The nature of the band gap obtained from SOC and QP corrections changes to indirect. The semi-core states of Bi have been proved to be crucial in the GW calculations. Optical absorption from BSE, including SOC best matches the experimental data.

There are conflicting understandings of the electronic and optical properties of CsPb2Br5. We investigated the electronic and optical properties of CsPb2Br5 with first-principles calculations. It is confirmed that CsPb2Br5 is a semiconductor with an indirect band gap of 3.08 eV at GGA/PBE level and 3.72 eV at the HSE06 hybrid functional level. The PBE results demonstrate that the inclusion of SOC slightly reduces the band gap. We calculate the optical absorbance/emission spectrum of CsPb2Br5. It is found the optical absorption edges locate at 360–380 nm, shorter than the wavelength of visible light. Our results support the experimental results of Li et al. [Chem. Commun. 52 (2016) 11296] and Zhang et al. [J. Mater. Chem. C 6 (2018) 446].

AbstractThe highly successful PBE functional and the modified Becke–Johnson exchange potential were used to calculate the structural, electronic, and optical properties of the vacancy-ordered double perovskites A2BX6 (A = Rb, Cs; B = Sn, Pd, Pt; X = Cl, Br, and I) using the density functional theory, a first principles approach. The convex hull approach was used to check the thermodynamic stability of the compounds. The calculated parameters (lattice constants, band gap, and bond lengths) are in tune with the available experimental and theoretical results. The compounds, Rb2PdBr6 and Cs2PtI6, exhibit band gaps within the optimal range of 0.9–1.6 eV, required for the single-junction photovoltaic applications. The photovoltaic efficiency of the studied materials was assessed using the spectroscopic-limited-maximum-efficiency (SLME) metric as well as the optical properties. The ideal band gap, high dielectric constants, and optimum light absorption of these perovskites make them suitable for high performance single and multi-junction perovskite solar cells.
