Abstract

By combining the photovoltaic and electrochemical properties of organo-metal hybrid perovskite materials in a single device, a novel photobattery technology is proposed. Utilising the photovoltaic performance of perovskite materials in combination with lithium ion intercalation reactions, a device with the ability both to convert light to electrochemical energy and store it is demonstrated. The motivation for such a device will be discussed, with its inherent impact in areas such as off-grid energy solutions. The fabrication techniques are described and characterisation techniques common to both photovoltaic and electrochemical disciplines, with their recent results are discussed. Modifications are made to conventional electrochemical coin cells and pouch cells, in order to facilitate optical access to the electrode material. Using in-operando x-ray diffraction and optical probing, the fundamental mechanisms of charge storage and ion conversion are investigated.
