文摘The formation of Frohlich polarons in metal halide perovskites,arising from the charge carrier-longitudinal optical(LO)phonon coupling,has been proposed to explain their exceptional properties,but the effective identification of polarons in these materials is still a challenging task.Herein,we theoretically present the infrared optical absorption of Frohlich polarons based on the Huang-Rhys model.We find that multiphonon overtones appear as the energy of the incident photons matches the multiple LO phonons,wherein the average phonon number of a polaron can be directly evaluated by the order of the strongest overtone.These multiphonon structures sensitively depend on the scale of electronic distribution in the ground state and the dimensionality of the perovskite materials,revealing the effective modulation of competing processes between polaron formation and carrier cooling.Moreover,the order of the strongest overtone shifts to higher ones with temperature,providing a potential proof that the carrier mobility is affected by LO phonon scattering.The present model not only suggests a direct way to verify Frohlich polarons but also enriches our understanding of the properties of polarons in metal halide perovskites.
文摘Organic-inorganic halides perovskites(OHPs)have drawn the attention of many researchers owing to their astonishing and unique optoelectronic properties.They have been extensively used for photovoltaic applications,achieving higher than 26%power conversion efficiency to date.These materials have potential to be deployed for many other applications beyond photovoltaics like photodetectors,sensors,light-emitting diodes(LEDs),and resistors.To address the looming challenge of Moore’s law and the Von Neumann bottleneck,many new technologies regarding the computation of architectures and storage of information are being extensively researched.Since the discovery of the memristor as a fourth component of the circuit,many materials are explored for memristive applications.Lately,researchers have advanced the exploration of OHPs for memristive applications.These materials possess promising memristive properties and various kinds of halide perovskites have been used for different applications that are not only limited to data storage but expand towards artificial synapses,and neuromorphic computing.Herein we summarize the recent advancements of OHPs for memristive applications,their unique electronic properties,fabrication of materials,and current progress in this field with some future perspectives and outlooks.
