Metal-halide perovskites under pressure: Effect of anisotropic deformation on optoelectronic properties by Siyu Zhang, Mengyu Liu, Jie Su, Zhenhua Lin, Haidong Yuan, Lixin Guo, Yue Hao, Jingjing Chang

“…Cubic FAPbI3 (Pm3m) undergoes a series of phase transitions as pressure increases from 0 to 9 GPa: transitioning to a tetragonal phase at ∼2 GPa, an orthorhombic phase around 5 GPa, and eventually to a monoclinic phase near 8 GPa, accompanied by reductions in lattice constant, bond length, and octahedral angle. The anisotropic structural deformation adjusts the bandgap from 1.43 eV at 0 GPa to 1.10 eV at 5 GPa, resulting in a redshift, suggesting that photoelectric conversion efficiency could be enhanced under pressures less than 5 GPa. …”
