Abstract
Ion-mixing is a highly effective strategy for tuning the performance and stability of photovoltaic devices based on hybrid perovskites. Despite many works concentrating on the A- and X-site mixing effects, a comprehensive study on the effects of B-site mixing on the structural and dynamic properties of MA-based perovskites is still absent. In this work, we investigate the structural and dynamic properties of mixed lead–tin halide perovskites MAPb1–xSnxBr3 using a multitechnique experimental approach including differential scanning calorimetry, dielectric spectroscopy, and nuclear quadrupole resonance experiments. We map the phase diagram of this system, which reveals that B-site mixing slightly stabilizes the cubic phase and affects the MA cation dynamics and ordering, although the observed effects are less prominent compared with A- and X-site mixing. Our results provide insights into the complex interplay of structural and dynamic properties in mixed-metal perovskites contributing to their potential optimization for photovoltaic applications.
期刊介绍:
The journal Chemistry of Materials focuses on publishing original research at the intersection of materials science and chemistry. The studies published in the journal involve chemistry as a prominent component and explore topics such as the design, synthesis, characterization, processing, understanding, and application of functional or potentially functional materials. The journal covers various areas of interest, including inorganic and organic solid-state chemistry, nanomaterials, biomaterials, thin films and polymers, and composite/hybrid materials. The journal particularly seeks papers that highlight the creation or development of innovative materials with novel optical, electrical, magnetic, catalytic, or mechanical properties. It is essential that manuscripts on these topics have a primary focus on the chemistry of materials and represent a significant advancement compared to prior research. Before external reviews are sought, submitted manuscripts undergo a review process by a minimum of two editors to ensure their appropriateness for the journal and the presence of sufficient evidence of a significant advance that will be of broad interest to the materials chemistry community.
