Operando Raman probing of mode selective electron phonon coupling in two dimensional halide perovskites

Tufan Paul, Helena Boom, Lilian Skokan +8

Electron phonon coupling governs charge transport, carrier relaxation, and polaron formation in halide perovskites, yet its microscopic origin in low dimensional systems remains po…

Chiral Spinterfaces as an Overlooked Component of the Chiral-Induced Spin Selectivity Effect

Franziska Schölzel, Aybüke Gülkaya, Rico Ehrler +11

The chiral-induced spin selectivity (CISS) effect is generally attributed to spin-selective transport through chiral molecules, while the role of the molecule-electrode interface r…

Chemical Origin of Exciton Self-trapping in CsCuX Cesium Copper Halides

Zijin Wu, Shuxia Tao, Geert Brocks

Copper halides Cs3Cu2X5 (X=Cl, Br, I) are promising materials for optoelectronic applications due to their high photoluminescence efficiency, stability, and large Stokes shifts. In…

Halide diffusion in mixed-halide perovskites and heterojunctions

Viren Tyagi, Mike Pols, Geert Brocks +1

Migration of halide defects guides ion transport in metal halide perovskites and controls the kinetics of halide mixing and phase separation. We study the diffusion of halide vacan…

Impact of Metal Cation on Chiral Properties of 2D Halide Perovskites

Mike Pols, Helena Boom, Geert Brocks +2

Chiral two-dimensional (2D) halide perovskites are formed by embedding chiral organic cations in a perovskite crystal structure. The chirality arises from distortions of the 2D met…

Chiral Phonons in 2D Halide Perovskites

Mike Pols, Geert Brocks, Sofía Calero +1

Phonons in chiral crystal structures can be circularly polarized, making them chiral. Chiral phonons carry angular momentum, which is observable in heat currents, and, via coupling…
