Abstract:
Ion-mixing is a highly effective strategy for tuning the performance and stability of photovoltaic devices based on hybrid perovskites. Despite many works concentrating on the A- and X-site mixing effects, a comprehensive study on the effects of B-site mixing on the structural and dynamic properties of MA-based perovskites is still absent. In this work, we investigate the structural and dynamic properties of mixed lead-tin halide perovskites MAPb1- Sn Br3 using a multitechnique experimental approach including differential scanning calorimetry, dielectric spectroscopy, and nuclear quadrupole resonance experiments. We map the phase diagram of this system, which reveals that B-site mixing slightly stabilizes the cubic phase and affects the MA cation dynamics and ordering, although the observed effects are less prominent compared with A- and X-site mixing. Our results provide insights into the complex interplay of structural and dynamic properties in mixed-metal perovskites contributing to their potential optimization for photovoltaic applications.

¹H NMR: Complex Splitting
Splitting diagrams or splitting tree diagrams are routinely used to depict such complex couplings. While drawing splitting diagrams, the splitting with the larger coupling constant is usually applied first.
Thermal Sigmatropic Reactions: Overview
Sigmatropic shifts are classified based on an order term [i, j ], where i and j indicate the number of atoms across which each end of the σ bond migrates. Below are examples of a [3,3] sigmatropic shift in 1,5-hexadiene, referred to as...
