Hybrid organic–inorganic perovskites (HOIPs) have become an important class of semiconductors for solar cells and other optoelectronic applications. Electron–phonon coupling plays a critical role in all optoelectronic devices, and although the lattice dynamics and phonon frequencies of HOIPs have been well studied, little attention has been given to phonon lifetimes. We report high-precision momentum-resolved measurements of acoustic phonon lifetimes in the hybrid perovskite methylammonium lead iodide (MAPI), using inelastic neutron spectroscopy to provide high-energy resolution and fully deuterated single crystals to reduce incoherent scattering from hydrogen. Our measurements reveal extremely short lifetimes on the order of picoseconds, corresponding to nanometer mean free paths and demonstrating that acoustic phonons are unable to dissipate heat efficiently. Lattice-dynamics calculations using ab initio third-order perturbation theory indicate that the short lifetimes stem from strong three-phonon interactions and a high density of low-energy optical phonon modes related to the degrees of freedom of the organic cation. Such short lifetimes have significant implications for electron–phonon coupling in MAPI and other HOIPs, with direct impacts on optoelectronic devices both in the cooling of hot carriers and in the transport and recombination of band edge carriers. These findings illustrate a fundamental difference between HOIPs and conventional photovoltaic semiconductors and demonstrate the importance of understanding lattice dynamics in the effort to develop metal halide perovskite optoelectronic devices.

We investigated the lattice dynamics and electron-phonon coupling (EPC) of superhard material OsB2by first-principles linear response calculations. The calculated EPC parameters for the optical phonon modes at Г indicate that the heavy Os atoms play the most important role in deciding the superconducting behavior, and there are sizeable contributions from lighter B atoms to EPC. Our calculated EPC constant is 0.42, and the estimated superconducting transition temperatureTcis 2.1 K using the Coulomb pseudopotentialμ*=0.125, in excellent agreement with the experimental ones.

New Type

We consider a model of anyons—fermions coupled to a statistical gauge field—also coupled to phonons via the usual electron-phonon coupling. We study the phonon response when the system is in the superconducting anyon ground state and show the existence of peaks in the phonon spectral function whose frequencies shift with carrier concentration. We suggest that when the electron-phonon coupling is the dominant effect, there could arise a new type of BCS ground state with a spontaneously generated P and T violating supercurrent, that expels the statistical magnetic field.
