Abstract

Lead halide-based materials, especially perovskites, have been of great interest for applications in optoelectronic devices. What brought such notoriety to perovskites was the rapid increase in efficiency of photovoltaic devices whose active layers are made of these materials. As a result, analogue materials have become equally important.However, among the vast collection of works published with these materials, little is known about their nucleation and growth mechanisms, especially in the early stages of their formation. In order to elucidate this growth dynamics and provide more accurate information to the scientific community, the purpose of this work is to study the synthesis reactions of lead halide perovskites and their analogues in situ with the new beamline at Sirius, Sagui. These in situ experiments will provide kinetic and thermodynamic data at all reaction stages, corroborating the better control and processing of these materials for future applications in optoelectronic devices.
