Title: Spin-optoelectronic devices based on hybrid organic-inorganic trihalide perovskites

Abstract

Recently the hybrid organic-inorganic trihalide perovskites have shown remarkable performance as active layers in photovoltaic and other optoelectronic devices. However, their spin characteristic properties have not been fully studied, although due to the relatively large spin-orbit coupling these materials may show great promise for spintronic applications. Here we demonstrate spin-polarized carrier injection into methylammonium lead bromide films from metallic ferromagnetic electrodes in two spintronic-based devices: a ‘spin light emitting diode’ that results in circularly polarized electroluminescence emission; and a ‘vertical spin valve’ that shows giant magnetoresistance. In addition, we also apply a magnetic field perpendicular to the injected spins orientation for measuring the ‘Hanle effect’, from which we obtain a relatively long spin lifetime for the electrically injected carriers. Our measurements initiate the field of hybrid perovskites spin-related optoelectronic applications.

Fig. 1 Fig. 1: Circular polarization of the PL and optical Hanle effect in MAPbBr3. a Schematic of the circularly polarized excitation (σ+) and polarized PL emission components, PL(σ+) and P(σ−) in MAPbBr3. T2 and T3 are two exciton states that can emit circularly polarized PL and have spin-dependent optical transitions nearmore » the MAPbBr3 optical gap. Here PL(σ+) > PL(σ−), as marked by a heavier bar underneath the T2 label. Spin relaxation process couples the two exciton states with spin lifetime,τs. b PL(σ+) and PL(σ−) emission spectra in MAPbBr3 at steady state measured at 10 K. The degree of circular polarization, PPL= [PL(σ+)− PL(σ−)]/[PL(σ+)+ PL(σ−)] of 3.1% is obtained. c Schematic set-up for measuring the optical Hanle effect. A magnetic field, Bz perpendicular to the PL light propagation direction is applied, which causes spin precession that leads to diminishing circular polarization of PL. d The PPL(Bz) response measured at 10 K. The red solid line is a fit using Eq. (1), from which we obtained an effective exciton spin lifetime, Ts= 491 ± 17 ps« less
