Abstract

Methylammonium lead iodide perovskite, CH 3 NH 3 PbI 3 (MAPbI 3 ), has made great progress in its efficiency as used in solid-state solar cells during recent years. Meanwhile, the degradation of its performance in moisture has attracted great attention, but the specific mechanism is not yet fully established. The water effects on the detailed structure and properties of the perovskite CH 3 NH 3 PbI 3 have been carefully explored based on first-principles calculations. The results reveal that the water adsorption energy on the CH 3 NH 3 PbI 3 (001) surface is ∼0.30 eV, while the water can easily penetrate into the surface in the form of molecular state owing to the huge interspace of CH 3 NH 3 PbI 3, which can further corrode down the whole structure gradually. More importantly, the deformation of the structure greatly affects the electronic structure, which decreases the optical absorption. Such work paves an important way to understand the initial degradation progress of the perovskite structure under the humidity condition, which should help to optimize the structure to prevent the penetration of water in the system.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
