Abstract

Abstract2D lead halide perovskites with tunable optoelectronic properties through modulating inorganic components and organic spacer ligands represent a promising candidate in perovskite optoelectronics. However, an intrinsic soft lattice of perovskites gives rise to a vacancy‐mediated halide ion migration, which further affects the long‐term stability of materials as well as devices. Here, halide ion mobility is evaluated using two different 2D perovskites yielded with butylammonium (BA) for the Ruddlesden–Popper (RP) phase and butane‐1,4‐diamine (BDA) for the Dion–Jacobson (DJ) phase, respectively. By probing the halide ion migration kinetics in the physically paired 2D bromide and iodide perovskite films, the softer lattice (RP) shows a lower activation energy of 50.9 kJ mol−1 as compared to that of more rigid lattice (DJ) of 60.8 kJ mol−1. Given similar halide diffusion pathlength and halide mixing chemical potential, the binding mode (RP and DJ) can indeed dictate the overall halide ion stability. Understanding such halide ion mobility is important in designing perovskites with increased stability and performances at material and device levels.
