    Coordination chemistry as a universal strategy for a controlled perovskite crystallization
    (2023) Zuo, Weiwei; Byranvand, Mahdi Malekshahi; Kodalle, Tim; Zohdi, Mohammadreza; Lim, Jaekeun; Carlsen, Brian; Magorian Friedlmeier, Theresa; Kot, Małgorzata; Das, Chittaranjan; Flege, Jan Ingo; Zong, Wansheng; Abate, Antonio; Sutter‐Fella, Carolin M.; Li, Meng; Saliba, Michael
    The most efficient and stable perovskite solar cells (PSCs) are made from a complex mixture of precursors. Typically, to then form a thin film, an extreme oversaturation of the perovskite precursor is initiated to trigger nucleation sites, e.g., by vacuum, an airstream, or a so-called antisolvent. Unfortunately, most oversaturation triggers do not expel the lingering (and highly coordinating) dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO), which is used as a precursor solvent, from the thin films; this detrimentally affects long-term stability. In this work, (the green) dimethyl sulfide (DMS) is introduced as a novel nucleation trigger for perovskite films combining, uniquely, high coordination and high vapor pressure. This gives DMS a universal scope: DMS replaces other solvents by coordinating more strongly and removes itself once the film formation is finished. To demonstrate this novel coordination chemistry approach, MAPbI3 PSCs are processed, typically dissolved in hard-to-remove (and green) DMSO achieving 21.6% efficiency, among the highest reported efficiencies for this system. To confirm the universality of the strategy, DMS is tested for FAPbI3 as another composition, which shows higher efficiency of 23.5% compared to 20.9% for a device fabricated with chlorobenzene. This work provides a universal strategy to control perovskite crystallization using coordination chemistry, heralding the revival of perovskite compositions with pure DMSO.

    Towards sustainable sulfide‐based all‐solid‐state‐batteries : an experimental investigation of the challenges and opportunities using solid electrolyte free silicon anodes
    (2024) Neumann, Tobias; Alexander Dold, Lukas; Thomas Cerny, Alain; Tröster, Eric; Günthel, Michael; Fischer, Anna; Peter Birke, Kai; Krossing, Ingo; Biro, Daniel
    Silicon is one of the most promising anode active materials for future high–energy lithium‐ion‐batteries (LIB). Due to limitations related to volume changes during de-/lithiation, implementation of this material in commonly used liquid electrolyte‐based LIB needs to be accompanied by material enhancement strategies such as particle structure engineering. In this work, we showcase the possibility to utilize pure silicon as anode active material in a sulfide electrolyte‐based all‐solid‐state battery (ASSB) using a thin separator layer and LiNi0.6Mn0.2Co0.2O2 cathode. We investigate the integration of both solid electrolyte blended anodes and solid electrolyte free anodes and explore the usage of non‐toxic and economically viable solvents suitable for standard atmospheric conditions for the latter. To give an insight into the microstructural changes as well as the lithiation path inside the anode soft X‐ray emission and X‐ray photoelectron spectroscopy were performed after the initial lithiation. Using standard electrochemical analysis methods like galvanostatic cycling and impedance spectroscopy, we demonstrate that both anode types exhibit commendable performance as structural distinctions between two‐dimensional and three‐dimensional interfaces became evident only at high charge rates (8 C).
