Published: July 2023

Accurate many-body perturbation theory-based calculations were used to study the electronic and excitonic properties of lead-free quaternary antiperovskite CaNAsSb; large quasiparticle band gap renormalization, strong optical absorption, and low exciton binding energy, as well as high efficiency of >32% with a thickness of 500 nm were predicted.

Lead-free perovskite-inspired materials (PIMs) are gaining attention in optoelectronics due to their low toxicity and inherent air stability. Their wide bandgaps (≈2 eV) make them ideal for indoor light harvesting. However, the investigation of PIMs for indoor photovoltaics (IPVs) is still in its infancy.

Low-dimensional organic-inorganic metal halides, especially lead-free perovskites, are attracting increasing attention because of their environmentally friendly processing, flexible structures, chemical stability, and promising nonlinear optical properties. Herein, we report a new stable polar 0D lead-free hybrid bismuth chloride to enable the second-harmonic generation (SHG) active material (BTA)BiCl (BTA = benzyltriethylammonium, CHCHN(CH)) that was obtained by the antisolvent vapor diffusion method and crystallized in the polar space group. Its structure features organic cations surrounded by face-sharing [BiCl] dimers.

The emergence of halide double perovskites significantly increases the compositional space for lead-free and air-stable photovoltaic absorbers compared to halide perovskites. Nevertheless, most halide double perovskites exhibit oversized band gaps (>1.9 eV) or dipole-forbidden optical transition, which are unfavorable for efficient single-junction solar cell applications.
