Abstract

Detailed theoretical investigations on their structural and electronic

properties of two-dimensional (2D) monofluorinating phenethylammonium

perovskite are required to deeply understand the origin of the crystal

structural and optoelectronic differences caused by organic spacers.

Herein, formation energy, non-covalent interaction, band structure,

exciton binding energy, carrier mobility and optical absorption spectra

of 2D monofluorinating phenethylammonium lead iodide perovskite were

calculated using density functional theory. Results show that steric

effect leads to the orientational disorder of spacers in

ortho-fluorinating phenethylammonium perovskite and weak interaction

leads to the herringbone configuration of spacers in meta-fluorinating

phenethylammonium perovskite. Exciton binding energy significantly

influences the short circuit current density (JSC) of

fluorophenethylammonium-based 2D perovskites, which can well explain the

experimental trends of JSC. Formation energy analysis of perovskites

with the same chemical components but different crystal structures and

exciton binding energy calculation can be additional strategies in

high-throughput screening for high-performance 2D perovskites.
