Interface energetics and dynamics in organic-inorganic hybrid perovskites by Goh, Teck Wee

“…In the second part of the work, a successful homemade TR-2PPE system was set up, and preliminary studies on CsPbBr3 single crystals found that hot carriers generated through carrier-carrier scattering ∼1 eV above the conduction band edge possess long lifetimes ∼3 ns under resonant excitation due to strong band-filling and long lifetimes of band edge carriers in single crystals which hinder hot carrier cooling. …”

Origin of Photocarrier Losses in Iron Pyrite (FeS2) Nanocubes by Shukla, Sudhanshu, Xing, Guichuan, Ge, Hu, Prabhakar, Rajiv Ramanujam, Mathew, Sinu, Su, Zhenghua, Nalla, Venkatram, Venkatesan, Thirumalai, Mathews, Nripan, Sritharan, Thirumany, Sum, Tze Chien, Xiong, Qihua

“…Herein, we have studied the photophysics of pyrite by ultrafast laser spectroscopy to understand fundamental limitation of low Voc by quantifying photocarrier losses in high quality, stoichiometric, and phase pure {100} faceted pyrite nanocubes. We found that fast carrier localization of photoexcited carriers to indirect band edge and shallow trap states is responsible for major carrier loss. …”
