Abstract

We report the band-like\ntransport of photogenerated charge carriers\nwithin all-inorganic black γ-phase CsPbI3 (γ-CsPbI3) thin films, with local mobilities up to 270 ± 44 cm2V–1s–1 recorded using\nterahertz (THz) spectroscopy at room temperature. Temperature-dependent,\nhigh-frequency photoconductivity measurements indicate that large\npolaron formation governs charge carrier transport, following the\nFeynman polaron model. The mobility values derived using THz spectroscopy\nare nearly 1 order of magnitude higher than that reported for hybrid\norganic–inorganic lead halide perovskites and approach the\ntheoretical limit for polarons scattering from longitudinal optical\n(LO) phonons. Our results identify γ-CsPbI3 as a\nfascinating all-inorganic perovskite semiconductor with high charge\ncarrier mobility for optoelectronics and reveal the effect of polaron\nformation on charge transport properties.
