Exploring Structural Nuances in Germanium Halide Perovskites using Solid-state 73Ge and 133Cs NMR Spectroscopy
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Metal-halide perovskites remain top candidates for better-performing photovoltaic devices but concerns with leading lead-based materials continue. Ge perovskites remain understudied for use in solar cells compared to their Sn-based counterparts. In this work, we undertake a combined 133Cs and 73Ge solid-state NMR and DFT study of the bulk CsGeX3 (X = Cl, Br, I) series. We show how seemingly small structural variations within germanium halide perovskites have major consequences on their 73Ge and 133Cs NMR signatures and reveal a near cubic-like phase at room temperature for CsGeCl3 with severe local Ge polyhedral distortion. Quantum chemical computations are effective at predicting the structural impact on NMR parameters for 73Ge and 133Cs. This study demonstrates the value of a combined experimental and theoretical approach for investigating attractive materials for energy applications – providing information that is out of reach with conventional characterization methods – and adds the challenging 73Ge nucleus to the toolkit.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human 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 source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
