General description

Lead(II) iodide is a wide band gap(2.32 eV)semiconductor material with unique properties such as high resistivity, a widetemperature range (−200 °C up to +130 °C), and good chemical stability.

Application

Lead(II)iodide can be used as a starting material to prepare:

  • Polycrystalline α-FAPbI3 thin films by solution processing method. These polycrystalline thin films are applicable as photodetectors.
  • Organic/inorganic hybrid 2D perovskite materials, applicable in solar cells.
It can also be used to fabricate a gamma-ray detector at room temperature.

Dye-sensitized solar cells as a promising, low-cost photovoltaic technology.

Colloidal quantum dots (CQDs) are semiconducting crystals of only a few nanometers (ca. 2–12 nm) coated with ligand/surfactant molecules to help prevent agglomeration.

Controlled synthesis of metal clusters regulates ligands and atoms, advancing metal nanomaterial synthesis.

Next generation solar cells have the potential to achieve conversion efficiencies beyond the Shockley-Queisser (S-Q) limit while also significantly lowering production costs.
