  7. Jarvist Moore Frost (University of Bath, UK) EMCS - 2016

    September Meeting Thurs 8th Sept 2016 Why is solution processed MAPI (disorder) an efficient solar cell? ◆ Almost absent non-radiative recombination ◦ Few mid gap defects (fortitude? Linked to the negative deformation potential?) ◆ Slow radiative recombination • Unusual for a direct gap material • ? Slightly-indirect gap due to Rashba splitting • ? Electrostatic potential fluctuations reduce recombination ◆ Sufficient mobility to get charges out • But not that high considering effective mass (~50 cm2/Vs vs. 1000 cm2/Vs for CdTe) ◦ ? Reduced by electrostatic fluct?

  33. Jarvist Moore Frost (University of Bath, UK) EMCS - 2016

    September Meeting Thurs 8th Sept 2016 “The previous methods for calculating the electron-phonon matrix element in a metal are neither rigorously formulated nor satisfactory in their results. From each method there is something to learn—usually that the method is unreliable in some important aspect.” Ziman, 1960 ‘Electrons and Phonons’, § 5.7, page 197. MAPI soft modes • Soft modes at R and M Brillouin-Zone boundaries • Mode following for potential energy surface → 1D Sch. Eqn. solver → Nuclear p.d.f → mean-field temperature resolved el-ph coupling for soft modes • Values of ~35 meV per mode seem to agree with experimental linewidths

  35. Jarvist Moore Frost (University of Bath, UK) EMCS - 2016

    September Meeting Thurs 8th Sept 2016 Absorption: Spin-orbit-coupling flattens the valence band - leading to a large density of states available for direct excitation. A sudden “turn-on”, like 2D band structures. Emission: Holes and electrons quickly thermalise to bottom of band (densities at 1 sun solar flux are very low); indirect radiative recombination is slow. → Have your cake and eat it ← Why MAPI is so great (spin split indirect gap): The Dresselhaus crystal field effect splits the CBM (more than VBM); a spin split indirect gap forms. 75 meV P. Azarhoosh et al., ArXiv 1604.04500 (2016)
  36. Jarvist Moore Frost (University of Bath, UK) EMCS - 2016

    September Meeting Thurs 8th Sept 2016 Spin-split indirect-gap: 75 meV Biggest contribution where Xi(r) is large, near the Pb (Z=82) nucleus. Driven by the crystal (electric) field. Weaker effect at I (Z=53) on 5p-orbital, flattens bands. → Electric field at nucleus

    September Meeting Thurs 8th Sept 2016 Effect of disorder: x100 MD disorder → Rashba split increases Suggests Pb-I distortion is main crystal field over Pb(6p).
  41. Jarvist Moore Frost (University of Bath, UK) EMCS - 2016

    September Meeting Thurs 8th Sept 2016 Predictions: Spin-split indirect-gap leads to 300 X decrease in bi-molecular recombination. Weak indirect gap ~75 meV below direct; should not be present in Orthorhombic phase (<150K). B coeff. varies strongly as a function of intensity (you can't do a 'global fit' to TRPL data over many decades) Faster recombination expected in Sn analogue due to reduced Spin Orbit Coupling - it should be more direct gap like. Lasing threshold can be directly explained by intensity dependence of B. Epitaxial / ferroelectric manipulation should affect optical properties. Spin split indirect gap → may be a new design feature for novel solar cell materials. Present where {Sb,Bi,Pb} + ferroelectric distortion. P. Azarhoosh et al., ArXiv 1604.04500 (2016)

  56. Jarvist Moore Frost (University of Bath, UK) EMCS - 2016

    September Meeting Thurs 8th Sept 2016 Recombination vs. Mobility ? This is structureless disorder (just density of states), using models more suitable from low mobility materials (from amorphous silicon). At 300 K the reduction in recombination (x 100) due to charge segregation is balanced by an estimate of the reduction in mobility (x 100) caused by trapping / detrapping. Further work will look at structure and see whether 'ferroelectric highways' allow for greater mobility than expected of Gaussian Disorder Model.
  57. Jarvist Moore Frost (University of Bath, UK) EMCS - 2016

    September Meeting Thurs 8th Sept 2016 Starrynight Conclusions ➔ Ground state dependent on details of Hamiltonian terms. Our errors here could be +-200%. ➔ We observe exponentially decaying long range partial ferroelectric ordering. ➔ Continuous inter-converting domains at finite temperature. ➔ Considerable (+-150 meV) electrostatic potential fluctuations.
