The first part of the presentation introduces the phenomenon of mixed ionic-electronic conductivity in solids and discusses defect-chemical implications and measuring techniques.

The second part of the presentation summarizes parts of our work on bulk ion conductivity in halide perovskites. It discusses contributions from halide ions and methylammonium cations, and their relevance for polarization phenomena and stability [1]. The finding that light enhances the ion conductivity in the iodides [2] is of broad interest and has the potential to lead to novel “opto-ionic” devices [3]. The fact that bromides do not show this effect can offer a simple explanation for the light-induced demixing [4].

The third part of the presentation refers to interfaces. It is shown that mobility of ions and the significant fraction of ionic charge carriers gives rise to ionic built-in potentials, a point that had not been addressed in the photovoltaic literature and might lead to a paradigm change in the understanding of photoactive interfaces [5].

The presentation includes conventional hybrid perovskites, but also “hollow perovskites” [6] and 2D perovskites [7].
