Applications

PbI2 is the backbone of iodide perovskite chemistry: combined with FAI, MAI or cesium salts it forms the ABX3 absorber in both one-step and sequential deposition. Precursor purity correlates directly with defect density and device reproducibility, which is why high-grade PbI2 is standard in record-efficiency work.

  • FAPbI3, MAPbI3 and triple-cation absorber formation
  • Two-step sequential deposition (PbI2 conversion)
  • Single-crystal growth and radiation detector studies
