Investigating the effects of spin-orbit coupling and ferroelectricity on inorganic Germanium iodide perovskite |
要旨(英語) |
Recently, metal halide perovskites caught attention as promising candidates for next-generation solar cells. Among them, a ferroelectric semiconductor, CsGeI3, possesses several unique properties. This material exhibits a spontaneous polarization of 20 μC/cm2, which is comparable to that of BaTiO3: 26 μC/cm2[1], and retains a relatively low band gap energy ~1.6 eV at room temperature unlike other ferroelectric materials [2]. In relation to these properties, band topology-induced phenomena have been predicted. The Rashba-Dresselhaus effect due to the spin-orbit coupling and the lack of the inversion symmetry is one of the predicted phenomena, where the Rashba splitting will occur at the conduction band minimum with the Rashba coefficient of ~ 0.93 eV・Å[3] (ex. BiTeI: 3.85 eV・Å[4]).
In this research, I investigate the influence of ferroelectricity and spin-orbit coupling on the band topology of CsGeI3 via spectroscopy under high magnetic fields. A key physical phenomenon in my experiments is the formation of Landau levels – discrete energy levels resulting from quantized cyclotron motion in magnetic fields. The observed field dependence of these energy levels enables us to estimate the effective mass of carriers and the effect of spin-orbit coupling. In this presentation, I will show the recent progress of my research.
