Phenomenological mechanisms of hybrid organic-inorganic perovskite thin film deposition by RIR-MAPLE

Abstract

Resonant infrared, matrix-assisted pulsed laser evaporation (RIR-MAPLE) is a promising technique for the physical vapor deposition of hybrid organic-inorganic perovskites. The approach already has been used to deposit both three-dimensional and two-dimensional hybrid perovskites with material quality comparable to those synthesized by solution processing. However, the phenomenological mechanisms of hybrid perovskite film formation by RIR-MAPLE have not been articulated. Therefore, this work presents a careful investigation of film formation mechanisms of three-dimensional methylammonium lead halide perovskites by considering the temporal evolution of morphology, crystallinity, and optical properties of films deposited by RIR-MAPLE.
