AbstractThe single parabolic band (SPB) model has been widely used to preliminarily elucidate inherent transport behaviors of thermoelectric (TE) materials, such as their band structure and electronic thermal conductivity, etc. However, in the SPB calculation, it is necessary to determine some intermediate variables, such as Fermi level or the complex Fermi-Dirac integrals. In this work, we establish a direct carrier-concentration-dependent restructured SPB model, which eliminates Fermi-Dirac integrals and Fermi level calculation and emerges stronger visibility and usability in experiments. We have verified the reliability of such restructured model with 490 groups of experimental data from state-of-the-art TE materials and the relative error is less than 2%. Moreover, carrier effective mass, intrinsic carrier mobility and optimal carrier concentration of these materials are systematically investigated. We believe that our work can provide more convenience and accuracy for thermoelectric data analysis as well as instructive understanding on future optimization design.

AbstractHot-carrier cooling processes of perovskite materials are typically described by a single parabolic band model that includes the effects of carrier-phonon scattering, hot phonon bottleneck, and Auger heating. However, little is known (if anything) about the cooling processes in which the spin-degenerate parabolic band splits into two spin-polarized bands, i.e., the Rashba band splitting effect. Here, we investigated the hot-carrier cooling processes for two slightly different compositions of two-dimensional Dion–Jacobson hybrid perovskites, namely, (3AMP)PbI4 and (4AMP)PbI4 (3AMP = 3-(aminomethyl)piperidinium; 4AMP = 4-(aminomethyl)piperidinium), using a combination of ultrafast transient absorption spectroscopy and first-principles calculations. In (4AMP)PbI4, upon Rashba band splitting, the spin-dependent scattering of hot electrons is responsible for accelerating hot-carrier cooling at longer delays. Importantly, the hot-carrier cooling of (4AMP)PbI4 can be extended by manipulating the spin state of the hot carriers. Our findings suggest a new approach for prolonging hot-carrier cooling in hybrid perovskites, which is conducive to further improving the performance of hot-carrier-based optoelectronic and spintronic devices.
