Comment on "Resolving spatial and energetic distributions of trap states in metal halide perovskite solar cells"
Abstract
Ni et al. report minimum bulk trap densities of 1011 cm-3 and 1-4 orders change in interfacial trap densities derived from drive-level capacitance profiling of lead halide perovskites. From basic electrostatic arguments, we show that such bulk trap densities cannot be resolved for a p-i-n perovskite solar cell for the reported layer thicknesses, while the apparent interfacial charge densities are a consequence of the geometrical capacitance and of charge injection into the perovskite layer.
