First-principles calculations to investigate pressure-driven electronic phase transition of lead-free halide perovskites KMCl3 (M = Ge, Sn) for superior optoelectronic performance

This article investigates the physical properties of lead-free tin- and germanium-based halide perovskites under pressure via the density functional theory to use as potential photovoltaic materials. Specifically, the structural, electronic, optical, and mechanical properties of KMCl3 (M = Ge, Sn) u...
