Unbalanced Hole and Electron Diffusion in Lead Bromide Perovskites.
Nano Letters 2017 March 9
We use scanning photocurrent microscopy and time-resolved microwave conductivity to measure the diffusion of holes and electrons in a series of lead bromide perovskite single crystals, APbBr3 , with A = methylammonium (MA), formamidinium (FA), and Cs. We find that the diffusion length of holes (LD h+ ∼ 10-50 μm) is on average an order of magnitude longer than that of electrons (LD e- ∼ 1-5 μm), regardless of the A-type cation or applied bias. Furthermore, we observe a weak dependence of LD across the A-cation series MA > FA > Cs. When considering the role of the halide, we find that the diffusion of holes in MAPbBr3 is comparable to that in MAPbI3 , but the electron diffusion length is up to five times shorter. This study shows that the disparity between hole and electron diffusion is a ubiquitous feature of lead halide perovskites. As with organic photovoltaics, this imbalance will likely become an important consideration in the optimization of lead halide perovskite solar cells.
