摘要:

钙钛矿具有优异的光学和电学性质, 近年来成为太阳能电池领域的研究热点. 大量实验报道钙钛矿热载流子弛豫时间变化顺序为CsPbBr3>MAPbBr3(MA=CH3NH3)>FAPbBr3[FA=HC(NH2)2], 但A位阳离子(Cs +, MA +, FA +)对弛豫快慢的影响机制仍不明确. 采用基于含时密度泛函理论的非绝热动力学方法研究了上述3种钙钛矿热电子和热空穴的能量弛豫动力学, 计算得到的热载流子弛豫时间与实验结果吻合. 结果表明, A位阳离子通过静电和氢键作用影响其与无机Pb—Br骨架的电子-振动耦合, 使非绝热耦合强度遵从FAPbBr3>MAPbBr3>CsPbBr3的变化趋势, 进而使热载流子弛豫时间尺度变化趋势与之相同, 表明合理选择A位阳离子可以优化钙钛矿太阳能电池的性能.

Abstract:

In recent years, perovskites have become a research hotspot in the field of solar cells due to their excellent optical and electrical properties. A large number of experiments reported that hot carries relaxation times follow the trend CsPbBr3>MAPbBr3(MA=CH3NH3)>FAPbBr3[FA=HC(NH2)2]. However, the underlying mechanism of the A-site cation(Cs +, MA +, FA +) effects on the relaxation time remains unclear, the hot electrons and holes relaxation of the three perovskiteswere investigated using time-domain density functional theory combined with nonadiabatic molecular dynamics. The obtained time scales agreed well with experiment. This is because A-site cation affects electronic-vibrational coupling with the inorganic Pb—Br framework via electrostatic interaction and hydrogen bond, leading to the strength of nonadiabatic coupling decreasing from FAPbBr3 to MAPbBr3, to CsPbBr3. As a result, the hot carrier relaxation times decreases as the same trend. The study suggests that rational choice of A-site cations provides an excellent strategy to the optimize the performance of perovskite solar cells.
