Journal ArticleDOI

Relativistic origin of slow electron-hole recombination in hybrid halide perovskite solar cells

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors show that slow recombination originates from a spin-split indirect gap, which shifts band-edges to inequivalent wavevectors, making the fundamental gap indirect.
Journal ArticleDOI

Research Update: Relativistic origin of slow electron-hole recombination in hybrid halide perovskite solar cells

TL;DR: In this article, the authors show that slow recombination originates from a spin-split indirect gap, which shifts band-edges to inequivalent wavevectors, making the fundamental gap indirect.
Journal ArticleDOI

Origin of Pronounced Nonlinear Band Gap Behavior in Lead-Tin Hybrid Perovskite Alloys

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used electronic structure calculations at different levels of theory (density functional theory (DFT), hybrid DFT, and QSGW, with and without spin-orbit interactions) to investigate the presently elusive origin of this effect.
Journal ArticleDOI

Quantitative Design of Bright Fluorophores and AIEgens by the Accurate Prediction of Twisted Intramolecular Charge Transfer (TICT)

TL;DR: Based on a comprehensive comparison of various representative exchange-correlation functionals and solvent formalisms, a reliable and generalizable computational approach is established for modeling TICT formations of popular organic fluorophores with time-dependent density functional theory (TD-DFT).
Journal ArticleDOI

Interactions between molecules and perovskites in halide perovskite solar cells

TL;DR: In this article, the molecular adsorption at three types of perovskite interfaces have been discussed, with a focus on their structural aspects and recent progresses on the molecular adorption approach, by surveying newly reported adsorbate molecules forming halogen bonds, hydrogen bonds, Lewis acid-base pairs and other interactions with the halide perovsite surface/interface.
