Cage Molecules Stabilize Lead Halide Perovskite Thin Films by Sun, Shijing, Liu, Ming, Thapa, Janak, Hartono, Noor Titan Putri, Zhao, Yicheng, He, Donglin, Wieghold, Sarah, Chua, Matthew, Wu, Yue, Bulović, Vladimir, Ling, Sanliang, Brabec, Christoph J., Cooper, Andrew I., Buonassisi, Tonio

“…However, to date the choice of additives is largely limited to a dozen or so materials under the design philosophy that high crystallinity is a prerequisite for stable HOIP thin films. In this study, we incorporate porous organic cages (POCs) as functional additives into perovskite thin films for the first time and investigate the HOIP–POC interaction via a combined experimental and computational approach. …”
