In this paper, we have thoroughly reviewed and performed calculations to reveal optoelectronic and transport properties for a potential newcomer, Cs2PdX6 (X = Cl, Br) termed as Cesium Palladium Halides (CPH). Outcome of present computations are compared with available results and a reasonable agreement is recorded. Energy band gap computations performed reveal indirect band gap of 2.29 eV for Cs2PdC16, which substantially reduces to 1.22 eV when `Cl' is replaced by `Br'. Optical absorption spectra investigations performed here, in the energy range from 3 to 5 eV confirms effective utilization of these compounds in solar cells and other optoelectronic applications. In addition, the transport properties computations performed using semi-classical Boltzmann theory, shows constant pattern of thereto power near ambient temperature range (200-500 K), which admits possible utilization of these compounds as low temperature thermoelectric materials. Performed ZT calculations demonstrates reasonably good thermoelectric performance for both materials, as there exist minor variation (0.1) in the values over wide temperature ranges i.e. from 100 to 800 K. Further, detailed analysis of transport properties predicts p-type semiconducting nature of the present series of materials.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><custom3><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Foreign</style></custom3><custom4><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">4.018</style></custom4></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Liu, Zhaoyu</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Bhamu, K.

Ultrafast THz-spectra measure sharp quantum transitions from excitonic Rydberg states, providing weakly bound excitons with a binding energy of similar to 13.5 meV at low temperatures. Ab-initio electronic structure calculations give a direct band gap of 1.64 eV, a dielectric constant of similar to 18, heavy electrons, and light holes, resulting in weakly bound excitons, consistent with the binding energies from the experiment.

At the optimized structural parameters, pressure (0 to 80 GPa) dependent variation in the various thermodynamic properties, i.e. unit cell volume (V), bulk modulus (B), specific heat (Cv), Debye temperature (ӨD), Grǘneisen parameter (γ) and thermal expansion coefficient (α) are calculated for various temperature values. The results predict that the pressure has significant effect on unit cell volume and bulk modulus while the temperature shows negligible effect on both parameters. With increasing temperature thermal expansion coefficient increase while with increasing pressure it decreases. The specific heat remains close to zero for ambient pressure and temperature values and it increases with increasing temperature. It is observed that the pressure has high impact on Debye temperature and Grǘneisen parameter instead of temperature. Debye temperature and Grǘneisen parameter both remains almost constant for the temperature range (0-300K) while Grǘneisen parameter decrease with increasing pressure at constant temperature and Debye temperature increases rapidly with increasing pressure. An increase in Debye temperature with respect to pressure shows that the thermal vibration frequency changes rapidly.</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1</style></issue><work-type><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Journal Article</style></work-type><custom3><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Foreign</style></custom3></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Soni, Amit</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Bhamu, K.

To overcome this aspect, numerous solutions are attempted by researchers which include the development of new environmental friendly lead free double perovskite (DP) photovoltaic materials. Enlightening on the same line, we report first principle calculations on electronic and optical properties of Cs2AgInCl6 solar photovoltaic materials. Present opto-electronic computations for lead free DP compound, have been performed using the full potential linearized augmented plane wave method. In present investigations, we have adopted exchange and correlation potentials prescribed by Perdew et al. and the most accurate Tran-Blaha modified Becke-Johnson. Both exchange and correlation potential computations are performed with and without spin orbit coupling. Results obtained for electronic and optical properties are validated by systematic comparison with available experimental data. Reasonable reconciliation between investigated results and the available experimental data, endorse accuracy of present computations. To identify the effect of strain on energy gap and hence on the optical properties of Cs2AgInCl6 compound, computations of electronic and optical properties have also been performed under the different values of strain application.

The photovoltaic efficiency of the studied materials was assessed using the spectroscopic-limited-maximum-efficiency (SLME) metric as well as the optical properties.

However, its wide bandgap (&amp;gt;3 eV) is not suitable for the solar spectrum and hence reduces its photoelectronic efficiency for device applications. Here we report a significant bandgap reduction from 2.85 eV to 0.65 eV via substitutional doping and its effects on the optoelectronic and opto-thermoelectric properties from a first-principles study. The results predict that Sn/Pb and Ga and Cu co-doping will enhance the density of states significantly near the valence band maximum (VBM) and thus reduce the bandgap via shifting the VBM upward, while alkali metals (K/Rb) slightly increase the bandgap. A strong absorption peak near the Shockley-Queisser limit is observed in the co-doped case, while in the Sn/Pb-doped case, we notice a peak in the middle of the visible region of the solar spectrum. The nature of the bandgap is indirect with Cu-Ga/Pb/Sn doping, and a significant reduction in the bandgap, from 2.85 eV to 0.65 eV, is observed in the case of Ga-Cu co-doping. We observe a significant increase in the power factor (PF) (2.03 mW m(-1) K-2) for the n-type carrier after Pb-doping, which is similar to 3.5 times higher than in the pristine case (0.6 mW m (-1) K-2) at 500 K.&lt;/p&gt;
