摘要
(MA)_2Pb(SCN)_2I_2, a new two-dimensional(2D) perovskite material, was reported as a promising candidate to solve the stability issues that the 3D perovskite is facing now.But the stability of MA_2Pb(SCN)_2I_2 was found controversial in later researches.Probing the degradation mechanism is critical to understand the factors on the stability of perovskite.In this work, the thermal degradation mechanism of(MA)_2Pb(SCN)_2I_2 was revealed by in-situ X-ray diffraction(XRD) and coupled thermogravimetry–mass spectrometry analysis.The decomposition of(MA)_2Pb(SCN)_2I_2 has been proved experimentally to be more sophisticated than MAPbI_3, involving four stages and multi-reactions from room temperature to above 500 ℃.First, a reversible process of solid phase separation without any weight loss can be observed in the first stage below 100 ℃.The thermal decomposition of solid compounds with gas evolution occurs in second stage between 100 ℃ and 200 ℃ as two thiocyanates of CH_3SCN and HSCN arise, resulting in ~ 20.5% weight loss as a consequence.Degradations take place extensively in the third and fourth stages, which correspond to the decomposition of MAPbI_3 and sublimation of two lead salts of PbI_2 and Pb(SCN)_2, respectively.Based on experimental results and theoretical calculations, the degradation pathways in each stage have been revealed in-detail, which confirms that the 2D(MA)_2Pb(SCN)_2I_2 actually is not stable when serving as photo-absorber in PSCs.Meanwhile, our work offers clear interpretation why SCN-can hardly be maintained in 3D perovskite.
