Abstract

he metal halide perovskites are attracting much attention due to their potential applications in optoelectronic devices. Herein, we review and calculate a new avenue for Cs 2 PdCl 4 Br 2 perovskites by computing its electronic and optical properties to show its candidature in optoelectronics. For the computation of electronic and optical properties, we have used modified Becke Johnson approximation available in Wien2k code, based on full potential linearised augmented plane wave method. Investigated electronic and optical properties show that Cs 2 PdCl 4 Br 2 has the indirect band gap of 1.70 eV. The significant intense peaks in absorption spectra between energy range 2-3 eV reveals the utility of this compound in solar cells and other optoelectronic devices.
