First-principles calculation of the bulk photovoltaic effect in bismuth ferrite.
We compute the bulk photovoltaic effect (BPVE) in BiFeO(3) using first-principles shift current theory, finding good agreement with experimental results. Furthermore, we reconcile apparently contradictory observations: by examining the contributions of all photovoltaic response tensor components and accounting for the geometry and ferroelectric domain structure of the experimental system, we ex...
متن کاملFirst-principles calculation of the bulk photovoltaic effect in the polar compounds LiAsS2, LiAsSe2, and NaAsSe2.
We calculate the shift current response, which has been identified as the dominant mechanism for the bulk photovoltaic effect, for the polar compounds LiAsS2, LiAsSe2, and NaAsSe2. We find that the magnitudes of the photovoltaic responses in the visible range for these compounds exceed the maximum response obtained for BiFeO3 by 10-20 times. We correlate the high shift current response with the...
متن کاملFirst-Principles Calculation of the Bulk Photovoltaic Effect in CH3NH3PbI3 and CH3NH3PbI(3-x)Cl(x).
Hybrid halide perovskites exhibit nearly 20% power conversion efficiency, but the origin of their high efficiency is still unknown. Here, we compute the shift current, a dominant mechanism of the bulk photovoltaic (PV) effect for ferroelectric photovoltaics, in CH₃NH₃PbI₃ and CH₃NH₃PbI(3-x)Cl(x) from first-principles. We find that these materials give approximately three times larger shift curr...
متن کاملFirst - principles calculation of the bulk photovoltaic effect in KNbO 3 and ( K , Ba ) ( Ni , Nb ) O 3 − δ
The connection between noncentrosymmetric materials’ structure, electronic structure, and bulk photovoltaic performance remains not well understood. In particular, it is still unclear which photovoltaic (PV) mechanisms are relevant for the recently demonstrated visible-light ferroelectric photovoltaic (K,Ba)(Ni,Nb)O3−δ . In this paper, we study the bulk photovoltaic effect (BPVE) of (K,Ba)(Ni,N...
متن کاملFirst principles calculation of the shift current photovoltaic effect in ferroelectrics.
We calculate the bulk photovoltaic response of the ferroelectrics BaTiO(3) and PbTiO(3) from first principles by applying the "shift current" theory to the electronic structure from density functional theory. The first principles results for BaTiO(3) reproduce experimental photocurrent direction and magnitude as a function of light frequency, as well as the dependence of current on light polari...
