    Abstract The conversion mechanism from the precursor ink to the perovskite film using antisolvent-induced crystallization has been studied using in situ X-ray diffraction during blade coating and antisolvent deposition. We study various solvent systems forming methylammonium lead iodide perovskite. We find that it is critical to add the antisolvent before the formation of a crystalline intermediate phase. Compared to thermal crystallization, the antisolvent-induced crystallization alters the conversion route. Instead of heterogeneous nucleation and conversion through a crystalline intermediate phase, antisolvent-assisted annealing leads to a rapid direct crystallization, resulting in highly regular smooth films.

    Abstract Rapid Spray Plasma Processing (RSPP) is a high throughput, scalable, and open-air route toward manufacturing perovskite solar modules. The plasma exposure is dosed such that the perovskite precursor solution is cured in milliseconds using a combination of rapid heating, reactive species, and UV photons. We implemented in situ wide angle X-ray scattering (WAXS) to characterize the crystal growth in multiple cation, mixed halide perovskite thin films—Csx(MAzFA1−z)1−xPb(Br0.17I0.83)3 for 0.05 ≤ x ≤ 0.25—fabricated in open air. The use of synchrotron radiation and high detector speeds resolved the formation and dissolution of a transient intermediate crystalline phase during the tens of milliseconds when the perovskite crystallized. Increasing the mole fraction of cesium and methylammonium resulted in a decrease in the intermediate phase and an increase in the average grain diameter. Increasing the cesium fraction suppressed phase segregation, as observed in photoluminescence. Calculations showed the refractive index decreased and the extinction coefficient increased with cesium fraction. Based on the rapid crystallization kinetics, RSPP perovskite films exhibit residual stress values >5× lower than spin coated films. Understanding the kinetics of perovskite formation enables the design of perovskite films with improved thermomechanical and operational stability.

    Abstract We report on submicron organosilicate barrier films produced rapidly in air by a scalable spray plasma process that improves both the stability and efficiency of perovskite solar cells. The plasma is at sufficiently low temperature to prevent damage to the underlying layers. Oxidizing species and heat from the plasma improve device performance by enhancing both interfacial contact and the conductivity of the hole transporting layer. The thickness of the barrier films is tunable and transparent over the entire visible spectrum. The morphology and density of the barrier are shown to improve with the addition of a fluorine-based precursor. Devices with submicron coatings exhibited significant improvements in stability, maintaining 92% of their initial power conversion efficiencies after more than 3000 h in dry heat (85 °C, 25% RH) while also being resistant to degradation under simulated operational conditions of continuous exposure to light, heat, and moisture. X-ray diffraction measurements performed while heating showed the barrier film dramatically slows the formation of PbI2. The barrier films also are compatible with flexible devices, exhibiting no signs of cracking or delamination after 10 000 bending cycles on a 127 μm substrate with a bending radius of 1 cm.

    Abstract Multicomponent perovskites of the type CsₓFA₁₋ₓPb(BryI₁₋y)₃ are good candidates for highly efficient perovskite and tandem solar cells. In this work the degradation mechanisms of these multicomponent films were investigated and our results show that the degradation is a complex process, with the formation of a number of intermediates and lead-based products. In situ X-ray diffraction analysis carried out in the first stages of the degradation indicate that different from MAPbI₃ perovskites, the degradation of these multicomponent films begins with the formation of hexagonal polytypes as intermediates, which in turn are converted to hydrated phases. The initial steps of the degradation were also monitored for the first time by in situ environmental scanning electron microscopy (ESEM) with 75% of relative humidity. In situ ESEM images show that the degradation has its beginning at the “valleys” of the wrinkled morphology found in these films, possibly because of a smaller grain size in these regions. XPS analysis confirms that the hydrated perovskite films continue to react with the environment, leading to the formation of metal hydroxides, carbonates, and oxides as final products. Our results also indicate that the degradation mechanism is highly dependent on the Cs concentration and Br content providing guidance for choosing the best compositions for efficient, but more environmentally stable solar cells.

    Abstract Template-free fabrication of non-spherical polymeric nanoparticles is desirable for various applications, but has had limited success owing to thermodynamic favorability of sphere formation. Herein we present a simple way to prepare cubic nanoparticles of block copolymers by self-assembly from aqueous solutions at room temperature. Nanocubes with edges of 40-200 nm are formed spontaneously on different surfaces upon water evaporation from micellar solutions of triblock copolymers containing a central poly(ethylene oxide) block and terminal trimethylene carbonate/dithiolane blocks. These polymers self-assemble into 28±5 nm micelles in water. Upon drying, micelle aggregation and a kinetically controlled crystallization of central blocks evidently induce solid cubic particle formation. An approach for preserving the structures of these cubes in water by thiol- or photo-induced crosslinking was developed. The ability to solubilize a model hydrophobic drug, curcumin, was also explored.

    Abstract A new class of donor-acceptor (D-A) copolymers found to produce high charge carrier mobilities competitive with amorphous silicon ($> 1 cm^{2}V^{-1}s^{-1}$) exhibits the puzzling microstructure of substantial local order, however lacking long-range order and crystallinity previously deemed necessary for achieving high mobility. Here, we demonstrate the application of low-dose transmission electron microscopy to image and quantify the nanoscale and mesoscale organization of an archetypal D-A copolymer across areas comparable to electronic devices (~ $9 {\mu}m^{2}$). The local structure is spatially resolved by mapping the backbone (001) spacing reflection, revealing nanocrystallites of aligned polymer chains over nearly the entire film. Analysis of the nanoscale structure of its ordered domains suggests significant short- and medium-range order and preferential grain boundary orientations. Moreover, we provide insights into the rich, interconnected mesoscale organization of this new family of D-A copolymers by analysis of the local orientational spatial autocorrelations.
