研究目的
Investigating the spatial and energetic distributions of trap states in metal halide perovskite solar cells to understand their impact on charge transport and recombination.
研究成果
The study revealed that deep traps are mainly located at the surface regions of perovskite single crystals and near the interfaces in polycrystalline films. The trap densities in polycrystalline films are significantly higher than in single crystals, limiting the efficiency of solar cells. Surface passivation and reducing interface trap densities are crucial for improving device performance.
研究不足
The study is limited by the resolution of the DLCP method, which can be compromised by the nonflat depletion interfaces caused by material roughness or heterogeneity. Additionally, the influence of ion migration in MHPs on DLCP measurements was a concern, though it was minimized by the experimental design.
1：Experimental Design and Method Selection:
The study utilized drive-level capacitance profiling (DLCP) to map the spatial and energetic distributions of trap states in perovskite solar cells. This method was chosen for its ability to provide well-characterized spatial distributions of carrier and trap densities in perovskites.
2：Sample Selection and Data Sources:
Perovskite single-crystalline and polycrystalline solar cells were synthesized and analyzed. The samples included MAPbI3 single crystals and polycrystalline thin films with various compositions.
3：List of Experimental Equipment and Materials:
The study used devices with structures such as ITO/PTAA/MAPbI3/C60/BCP/Cu for polycrystalline films and Au/MAPbI3/C60/BCP/Cu for single crystals. High-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HR-TEM) was used for structural analysis.
4：Experimental Procedures and Operational Workflow:
DLCP measurements were performed to determine the carrier and trap densities. The spatial distribution of trap states was mapped by varying the dc bias and ac frequency. Surface treatments and passivation techniques were applied to modify trap densities.
5：Data Analysis Methods:
The trap density was estimated by subtracting the free carrier density from the total carrier density. The energetic distribution of trap states was derived by tuning the frequency of the ac bias or temperature.
