TL;DR: It is found that by using a non-halide lead source (lead acetate) instead of lead chloride or iodide, the perovskite crystal growth is much faster, which allows us to obtain ultrasmooth and almost pinhole-free perovSKite films by a simple one-step solution coating with only a few minutes annealing.

TL;DR: In situ X-ray scattering data is used to study isothermal transformations of perovskite films derived from chloride, iodide, nitrate, and acetate lead salts and suggests that careful choice of the lead salt will aid in controlling crystal growth, leading to superior films and better performing solar cells.
Journal ArticleDOI
Thermally induced structural evolution and performance of mesoporous block copolymer-directed alumina perovskite solar cells.

TL;DR: In situ grazing incidence wide-angle X-ray scattering and scanning electron microscopy are utilized to investigate the structural evolution and film morphologies of methylammonium lead tri-iodide/chloride in mesoporous block copolymer derived alumina superstructures during thermal annealing, demonstrating how understanding the processing parameters provides the foundation for optimal perovskite film morphology and coverage.
