Electron band tuning of organolead halide perovskite materials by methylammonium and formamidinium halide post-treatment for high-efficiency solar cells†
Abstract
Perovskite crystals post-treated with methylammonium and formamidinium halide materials were compared. The bandgap energy of perovskites changed upon incorporation of CH5N2+, Br−, and Cl− ions. Perovskites treated with formamidinium iodide yielded the best efficiency of 20.06% due to an increase in photocurrent density by decreased bandgap energy.
