Slow Cooling of Hot Polarons in Halide Perovskite Solar Cells

Abstract

Abstract Halide perovskites show unusual thermalization kinetics for above-bandgap photoexcitation. We explain this as a consequence of excess energy being deposited into discrete large polaron states. The crossover between low-fluence and high-fluence “phonon bottleneck” cooling is due to a Mott transition where the polarons overlap (n ≥ 1018 cm–3) and the phonon subpopulations are shared. We calculate the initial rate of cooling (thermalization) from the scattering time in the Fröhlich polaron model to be 78 meV ps–1 for CH3NH3PbI3. This rapid initial thermalization involves heat transfer into optical phonon modes coupled by a polar dielectric interaction. Further cooling to equilibrium over hundreds of picoseconds is limited by the ultralow thermal conductivity of the perovskite lattice.

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.
