Stable Efficient Methylammonium Lead Iodide Thin Film Photodetectors with Highly Oriented Millimeter-Sized Crystal Grains
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The size of crystal grains in lead halide perovskite thin films remains a vital design feature for durable optoelectronic devices. With larger crystals and reduced grain boundaries per surface area, the stability of the structures improves as degradation, caused by moisture and oxygen percolating into the grain boundaries, is minimized. Thus far, large scale continuous lateral films of methylammonium lead iodide (MAPbI3) with macroscale crystal grains compatible with thin film (<1 μm thick) solar cells and photodetectors have not been reported. Herein, we employ meniscus-guided blade coating technique to grow thin films of highly oriented millimeter-size MAPbI3 crystals, resulting in over an order of magnitude responsivity enhancement over spin-coated films in lateral photoconductors with channel lengths over 100 μm. Furthermore, the blade-coated MAPbI3 thin films exhibit anisotropic higher conductivity along crystal grains over a millimeter range. With crystals orders of magnitude larger in size, and with no additive treatment or additional layers, blade-coated devices manifest improved stability and retain over 80% of their performance tested in ambient air for over 300 h in comparison to spin-coated devices that reach less than 50% of their original peformance within the first 36 h.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
