ABSTRACT

Improving device lifetime and stability remains the stumbling-block of the commercialization of hybrid perovskite based devices (HPDs). While extensive efforts have been paid, thermal property, one of the most crucial parameters in conventional solid-state electronic devices, has rarely been studied for HPDs. Here, we investigate the temperature-dependent ultralow thermal conductivity and ultrahigh thermal expansion of single-crystalline MAPbX3 (MA=CH3NH3), which are found distinct from traditional thin-film solar cells materials. Particularly, for MAPbI3, thermal conductivity is observed being only 0.3 W·m-1·K-1 and linear thermal expansion coefficient along [100] direction is as high as 57.8×10-6 K-1 (tetragonal) and much higher at the structural phase transition point. We attribute the ultralow thermal conductivity and ultrahigh thermal expansion to the weak chemical bonds associated with the soft perovskite materials. These unique properties can be very challenging for the multilayer devices design, but their ultralow thermal conductivity may unveil a new thermoelectric material concept.

Introduction Organic-inorganic hybrid perovskite MAPbX3 is attractive for the development of highperformance optoelectronic devices such as solar cells,1-3 lasers,4, 5 light-emitting diodes,6, 7 and photodetectors.8, 9 Recently MAPbI3 solar cells have reached more than 22% power conversion efficiency.10 Nevertheless, devices’ stability and lifetime have been hindrances to their commercialization. Since advanced encapsulation technology has been keeping solar cells from moisture, oxygen and ultraviolet light,11-14 the intrinsic stability of the material and structure itself become extremely important. Especially, HPDs are generally of multilayer-structure, the accumulation of heat in working period can reduce device’s useful lifetime, transmission efficiency, and the following mismatching of thermal expansion between each layer may lead to the decoupling of components even degradation of perovskite layer.11 Thermal expansion (α) and thermal conductivity (κ) are valuable references for evaluating the thermal stress and thermal diffusion that the material will undergo upon temperature cycling. Using temperature-dependent X-ray diffraction11,

and atomic force microscopy,16 linear

thermal expansion coefficient of MAPbI3 have been measured indirectly. It was found the α (MAPbI3) is large. Particularly around the phase transition temperature, values are even over 400×10-6 K-1.16 To minimize thermal stress in HPDs, the accurate value for α (MAPbX3) is yet to be determined. However, the non-macro measurements so far give rather dispersed values (see Table S1). In this regard, without the noise from grain boundaries, secondary phases and tiny grain size etc., single-crystal-based macro measurements are needed. With the mature of MAPbX3 single crystal growth technology,17-19 it is promising to use single crystals to study these intrinsic properties. Lots of researches have showed that perovskite single crystals exhibit

long carries diffusion length (175±25 µm), remarkably low trap-state densities, while their carrier mobility reaches 164±25 cm2·V-1·S-1.19 The high power conversion efficiency may root in the above superior properties. In addition to α, κ can also be obtained from the single crystal. To our knowledge, there are some measurements of κ (MAPbI3).16, 20-22 However, these measurements give dispersed results as well (see Table S1) and the temperature dependence of thermal conductivity has not been studied yet. Therefore, to shed light on fundamental properties as well as device design, it’s necessary to measure the α and κ using bulk single crystals of MAPbX3. In our work, resorting to anti-solvent vapor-assisted crystallization (AVC)17 and inverse temperature crystallization (ITC)18 method respectively, high-quality, centimeter-scale single crystals of MAPbCl3, MAPbBr3 and MAPbI3 were grown. Using these single crystals, we first investigated the thermal properties of MAPbX3 systematically.

uniform color and high transparency, consistent with their bandgaps. The shapes of all the crystals obeyed Wulff construction and were consistent with previous reports.18,

19, 23-25

It is

worth mentioning that MAPbI3 single crystals were obtained by ITC, because we cannot get large enough samples by AVC. We identified these crystals by X-ray diffraction and used Tauc plots to get their optical band gaps in Figure S1, these parameters are very close to the values in earlier reports.17-19, 24

accurately measured, shown in Figure 2. We complemented the Cp data above room temperature by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) (Figure 2a), which are in good connection with the highly reliable Cp data below room temperature tested by Onoda-Yamamuro et al.26 The Cp of MAPbX3 become lower in accordance with the order of Cl, Br and I. Meanwhile, there are obviously peaks in the heat capacity curves for MAPbX3, which are related to the phase transformation (orthorhombic-tetragonal-cubic) from low temperature to high temperature. Especially for MAPbI3, its phase transmission from tetragonal to cubic near 58.9 ℃ may have a great impact on practical application. Thermal diffusion coefficient in Figure 2b were measured by the laser flash method commonly recognized by the international thermophysics community to have higher precision.27 As the κ and D follow eq 1 ߢ = ‫ܥߩܦ‬௣

where ρ is density (measured by Archimedes method in Table S3), κ was calculated and shown in Figure 2c. At room temperature, κ are 0.52±0.04 W·m-1·K-1, 0.37±0.04 W·m-1·K-1, and 0.30±0.01 W·m-1·K-1 for MAPbX3 (X=Cl, Br, I) respectively. These values are ultra-low and closer to the previous reports.16 Similar to the Cp, heat transport properties have the same decreased regularity with the order of Cl, Br and I on account of the gradually reduced trend of electronegativity. The thermal transport properties of MAPbI3 are also affected by the phase transition. When the two phases co-exist, the D of MAPbI3 decreases dramatically due to the disordered structure, but κ does not change significantly due to the increase of Cp. By using the model developed by Cahill et al., the amorphous limit of thermal conductivity (κmin) was estimated. As shown in Figure 2d-f, thermal conductivities of MAPbX3 are close to κmin at the high temperature. With density-functional theory (DFT) and Slack model28, 29(details

in Supporting Information), the lattice thermal conductivities of polycrystalline MAPbX3 were calculated. Based on the Wiedemann-Franz law, electronic contribution to the thermal conductivity is negligible within MAPbX3.21 The theoretical thermal conductivities agree well with experimental thermal conductivities measured by the single crystals. Simultaneously Table S5 showed the low Debye temperature and low acoustic velocity, which represent the weak strength of the average chemical bonds and are also the reason of low thermal conductivity.

properties macroscopically. (Figure 3) As temperature goes up, dL/L0 of MAPbX3 (X=Cl, Br) is increased, indicating the regular expansion of samples. The stable value for thermal expansion coefficient of MAPbCl3 is 29.3×10-6 K-1 (cubic phase in [100] direction) and MAPbBr3 is 31.9×10-6 K-1 (cubic phase in [100] direction). Whereas at 56 ℃,due to the phase transition, there is a sudden expansion for MAPbI3, concurrently thermal expansion coefficient dramatically grows from 57.8×10-6 K-1 (tetragonal phase in [100] direction) to 263.5×10-6 K-1 and finally decrease to approximately 39.0×10-6 K-1 (cubic phase in [100] direction). It can be found that the phase transition temperatures are a little different between thermal expansion (56 ℃) which is closer to literature value30-32 and heat capacity (58.9 ℃). Here it can be ascribed to the higher temperature increasing rate of heat capacity (see Supporting Information) and the dynamic thermal expansion test is more sensitive to phase transitions. Table 1.

The anharmonicity of lattice vibrations can be characterized by Grüneisen constant γ. γ (Table 1) was calculated by the thermal expansion coefficient.33 It was close to the values calculated from the DFT elastic constant. Utilizing the γ and acoustic velocity in different directions, we got the κ in different directions consistent with the experimental values. Although the γ derived from the elastic constant has obvious anisotropy, the anisotropy of the thermal conductivity is not salient owing to the anisotropy of acoustic velocity. The γ of MAPbX3 is not large, which means the non-harmonic vibration does not contribute much to its low κ. We think this may be connected to the high symmetry of the cubic perovskite structure. In other words, the ultra-low κ may not be directly related to the perovskite structure.

To further discuss the thermal properties of MAPbX3, thermal expansion coefficient vs. thermal conductivity of MAPbX3 (X = Cl, Br, I), the materials of electron transport layer, and other absorption layer materials are summarized in Figure 4. Obviously, MAPbX3 possess ultralow κ and ultrahigh α. Some articles ascribe the low thermal conductivity to the organic ions and the perovskite structure.21, 34, 35 But apparently in Figure 4 the κ for CsPbBr3 and CsSnI3 are analogously very low which are around 0.4 W·m-1·K-136 close to MAPbX3, while the thermal conductivity of traditional oxide perovskites materials are not low.37-39 This further suggests that the low κ of the halogen perovskite is mainly caused by the weak interaction in Pb/Sn-X framework. On the other hand, compared with CsPbX3, κ of MAPbX3 are lower. The more complicated composition and larger number of atoms in the organic cations help to further decrease κ whereas it was not the dominant reason to low κ. Moreover, since α is closely related to the strength and stiffness of lattice, we also attribute the high α (MAPbX3) to the weak interaction in Pb/Sn-X framework, which echoes its ultra-low κ. As shown in Figure 4, their prominent ultralow κ and high α of MAPbX3 locate them at the upper-left corner, indicating major incompatibility between their thermal properties with commercial transport layer materials and substrates. For HPDs, due to the ultralow κ, accumulation of heat is inevitable in working period. the mismatching between every layers may generate strain and cause instability of device.11 It should be noted that the aforementioned thermal degradation can be partially solved by the anisotropy of thermal expansion of MAPbX3. The α (MAPbX3) along [001] is negative.15, 16 If the perovskite layer can be grown such that its [001] is parallel to substrate, the mismatch in interlayer α can be reduced significantly. Luckily, there are some methods to crystallize perovskite films as described above.40,

In addition, it is also helpful to develop new

transportation layer and substrates materials whose thermal properties have a better matching with MAPbX3. Dialectically thinking, although the ultralow κ of halogen perovskite is a hidden threat for device stability, it also makes halogen perovskite a promising potential thermoelectric material. Their thermal conductivities are lower than the typical thermoelectric materials SnSe (0.7),42 Bi2Te3 (0.77),43 Bi2S3 (0.64).44 Surprisingly, a low κ and relatively high electrical conductivity 282 S·cm-1 materials CsSnI3 was found.36 Furthermore, the insights obtained from this work suggest materials with Pb/Sn-X but of non-perovskite structure might have low thermal conductivity and hold promise for thermoelectric application. This may unveil a new thermoelectric material system.

Conclusions In this work, centimeter-sized and high quality MAPbX3 single crystals were grown. Using laser flash method, we find the ultralow thermal conductivity of MAPbX3 ranges from 0.3 to 0.52 W·m-1·K-1, being attributed to the weak lattice framework and phonon scattering from organic cation. The thermal expansion (MAPbX3) along [100] direction measured by thermomechanical analysis is found higher than 30×10-6 K-1. Ultralow thermal conductivity and ultrahigh thermal expansion might be a challenge for device stability under environments with severe thermal fluctuation. The discovery and understanding suggests that extra consideration such as phase transition-type thermal stress is needed in designing photovoltaic module based on halide perovskite.
