Article Abstract

Twisted halide perovskite bilayers, a type of moiré material, show square moiré patterns with exciting optical properties. Atomic-scale structure analysis and its correlation with properties are difficult to achieve due to the extreme sensitivity of organic-inorganic halide perovskites to the illuminated electron beam in conventional/scanning transmission electron microscopy. Here, we developed a low-dose exit wave reconstruction methodology with a real-space resolution of one angstrom at ∼50 e/Å, which recovers the phase information on the moiré fringes in CHNHPbI (MAPbI) twisted perovskite bilayers at atomic scale, enabling detailed structural analysis of defects and corresponding strain distribution in such moiré materials. This work provides an atomic-level understanding of electron beam-sensitive twisted bilayer materials.

NiO is widely used for hole-transporting layers in p-i-n-type perovskite solar cells (PSCs) due to its stability, wide bandgap (≈3.5 eV), and solution processability. However, during solution processing, oxygen exposure can induce non-stoichiometry, forming Ni.

The intrinsic aggregation behavior of self-assembled molecules (SAMs) leads to severe heterogeneity or even blankness in the perovskite substrate layer. The direct contact between the bottom surface of perovskite and nickel oxide undergoes a redox reaction, which inevitably leads to perovskite degradation and strengthens the charge transport barrier. Herein, a 1-propenyl-2,3-dimethylimidazole hexafluorophosphate (PDMIMPF) molecule with bidirectional defect regulation has been developed.

As an interface engineering method for high-performance inverted perovskite solar cells (PSCs), self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) with hole-transport properties have been used to reduce energy losses at the hole-transport layer/perovskite interface. However, the application of -butyl carbazole-based SAMs has been limited by poor wettability of the perovskite precursor on the carbazole surface. To address this, a self-assembled bilayer (SAB) comprising a novel -butyl functionalized CBZC2 SAM and a conjugated polyelectrolyte wetting layer (PFN-Br) is proposed as the hole-transport layer (HTL) in CsI.

Inverted-type perovskite solar cells (-PSCs) have demonstrated superior power conversion efficiencies (PCEs). The bilayer of C60-SnO as an electron transport layer (ETL) is often used in -PSCs. It is known, however, that the interface is quite fragile mechanically under thermal cycling.

Tin-based perovskites, renowned for their eco-friendliness, intrinsic high hole mobility, and low effective mass, hold great potential for p-type thin-film transistors (TFTs). However, their propensity for rapid crystallization and oxidation severely limits stability and carrier mobility. Here, we strategically enhance perovskite TFT performance by incorporating 2-thiopheneethylamine thiocyanate (TEASCN) into 3D tin-based perovskites.
