A universal hydrochloric acid-assistant powder-to-powder strategy for quick and mass preparation of lead-free perovskite microcrystals

ABSTRACT: Lead-free halide perovskite materials possess low toxicity, broadband luminescence and robust stability compared with conventional lead-based perovskites, thus holding great promise for eyes-friendly white light LEDs. However, the traditionally used preparation methods with a long period and limited product yield have curtailed the commercialization of these materials. Here we introduce a universal hydrochloric acid-assistant powder-to-powder strategy which can accomplish the goals of thermal-, pressure-free, eco-friendliness, short time, low cost and high product yield, simultaneously. The obtained Cs2Na0.9Ag0.1In0.95Bi0.05Cl6 microcrystals exhibit bright self-trapped excitons emission with quantum yield of (98.3 ± 3.8)%, which could retain (90.5 ± 1.3)% and (96.8 ± 0.8)% after continuous heating or ultraviolet-irradiation for 1000 h, respectively. The phosphor converted-LED exhibited near-unity conversion efficiency from ultraviolet chip to self-trapped excitons emission at ~200 mA. Various ions doping (such as Cs2Na0.9Ag0.1InCl6:Ln3+) and other derived lead-free perovskite materials (such as Cs2ZrCl6 and Cs4MnBi2Cl12) with high luminous performance are all realized by our proposed strategy, which has shown excellent availability towards commercialization. A general hydrochloric acid-assistant powder-to-powder strategy was proposed for preparing a series of lead-free perovskite microcrystals, meeting the needs of rapid preparation, mass production and remarkable fluorescent performance, simultaneously.

Formamidinium Lead Bromide (FAPbBr3) Perovskite Microcrystals for Sensitive and Fast Photodetectors.

Project description:Because of the good thermal stability and superior carrier transport characteristics of formamidinium lead trihalide perovskite HC(NH2)2PbX3 (FAPbX3), it has been considered to be a better optoelectronic material than conventional CH3NH3PbX3 (MAPbX3). Herein, we fabricated a FAPbBr3 microcrystal-based photodetector that exhibited a good responsivity of 4000 A W-1 and external quantum efficiency up to 106% under one-photon excitation, corresponding to the detectivity greater than 1014 Jones. The responsivity is two orders of magnitude higher than that of previously reported formamidinium perovskite photodetectors. Furthermore, the FAPbBr3 photodetector's responsivity to two-photon absorption with an 800-nm excitation source can reach 0.07 A W-1, which is four orders of magnitude higher than that of its MAPbBr3 counterparts. The response time of this photodetector is less than 1 ms. This study provides solid evidence that FAPbBr3 can be an excellent candidate for highly sensitive and fast photodetectors.

Direct Observation of Size-Dependent Phase Transition in Methylammonium Lead Bromide Perovskite Microcrystals and Nanocrystals.

Project description:Methylammonium (MA) lead halide perovskites have been widely studied as active materials for advanced optoelectronics. As crystalline semiconductor materials, their properties are strongly affected by their crystal structure. Depending on their applications, the size of MA lead halide perovskite crystals varies by several orders of magnitude. The particle size can lead to different structural phase transitions and optoelectronic properties. Herein, we investigate the size effect for phase transition of MA lead bromide (MAPbBr3) by comparing the temperature-dependent neutron powder diffraction patterns of microcrystals and nanocrystals. The orthorhombic-to-tetragonal phase transition occurs in MAPbBr3 microcrystals within the temperature range from 100 to 310 K. However, the phase transition is absent in nanocrystals in this temperature range. In this work, we offer a persuasive and direct evidence of the relationship between the particle size and the phase transition in perovskite crystals.

Microwave-Assisted Preparation of Organo-Lead Halide Perovskite Single Crystals.

Project description:The efficiency of organo-lead halide perovskite-based optoelectronic devices is dramatically lower for amorphous materials compared to highly crystalline ones. Therefore, it is challenging to optimize and scale up the production of large-sized single crystals of perovskite materials. Here, we describe a novel and original approach to preparing lead halide perovskite single crystals by applying microwave radiation during the crystallization. The microwave radiation primarily causes precise heating control in the whole volume and avoids temperature fluctuations. Moreover, this facile microwave-assisted method of preparation is highly reproducible and fully automated, it and can be applied for various different perovskite structures. In addition, this cost-effective method is expected to be easily scalable because of its versatility and low energy consumption. The crystallization process has low heat losses; therefore, only a low microwave reactor power of 8-15 W during the temperature changes and of less than 1 W during the temperature holding is needed.

Spin-polarized lasing in manganese doped perovskite microcrystals.

Project description:Spin-polarized lasers have demonstrated many superiorities over conventional lasers in both performance and functionalities. Hybrid organic-inorganic perovskites are emerging spintronic materials with great potential for advancing spin-polarized laser technology. However, the rapid carrier spin relaxation process in hybrid perovskites presents a major bottleneck for spin-polarized lasing. Here we report the identification and successful suppression of the spin relaxation mechanism in perovskites for the experimental realization of spin-polarized perovskite lasers. The electron-hole exchange interaction is identified as the decisive spin relaxation mechanism hindering the realization of spin-polarized lasing in perovskite microcrystals. An ion doping strategy is employed accordingly to introduce a new energy level in perovskites, which enables a long carrier spin lifetime by suppressing the electron-hole exchange interaction. As a result, spin-polarized lasing is achieved in the doped perovskite microcrystals. Moreover, the doped cation is a magnetic species allowing for the magnetic field control of the spin-polarized perovskite lasing. This work unlocks the potential of perovskites for spin-polarized lasers, providing guidance for the design of perovskites towards spintronic devices.

A universal ligand for lead coordination and tailored crystal growth in perovskite solar cells.

Project description:Chemical environment and precursor-coordinating molecular interactions within a perovskite precursor solution can lead to important implications in structural defects and crystallization kinetics of a perovskite film. Thus, the opto-electronic quality of such films can be boosted by carefully fine-tuning the coordination chemistry of perovskite precursors via controllable introduction of additives, capable of forming intermediate complexes. In this work, we employed a new type of ligand, namely 1-phenylguanidine (PGua), which coordinates strongly with the PbI2 complexes in the perovskite precursor, forming new intermediate species. These strong interactions effectively retard the perovskite crystallization process and form homogeneous films with enlarged grain sizes and reduced density of defects. In combination with an interfacial treatment, the resulted champion devices exhibit a 24.6% efficiency with outstanding operational stability. Unprecedently, PGua can be applied in various PSCs with different perovskite compositions and even in both configurations: n-i-p and p-i-n, highlighting the universality of this ligand.

Enhanced photocatalytic activity and mechanism insight of copper-modulated lead-free Cs2AgSbCl6 double perovskite microcrystals.

Project description:Lead halide perovskites are prospective candidates for CO2 photoconversion. Herein, we report copper-doped lead-free Cs2AgSbCl6 double perovskite microcrystals (MCs) for gas-solid phase photocatalytic CO2 reduction. The 0.2Cu@Cs2AgSbCl6 double perovskite MCs display unprecedented CO2 photoreduction capability with CO and CH4 yields of 412 and 128 μmol g-1, respectively. The ultrafast transient absorption spectroscopy reveals the enhanced separation of photoexcited carriers in copper-doped Cs2AgSbCl6 MCs. The active sites and reaction intermediates on the surface of the doped Cs2AgSbCl6 are dynamically monitored and precisely unraveled based on the in-situ Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy investigation. In combination with density functional theory calculations, it is revealed that the copper-doped Cs2AgSbCl6 MCs facilitate sturdy CO2 adsorption and activation and strikingly enhance the photocatalytic performance. This work offers an in-depth interpretation of the photocatalytic mechanism of Cs2AgSbCl6 doped with copper, which may provide guidance for future design of high-performance photocatalysts for solar fuel production.

Synthesis of Hybrid Tin-Based Perovskite Microcrystals for LED Applications.

Project description:Considerable focus on tin-based perovskites lies on substitution to leadhalide perovskites for the fabrication of eco-friendly optoelectronic devices. The major concern related to tin-based perovskite devices are mainly the stability and the efficiency. However, thinking on the final commercialization scope, other considerations such as precursor stability and cost are major factors to carry about. In this regard, this work presents a robust and facile synthesis of 2D A2SnX4 (A = 4-fluorophenethylammonium(4-FPEA); X = I, Br, I/Br) and 3D FASnI3 perovskite microcrystals following a developed synthesis strategy with low-cost starting materials. In this developed methodology, acetic acid is used as a solvent, which helps to protect from water by making a hydrophobic network over the perovskite surface, and hence provides sufficient ambient and long-term inert atmosphere stability of the microcrystals. Further, the microcrystals are recrystallized in thin films for LED application, allowing the fabrication of orange, near-infrared and purered emitting LEDs. The two-step recrystallized devices show better performance and stability in comparison to the reference devices made by using commercial precursors. Importantly, the developed synthesis methodology is defined as a generic method for the preparation of varieties of hybrid tin-based perovskites microcrystals and application in optoelectronic devices.

Universal Preparation Strategy for Ultradurable Antibacterial Fabrics through Coating an Adhesive Nanosilver Glue.

Project description:Microbiological protection textile materials played an important role in the battle against the epidemic. However, the traditional active antimicrobial treatment of textiles suffers from narrow textile applicability, low chemical stability, and poor washability. Here, a high-strength adhesive nanosilver glue was synthesized by introducing nontoxic water-soluble polyurethane glue as a protectant. The as-prepared nanosilver glue could adhere firmly to the fiber surfaces by forming a flexible polymer film and could encapsulate nanosilver inside the glue. The as-prepared nanosilver had a torispherical structure with diameter of ~22 nm, zeta potential of -42.7 mV, and good dispersibility in water, and it could be stored for one year. Further studies indicated that the nanosilver glue had wide applicability to the main fabric species, such as cotton and polyester fabric, surgical mask, latex paint, and wood paint. The antimicrobial cotton and polyester fabrics were prepared by a simple impregnation-padding-baking process. The corresponding antimicrobial activity was positively correlated with nanosilver content. The treated fabrics (500 mg/kg) exhibited ultrahigh washing resistance (maintained over 99% antibacterial rates for 100 times of standard washing) and wear resistance (99% antibacterial rates for 8000 times of standard wearing), equivalent breathability to untreated fabric, improved mechanical properties, and good flexibility, demonstrating a potential in cleanable and reusable microbiological protection textiles.

A universal co-solvent dilution strategy enables facile and cost-effective fabrication of perovskite photovoltaics.

Project description:Cost management and toxic waste generation are two key issues that must be addressed before the commercialization of perovskite optoelectronic devices. We report a groundbreaking strategy for eco-friendly and cost-effective fabrication of highly efficient perovskite solar cells. This strategy involves the usage of a high volatility co-solvent, which dilutes perovskite precursors to a lower concentration (<0.5 M) while retaining similar film quality and device performance as a high concentration (>1.4 M) solution. More than 70% of toxic waste and material cost can be reduced. Mechanistic insights reveal ultra-rapid evaporation of the co-solvent together with beneficial alteration of the precursor colloidal chemistry upon dilution with co-solvent, which in-situ studies and theoretical simulations confirm. The co-solvent tuned precursor colloidal properties also contribute to the enhancement of the stability of precursor solution, which extends its processing window thus minimizing the waste. This strategy is universally successful across different perovskite compositions, and scales from small devices to large-scale modules using industrial spin-coating, potentially easing the lab-to-fab translation of perovskite technologies.
