摘要
本研究采用第一原理方法研究了无毒无机三方-KGeX3(X = Br,I)包晶石的结构、机械、电子和光学特性。研究发现,三方-KGeX3(X = Br,I)包晶石具有热力学和机械稳定性。KGeBr3 和 KGeI3 这两种三方包晶都是直接带隙半导体,带隙分别为 2.46 eV 和 1.45 eV。KGeBr3 非常适合用于在紫外线(UV)范围内工作的光电设备,而 KGeI3 作为包晶太阳能电池的太阳能吸收层则大有可为。研究发现,KGeI3 具有延展性,在可见光区域具有良好的光学吸收性。本文的研究结果与之前发表的有关类似晶体结构的文献十分吻合。这项研究表明,三方无毒 K 基无机包晶可以很好地应用于光电领域。
First-principles study of novel non-toxic trigonal KGeX3 (X=Br, I) perovskites: A potential for optoelectronic applications
In this study, structural, mechanical, electronic and optical properties of non-toxic inorganic trigonal-KGeX3 (X = Br, I) perovskites are investigated by first-principles method. The trigonal-KGeX3 (X = Br, I) perovskites are found to be thermodynamically and mechanically stable. Both trigonal perovskites, KGeBr3 and KGeI3 are direct band gap semiconductors with band gaps of 2.46 eV and 1.45 eV respectively. KGeBr3 is well-suited for optoelectronic devices that operate in the ultraviolet (UV) range, while KGeI3 is very promising as a solar absorber layer in perovskite solar cells. The KGeI3 is found to be ductile and provides good optical absorbance in visible region. The findings presented in this article align well with the previous literature published on similar crystal structures. This study suggests that trigonal non-toxic K-based inorganic perovskites can be very good candidates for optoelectronic applications.
