Crystal-Size-Induced Band Gap Tuning in Perovskite Films

Michael Graetzel, Wolfgang Richard Tress, Simone Meloni, Amita Ummadisingu

A comprehensive picture explaining the effect of the crystal size in metal halide perovskite films on their opto-electronic characteristics is currently lacking. We report that perovskite nanocrystallites exhibit a wider band gap due to concurrent quantum ...

A chain is as strong as its weakest link - Stability study of MAPbI(3) under light and temperature

Michael Graetzel, Ulf Anders Hagfeldt, Michael Saliba, Pankaj Kumar Yadav, Amita Ummadisingu, Silver Hamill Turren Cruz, Philippe Jürgen Holzhey

The stability of perovskite solar cells is a key issue for industrial development. One reason for this is the volatile organic methylammonium (MA) cation, which is prone to degas under elevated temperatures from the perovskite. At the same time, small amou ...
