Abstract
All-inorganic halide perovskites are promising candidates for optoelectronic and photovoltaic devices because of their good thermal stability and remarkable optoelectronic properties. Among those properties, carrier transport properties are critical as they inherently dominate the device performance. The transport properties of perovskites have been widely studied at room and lower temperatures, but their high-temperature (i.e., tens of degrees above room temperature) characteristics are not fully understood. Here, the photoexcitation diffusion is optically visualized by transient photoluminescence microscopy (TPLM), through which the temperature-dependent transport characteristics from room temperature to 80 °C are studied in all-inorganic CsPbBr3 single-crystalline microplates. We reveal the decreasing trend of diffusion coefficient and the almost unchanged trend of diffusion length when heating the sample to high temperature. The phonon scattering in combination with the variation of effective mass is proposed for the explanation of the temperature-dependent diffusion behavior.
