Cesium-tin-iodine film, and preparation method and application thereof
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the field of perovskite photodetectors, and particularly relates to a cesium tin iodine thin film, and a preparation method and application thereof.
Background
Organic-inorganic hybrid lead-perovskite halide (OIHPs) is a novel photoelectric material appearing in recent years, wherein organic-inorganic hybrid perovskite thin film Photodetectors (PDs) benefit from the characteristics of low preparation and material cost, simple preparation process, easy flexible integration and the like, and the development is rapid. Currently, most of the PDs studied at present mainly adopt toxic lead element, which is easy to cause environmental pollution. Tin element is often adopted to replace lead in the non-lead perovskite thin film photoelectric detector, but the tin in the pure tin perovskite of the photoelectric detector with better performance is + 2-valent, and the tin is easily oxidized into + 4-valent tin in the air, so that the performance of the perovskite thin film photoelectric device is easily seriously reduced. The development of novel and stable tin-based perovskite thin films and photoelectric detectors has important scientific significance and application value.
Whereas + 2-valent tin, + 4-valent tin forms a double perovskite phase when forming a perovskite, with cesium tin iodide (Cs)2SnI6) Exist in the form of (1). The reported value of the band gap of the bulk material is more between 1.45 and 1.6eV, and the bulk material is a photoelectric material with high potential. However, the current research reports Cs2SnI6In the preparation, a vacuum evaporation method is mainly adopted, namely cesium iodide and tin iodide are evaporated on a substrate, and then cesium tin iodide Cs is generated through an annealing reaction2SnI6The perovskite phase of (a). The vacuum evaporation method has the advantages of high requirements on equipment conditions, high energy consumption and high cost, and is not beneficial to large-scale industrial application. Also, the first synthesis of Cs-Sn-I by solution method has been reported in part2SnI6The powder is dissolved in a certain solvent, and a thin film is prepared by spin coating. The process adopts a liquid phase process, reduces the cost, but has the disadvantages of complicated preparation process, low yield and poor product solubility. When the conventional organic-inorganic hybrid perovskite thin film is prepared, precursors of the conventional organic-inorganic hybrid perovskite thin film are directly mixed and dissolved, the precursor thin film is prepared in a spin coating mode, and then a perovskite phase is generated through annealing, so that the process is simple and easy to control, the quality is high, and the film is suitable for being used as an efficient thin film photoelectric device. However, Cs2SnI6Similar processes have been rarely reported for thin films.
