First-principles calculations of iodine-related point defects in CsPbI3

Joachim Maier, Alessandro Senocrate

We present here first principles hybrid functional calculations of the atomic and electronic structure of several iodine-related point defects in CsPbI3, a material relevant for photovoltaic applications. We show that the presence of neutral interstitial I ...

Hill climbing hysteresis of perovskite-based solar cells: a maximum power point tracking investigation

Michael Graetzel, Shaik Mohammed Zakeeruddin, Mohammad Ibrahim Dar, Fabrizio Giordano, Norman Pellet, Joachim Maier

The surge of the power conversion efficiency of metal halide lead perovskite solar cells comes with concerns, such as the long-term ecotoxicity of lead compounds, their sensitivity toward moisture and oxygen, or the scarcity of some of their components. Mo ...

Transforming Hybrid Organic Inorganic Perovskites by Rapid Halide Exchange

Michael Graetzel, Joël Teuscher, Norman Pellet, Joachim Maier

We report on rapid halide exchange in metal halide perovskite of the general formula MAPbX(3) (X = Cl, Br, or I). We find that when the perovskite is infiltrated in a mesoscopic scaffold, halide substitution on the perovskite lattice is strikingly fast, be ...

The Role of Alkyl Chain Length and Halide Counter Ion in Layered Dion−Jacobson Perovskites with Aromatic Spacers

Michael Graetzel, Jacques-Edouard Moser, Jovana Milic, Joachim Maier, Michael Allan Hope, George Cameron Fish, Algirdas Ducinskas

Layered hybrid perovskites based on Dion−Jacobson phases are of interest to various optoelectronic applications. However, the understanding of their structure−property relationships remains limited. Here, we present a systematic study of Dion−Jacobson pero ...

Proof-of-concept for facile perovskite solar cell recycling

Ulf Anders Hagfeldt, Fabrizio Giordano, Norman Pellet, Joachim Maier, Jeannette Medina Kadro, Othmar Müntener

Perovskite solar cells based on CH3NH3PbI3 and related materials have reached impressive efficiencies that, on a lab scale, can compete with established solar cell technologies, at least in short-term observations. Despite frequently voiced concerns about ...

Slow CH3NH3+ Diffusion in CH3NH3PbI3 under Light Measured by Solid-State NMR and Tracer Diffusion

Michael Graetzel, Joachim Maier, Alessandro Senocrate

We investigate methylammonium (MA) transport in MA lead iodide under illumination and show this, as in the dark, to be measurable but negligible when compared with the major carriers. H-1 and C-13 nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectra show constant line ...

Thermochemical Stability of Hybrid Halide Perovskites

Michael Graetzel, Joachim Maier, Alessandro Senocrate

This contribution discusses the chemical stability of methylammonium (MA) halide perovskites (MAPbI(3), MAPbBr(3), and MAPbCl(3)); it considers degradation processes relevant for devices (vs T, O-2, H2O, voltage, illumination) by outlining their thermodyna ...
