Light-activated interlayer contraction in 2D perovskites for high-efficiency solar cells

 
 

Correlated charge transport, structural, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and photovoltaic measurements confirm that the onset of the light-induced contraction triggered by hole accumulation is synchronized to a three-fold increase in carrier mobility and conductivity, which is consistent with an increase in the electronic band-dispersion predicted by first principles calculations. Flux dependent space charge limited current measurement reveals that light-induced interlayer contraction activates interlayer charge transport, through a percolation mechanism. The enhanced charge transport boosts the photovoltaic efficiency of 2D perovskite solar cells up to 18.3%.
