Organic-inorganic hybrid perovskites are considered to be most promising photovoltaic materials. Highest efficiencies of perovskite solar cells have been achieved by using appropriate cation and anion mixtures. Mixed perovskite solar cells also show an improved stability. For both performance as well as stability, experimental information on electronic and ionic charge carriers is key, an information that so far has only been provided for methylammonium lead iodide; there we also found that light can enhance not only electronic but also ionic conductivities by more than one order of magnitude. We also proposed a mechanism for this surprising photo-ionic effect and explained its impact on photo-decomposition. Here we quantitatively deconvolute ionic and electronic transport properties for the practically relevant substitutions and mixtures. Specifically, we investigate various cation and anion substitutions (Cs; FA; Br) with a special eye on their photo-ionic effect. The results are not only of importance for light-induced degradation but also for light-induced demixing. As far as the photo-ionic effect is concerned, we find that the choice of the halide is of crucial importance, while the cationic substitutions are less relevant. The huge ionic conductivity enhancement found for iodide perovskites, is weakened by bromide substitution and eventually becomes insignificant for the pure bromide. Based on these experimental results, we provide a rationale for the experimentally observed photo-demixing.

Two-dimensional (2D) halide perovskites feature a versatile structure, which not only enables the fine-tuning of their optoelectronic properties but also makes them appealing as model systems to investigate the fundamental properties of hybrid perovs
kites. In this study, we analyzed the changes in the optical absorption of 2D Dion-Jacobson mixed halide perovskite thin films (encapsulated) based on (PDMA)Pb(I0.5Br0.5)4 (PDMA: 1,4-phenylenedimethanammonium spacer) exposed to a constant illumination. We demonstrate that these 2D mixed-halide perovskites undergo photo de-mixing with direct transformation from the pristine phase to the de-mixed phases. Almost complete re-mixing of these phases occurs when the sample is left in the dark, showing that the process is reversible in terms of optical properties. On the other hand, exposure to light appears to induce structural changes in the thin film that are not reversible in the dark. We have further investigated temperature-dependent absorption measurements under light to extract the photo de-mixed compositions and to map the photo-miscibility-gap. This work thereby reveals that photo de-mixing occurs in Dion-Jacobson two-dimensional hybrid perovskites and provides strategies to address the role of light in the thermodynamic properties of these materials.
Hybrid halide perovskite semiconductors exhibit complex, dynamical disorder while also harboring properties ideal for optoelectronic applications that include photovoltaics. However, these materials are structurally and compositionally distinct from
traditional compound semiconductors composed of tetrahedrally-coordinated elements with an average valence electron count of silicon. As discussed here, the additional dynamic degrees of freedom of hybrid halide perovskites underlie many of their potentially transformative physical properties. Neutron scattering and spectroscopy studies of the atomic dynamics of these materials have yielded significant insights to the functional properties. Specifically, inelastic neutron scattering has been used to elucidate the phonon band structure, and quasi-elastic neutron scattering (QENS) has revealed the nature of the uncorrelated dynamics pertaining to molecular reorientations. Understanding the dynamics of these complex semiconductors has elucidated the temperature-dependent phase stability and origins of the defect-tolerant electronic transport from the highly polarizable dielectric response. Furthermore, the dynamic degrees of freedom of the hybrid perovskites provides additional opportunities for application engineering and innovation.
Mixing iodide and bromide in halide perovskite semiconductors is an effective strategy to tune their bandgap, therefore mixed-halide perovskites hold great promise for color-tunable LEDs and tandem solar cells. However, the bandgap of mixed-halide pe
rovskites is unstable under (sun-)light, since the halides segregate into domains of different bandgaps. Using pressure-dependent ultrafast transient absorption spectroscopy, we show that high external pressure increases the range of thermodynamically stable halide mixing ratios. Chemical pressure, by inserting a smaller cation, has the same effect, which means that any iodide-to-bromide ratio can be thermodynamically stabilized by tuning the crystal volume and compressibility. We interpret this stabilization by an alteration of the Helmholtz free energy via the largely overlooked PdeltaV term.
The unprecedented rise in power conversion efficiency of solar cells based on metal halide perovskites (MHPs) has led to enormous research effort to understand their photo-physical properties. In this paper, we review the progress in understanding th
e mobility and recombination of photo-generated charge carriers from nanosecond to microsecond time scales, monitored using electrodeless transient photoconductivity techniques. In addition, we present a kinetic model to obtain rate constants from transient data recorded using a wide range of laser intensities. For various MHPs the temperature dependence of the mobilities and recombination rates are evaluated. Furthermore, we show how these rate constants can be used to predict the upper limit for the open-circuit voltage Voc of the corresponding device. Finally, we discuss photo-physical properties of MHPs that are not yet fully understood, and make recommendations for future research directions.
We have characterized the conductivity of carbon nanotubes (CNT) fibers enriched in semiconducting species as a function of temperature and pulsed laser irradiation of 266 nm wavelength. While at high temperatures the response approaches an Arrhenius
law behavior, from room temperature down to 4.2 K the response can be framed, quantitatively, within the predictions of the fluctuation induced tunneling which occurs between the inner fibrils (bundles) of the samples and/or the elementary CNTs constituting the fibers. Laser irradiation induces an enhancement of the conductivity, and analysis of the resulting data confirms the (exponential) dependence of the potential barrier upon temperature as expected from the fluctuation induced tunneling model. A thermal map of the experimental configuration consisting of laser-irradiated fibers is also obtained via COMSOL simulations in order to rule out bare heating phenomena as the background of our experiments.
