Cesium-Incorporated Triple Cation Perovskites Deliver Fully Reversible and Stable Nanoscale Voltage Response
2019
Perovskite solar cellsthat incorporate small concentrations of Cs in their A-site have shown increased lifetime and improved device performance. Yet, the development of fully stable devices operating near the theoretical limit requires understanding how Cs influences
perovskites’ electrical properties at the nanoscale. Here, we determine how the chemical composition of three
perovskites(MAPbBr3, MAPbI3, and Cs-mixed) affects their short- and long-term voltage stabilities, with <50 nm spatial resolution. We map an anomalous irreversible electrical signature on MAPbBr3 at the mesoscale, resulting in local Voc variations of ∼400 mV, and in entire grains with negative contribution to the Voc. These measurements prove the necessity of high spatial resolution mapping to elucidate the fundamental limitations of this
emerging material. Conversely, we capture the fully reversible voltage response of Cs-mixed
perovskites, composed by Cs0.06(MA0.17FA0.83)0.94Pb(I0.83Br0.17)3, demonstrating that the desired electri...
