Abstract
In recent years, halide perovskites have attracted much attention due to remarkable increase in associated solar cell efficiencies, which were achieved by processing high quality thin films. Here, even small differences in film morphology seem to be relevant for optimized optoelectronic functionality and stability. However, a detailed understanding of how small morphological differences in perovskite films affect related structural and optoelectronic properties has not yet been fully developed. Here, we investigate the influence of small morphology differences induced in MAPbI3 thin films by (hot-)pressing, characterized by small increase in crystallographic orientation and grain size, on the structural properties phase transition, defects and energetic disorder. To this end, we perform detailed analyses of temperature-dependent absorption and PL measurements between 300 K and 5 K. We use MAPbI3 thin films prepared by a completely dry processing approach, comprising film formation based on mechanochemically synthesized MAPbI3 powder via powder aerosol deposition method, followed by (hot-)pressing. The latter has emerged as an attractive method for manufacturing and post-treatment of perovskite films. Detailed temperature-dependent absorption and PL analyses reveal lower strain, decreased defect density and less energetic disorder in films with higher out-ofplane orientation and grain size. To resolve even small differences in static energetic disorder, suitable, powerful analysis methods of the Urbach energy are presented. Our results demonstrate the importance of considering even small morphology differences in halide perovskite films regarding related structural and optoelectronic film properties. The gained knowledge will facilitate identifying structural differences in halide perovskites to further optimize their functionality and stability.
