Rapid Decoherence Suppresses Charge Recombination in Multi-Layer 2D Halide Perovskites: Time-Domain Ab Initio Analysis.
Nano Letters 2018 April 12
Two-dimensional (2D) Ruddlesden-Popper halide perovskites are appealing candidates for optoelectronics and photovoltaics. Nonradiative electron-hole recombination constitutes a major pathway for charge and energy losses in these materials. Surprisingly, experimental recombination is slower in multilayers than a monolayer, even though multilayer systems have smaller energy gaps and higher frequency phonons that should accelerate the recombination. Focusing on (BA)2 (MA) n-1 Pb n I3 n+1 with n = 1 and 3, BA = CH3 (CH2 )3 NH3 , and MA = CH3 NH3 , we show that it is the enhancement of elastic electron-phonon scattering that suppresses charge recombination for n = 3, by causing rapid loss of electronic coherence. The scattering is enhanced in the multilayer 2D perovskites because, in contrast to the monolayer, they contain MA cations embedded into the inorganic Pb-I lattice. Although MAs do not contribute directly to electron and hole wave functions, they perturb the Pb-I lattice and create strong electric fields that interact with the charges. The rapid loss of coherence explains long excited state lifetimes that extend into nanoseconds. Both electron-hole recombination and coherence times show excellent agreement with the corresponding lifetime and line width measurements. The simulations rationalize the observed dependence of excited state lifetime in 2D layered halide perovskites on layer thickness and advance our understanding of the atomistic mechanisms underlying charge-phonon dynamics in nanoscale materials.
