Just Accepted “Just Accepted” manuscripts have been peer-reviewed and accepted for publication. They are posted online prior to technical editing, formatting for publication and author proofing. The American Chemical Society provides “Just Accepted” as a service to the research community to expedite the dissemination of scientific material as soon as possible after acceptance. “Just Accepted” manuscripts appear in full in PDF format accompanied by an HTML abstract. “Just Accepted” manuscripts have been fully peer reviewed, but should not be considered the official version of record. They are citable by the Digital Object Identifier (DOI®). “Just Accepted” is an optional service offered to authors. Therefore, the “Just Accepted” Web site may not include all articles that will be published in the journal. After a manuscript is technically edited and formatted, it will be removed from the “Just Accepted” Web site and published as an ASAP article. Note that technical editing may introduce minor changes to the manuscript text and/or graphics which could affect content, and all legal disclaimers and ethical guidelines that apply to the journal pertain.

Abstract Photocarrier generation in a material, transportation to the material surface, and collection at the electrode interface are of paramount importance in any optoelectronic and photovoltaic device. In the last collection process, ideal performance comprises ultrafast charge collection to enhance current conversion efficiency and broadband collection to enhance energy conversion efficiency. Here, for the first time, we demonstrate ultrafast broadband charge collection achieved simultaneously at the clean graphene/organicinorganic halide perovskite interface. The clean interface is realized by directly growing perovskite on graphene surface without polymer contamination. The tunable two-color pump-probe spectroscopy, time-resolved photoluminescence spectroscopy and timedependent density functional theory all reveal that the clean-interfacial graphene collects band-edge photocarriers of perovskite in an ultrashort time of ~100 fs, with a current collection efficiency close to 99%. In addition, graphene can extract deep-band hot carriers of perovskite within only ~50 fs, several orders faster than hot carrier relaxation and cooling in perovskite itself, due to the unique Dirac linear band structure of graphene, indicating a potential high energy conversion efficiency exceeding Shockley−Queisser limit. Adding other graphene superiority of good transparency, high carrier mobility and extreme flexibility, clean-interfacial graphene provides an ideal charge collection layer and electrode candidate for future optoelectronic and photovoltaic applications in two dimensions.

Introduction In all optoelectronic and photovoltaic devices, three essential processes are involved to accomplish photocurrent generation or photoenergy harvesting: light absorption in a material to generate photocarriers, photocarrier transportation to the material surface, and charge collection to the electrode. The engineering and optimization of these three processes lie at the center of improving the photoelectric device performance. The emergent absorber materials of organicinorganic halide perovskites (e.g. CH3NH3PbI3) shed bright light on optimizing the first two key photoelectric processes, as this family of materials have a tunable bandgap from visible to near infrared with high absorption coefficient (over 104 cm-1 above bandgap) to ensure high photocarrier generation efficiency1, strong dielectric screening with negligible exciton binding energy (
