High‐Performance Tin‐Halide Perovskite Transistors Enabled by Multiple A‐Cation Engineering

Abstract

AbstractMetal‐halide perovskite semiconductors have garnered great attention in optoelectronic devices due to their remarkable properties and processing capabilities. Among them, tin (Sn2+) perovskites stand out as promising candidates for use as channel layers in high‐performance p‐channel thin‐film transistors (TFTs) owing to their excellent hole transport property. In this study, a multi A‐cation approach is applied to pure Sn2+ perovskite, incorporating a small amount (7 mol%) of bulky PEA+ cation. This addition greatly improved the crystallinity and orientation of 3D FA0.9Cs0.1SnI3 perovskite, leading to optimized p‐channel Sn2+‐perovskite TFT with a hole mobility of ≈18 cm2 V−1 s−1, a high on/off current ratio of 108, and a small subthreshold swing of 0.5 V dec−1. These TFTs also exhibit a low contact resistance of 87 Ω·cm, attributed to the improved electrode/perovskite channel interface. Furthermore, the TFTs are utilized as an electrical characterization platform to study the charge transport properties and interfacial defects using the low‐frequency noise method, providing insights into the interface properties of perovskite electronic devices.
