Mapping Surface‐Defect and Ions Migration in Mixed‐Cation Perovskite Crystals

Single crystal perovskites have garnered significant attention as potential replacements for existing absorber layer materials. Despite the extensive investigations on their photoinduced charge-carriers dynamics, most of the time-resolved techniques focus on bulk properties, neglecting surface characteristic which plays a crucial role for their optoelectronic performance. Herein, 4D ultrafast scanning electron microscopy (4D-USEM) is utilized to probing the photogenerated carrier transport at the first few nanometers, alongside density functional theory (DFT) to track both defect centers and ions migration. Two compositions of mixed cation are investigated: FA
