| contents | All inorganic halide perovskites offer promising optoelectronic properties at low cost, but their structural softness and thermal instability limit applications. Density functional theory using the FP-LAPW method (WIEN2k) was used to study Ni2+/Pr3+ co-doping in CsPbCl3. Results show Ni2+ substitutes for Pb2+ at the B-site and Pr3+ for Cs at the A-site, keeping charge balance. Co-doping stabilizes the lattice, raises formation energies of halogen and metal vacancies, and reduces deep defect levels in the band gap. Phonon dispersion confirms that both pristine and co-doped CsPbCl3 are dynamically stable. Ni2+/Pr3+ co-doping suppresses low-energy vibrations and causes mode splitting in the 3 to 5 THz range, increasing phonon scattering and lowering lattice thermal conductivity. Mechanical analysis reveals higher elastic constants and bulk modulus, while ductility remains unchanged. Electronic structure calculations reveal Ni-3d and Pr-4f states at the band edges, reducing effective carrier mass and passivating vacancy states. Optical absorption is red-shifted, and the high-frequency (ε = 2.4) and low-frequency (ε = 7.4) dielectric constants are distinct. Transport analysis finds higher carrier mobility due to lighter effective masses. Altogether, Ni2+/Pr3+ co-doping reduces defect concentrations and improves the optoelectronic properties of CsPbCl3. |
