Metal-halide perovskite semiconductors have received tremendous attention in research due to their excellent optoelectronic properties, making them interesting materials for solar cells and light emitting diodes (LEDs). It is fascinating that these perovskites are highly tolerant against electronic defects and at the same time show pronounced ionic conductivity mediated through mobile lattice defects.
In this talk an overview on the effect of mobile ions on solar cells and LEDs operated in pulsed mode is given. It is commented on the consequences, the interplay between electronic and ionic charges has on the interpretation of common characterization techniques such as photoluminescence and impedance spectroscopy.
An example discussed in more detail are lead-free Cs2AgBiBr6 double perovskite solar cells, whose efficiency-limiting processes remain a matter of research.
