Mixing precursors of lead(ii) polymers with those of lead bromide-based nanoparticles (CH3NH3PbBr3 perovskites or PbBr2), at room temperature and in the presence of cyclohexanemethylammonium bromide, generated colloidal nanocomposites which, when deposited on a hydrophobic surface led to long, one-dimensional, ordered and well-defined architectures. ispartof: CHEMICAL COMMUNICATIONS vol:55 issue:20 pages:2968-2971 ispartof: location:England status: published

Pulsed laser deposition of Sr2FeMoO6 thin films

2005

Abstract The effect of various deposition conditions and after-growth protocols on the magnetic and transport properties of Sr 2 FeMoO 6 films has been explored. It is found that the saturation magnetization and the magnetoresistance (MR) are dominated by the degree of cationic order, and the strain effects are clearly evidenced in a lower T C . The after-growth annealing of the films and the deposition of a buffer layer has been found to relax the film strains. This translates into a clear increase of the measured low-field magnetoresistance ratios.

Microstructure and Mechanical Properties of High-Pressure LixNa1-xTayNb1-yO3Solid Solution Perovskite Ceramics

2012

The effects of the temperature of synthesis and component concentration on microstructure of high-pressure LixNa1-xTayNb1-yO3 solid solution perovskite ceramics (х = 0.12, 0.17; у = 0; у ≥ 0.5) were studied. Original results of elastic properties of high-pressure LixNa1-xTayNb1-yO3 (х = 0.17; 0 ≤ у ≤ 0.5) solid solutions measured by contact probe techniques are reported. The observed decrease of the modulus of elasticity with increasing the sintering temperature of Li0,17Na0,83TayNb1-yO3 solid solutions is assumed to be related to conditions of re-crystallisation of disordered solid solutions at synthesis under high pressure.

First-principles calculations of perovskite thin films

2002

Abstract The results of the electronic structure calculations for different surface terminations of SrTiO3 (1 0 0) perovskite thin films are discussed. These calculations are based on ab initio Hartree–Fock method with a posteriori electron correlation corrections and density functional theory with a number of different exchange-correlation functionals, including hybrid (B3PW, B3LYP) exchange techniques. Results are compared with previous ab initio plane-wave local density approximation and classical shell model calculations. Calculated considerable increase of the Ti–O chemical bond covalency nearby the surface is confirmed by experimental data. We predict also the band-gap reduction, espe…

ELECTRICAL PROPERTIES OF LEAD FERROTANTALATE CERAMICS

2009

ABSTRACT Perovskite structures with high dielectric constants and magnetic properties play an important role in micro- and optoelectronics and have numerous practical applications. Relaxor type ferroelectric ceramics PbFe1/2Ta1/2O3 with perovskite structure was subject of present studies. Pyrochlore free lead ferrotantalate ceramics were produced by solid state technology from oxides. Low- and infra-low frequency studies of dielectric properties of PbFe1/2Ta1/2O3 ceramics have revealed considerable infra-low frequency dispersion at temperatures above the temperature of maximum dielectric permittivity. The observed dispersion described by lemniscates is due to a considerable Maxwell-Wagner r…

Epitaxial Films of Relaxor Ferroelectric PbMg1/3Nb2/3O3in Strong Electric Fields

2005

Epitaxial thin films of perovskite relaxor ferroelectric PbMg 1/3 Nb 2/3 O 3 were grown on MgO (001) substrates by pulsed laser deposition using La 0.5 Sr 0.5 CoO 3 bottom electrode layers. Dielectric response of the films was experimentally studied as a function of temperature and frequency in a broad range of amplitudes of ac electric field (to 10 MV/m) and magnitudes of dc electric field (to 50 MV/m). At small fields, a glass-like behavior was observed. With increasing magnitude of the dc field, an onset of a polar state was detected. The orientation of the polar clusters along the direction of the field and fluctuations of the direction of their dipole moments were suggested to determin…

Evidence of Band Bending Induced by Hole Trapping at MAPbI3 Perovskite / Metal Interface

2016

International audience; Electron injection by tunneling from a gold electrode and hole transport properties in polycrystalline MAPbI3 has been investigated using variable temperature experiments and numerical simulations. The presence of a large and unexpected band bending at the Au/MAPbI3 interface is revealed and attributed to the trapping of holes, which enhances the injection of electrons via tunneling. These results elucidate the role of volume and interface defects in state-of-the-art hybrid perovskite semiconductors.

High voltage vacuum-processed perovskite solar cells with organic semiconducting interlayers

2020

In perovskite solar cells, the choice of appropriate transport layers and electrodes is of great importance to guarantee efficient charge transport and collection, minimizing recombination losses. The possibility to sequentially process multiple layers by vacuum methods offers a tool to explore the effects of different materials and their combinations on the performance of optoelectronic devices. In this work, the effect of introducing interlayers and altering the electrode work function has been evaluated in fully vacuum-deposited perovskite solar cells. We compared the performance of solar cells employing common electron buffer layers such as bathocuproine (BCP), with other injection mate…
