Hybrid halide perovskites represent one of the most promising solutions toward the fabrication of all solid nanostructured solar cells, with improved efficiency and long-term stability. This article aims at investigating the structural properties of iodide/ chloride mixed-halide perovskites and correlating them with their photovoltaic performances. We found out that, independent of the components ratio in the precursor solution, Cl incorporation in an iodide-based structure, is possible only at relatively low concentration levels (below 3-4%). However, even if the material band gap remains substantially unchanged, the Cl doping dramatically improves the charge transport within the perovskite layer, explaining the outstanding performances of meso-superstructured solar cells based on this material.

Abstract
Hybrid halide perovskites represent one of the most promising solutions toward the fabrication of all solid nanostructured solar cells, with improved efficiency and long-term stability. This article aims at investigating the structural properties of iodide/ chloride mixed-halide perovskites and correlating them with their photovoltaic performances. We found out that, independent of the components ratio in the precursor solution, Cl incorporation in an iodide-based structure, is possible only at relatively low concentration levels (below 3-4%). However, even if the material band gap remains substantially unchanged, the Cl doping dramatically improves the charge transport within the perovskite layer, explaining the outstanding performances of meso-superstructured solar cells based on this material.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
