Observation of Hot Carrier Localization Affected by A Cations in Hybrid Perovskites.

Organic-inorganic lead halide perovskites (OLHPs) have demonstrated exceptional properties in high-performance photoelectric devices. However, the impact of A-site cations, specifically formamidinium and methylammonium (MA), on the optoelectronic properties of OLHPs, particularly in the context of hot carrier utilization, remains a topic of debate. In this study, we propose a method for characterizing hot carrier transportation by measuring the hot carrier mobility and momentum-dependent transient photocurrent influenced by A-site cations in OLHPs.

Real-time observation of the buildup of polaron in α-FAPbI.

The formation of polaron, i.e., the strong coupling process between the carrier and lattice, is considered to play a crucial role in benefiting the photoelectric performance of hybrid organic-inorganic halide perovskites.

Ultrafast Drift Current Terahertz Emission Amplification in the Monolayer WSe/Si Heterostructure.

Two-dimensional transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) have great potential application for seamless on-chip integration due to their strong photon-electron-spin-valley coupling. However, the contact-free measurements of the valley-coupled photocurrent in TMDs is still challenging. Here, ultrafast terahertz emission spectroscopy is employed to investigate the photocurrent dynamics in monolayer WSe, and an interface-induced drift current amplification is found in the WSe/Si heterostructure.
