Abstract

This paper presents the results of pressure-effects on performance characteristics of near-infra-red perovskite light emitting diodes (PeLEDs) using a combination of experimental and analytical/computational approaches. First, pressure-effects are studied using models that consider the deformation and contacts that occur around interfacial impurities and interlayer surface roughness in PeLEDs. The predictions from the model show that the sizes of the interfacial defects decrease with increasing applied pressure. The current–voltage characteristics of the fabricated devices are also presented. These show that the PeLEDs have reduced turn-on voltages (from 2.5 V to 1.5 V) with the application of pressure. The associated pressure-induced reductions in the defect density and the bandgaps of the perovskite layer are then used to explain the improved performance characteristics of the PeLED devices.

Summary

Introduction

Organic–inorganic lead halide-based perovskite electronic materials have attracted significant attention in the recent years. This is due to the attractive optical and electrical performance of perovskite solar cells and perovskite light emitting diodes (PeLEDs).3–8Perovskite materials are attractive because they can be solution processed without any high temperature heating. They possess tunable optical bandgaps in the visible regime, which makes them promising materials for optoelectronic applications.5,11Several efforts have been made to improve the efficiency of the hybrid perovskite-based electronic systems. These include scitation.org/journal/adv film morphology, interface engineering, and modifications on methods of fabrication. Starting with the liquid electrolyte configurations of the organic–inorganic halides CH3NH3PbI3, the efficiency of 3.8% was presented for solar cells by Kojima et al.
