Time-resolved photoluminescence studies of perovskite chalcogenides

Abstract

. We measure state-of-the-art single crystal samples, to identify properties free from the influence of secondary phases and random grain boundaries. We model and fit the data using a semiconductor physics simulation, to enable more direct determination of key material parameters than is possible with empirical data modeling. We find that both materials have Shockley-Read-Hall recombination lifetimes on the order of 50 ns and excited-state diffusion lengths on the order of 5 μm at room temperature, which bodes well for ambipolar device performance in optoelectronic technologies including thin-film solar cells.
