely resemble (3AMP)PbI 4 than (Cn) 2 PbI 4 , which can be attributed to the amount of distortion imposed by the 3AMP spacer on the lead iodide layers. The findings are supported by density functional theory calculations. The strong photoelectric response of solution-processed thin films shows the potential of these materials in photodetectors or photovoltaics. This unprecedented amalgamation of RP–DJ in (Cn) 2 (3AMP)[PbI 4 ] 2 in a structurally ordered fashion suggests a potential vastly underexplored phase space of 2D perovskites in which there are chemically different spacers in distinct layers of the structure, providing an additional parameter to tune perovskite properties.
