Probing femtosecond lattice displacement upon photo-carrier generation in lead halide perovskite

by Giovanni Batignani

Probing femtosecond lattice displacement upon photo-carrier generation in lead halide perovskite

Probing femtosecond lattice displacement upon photo-carrier generation in lead halide perovskite, Published online: 17 May 2018; doi:10.1038/s41467-018-04367-6

The electron–phonon coupling is the key to understand optoelectronic properties in lead halide perovskites but it is difficult to probe. Here Batignani et al. observe two new phonon modes with impulsive vibrational spectroscopy providing the evidence of the polaronic nature of the photo-excitation.

Design principles for electronic charge transport in solution-processed vertically stacked 2D perovskite quantum wells

Design principles for electronic charge transport in solution-processed vertically stacked 2D perovskite quantum wells, Published online: 30 May 2018; doi:10.1038/s41467-018-04430-2

Solution-processed two-dimensional perovskite quantum-well-based optoelectronic devices have attracted great research interest but their electrical transport is poorly understood. Tsai et al. reveal that the potential barriers of the quantum wells dominate the transport properties in solar cell devices.
