Metal halide perovskites are promising semiconductor materials for photovoltaic devices with solar cell efficiencies soaring over 20%, but understanding the fundamental operational principles are lagging behind. One example is the role and influence of lead iodide (PbI2) reportedly being both beneficial and detrimental for a device. Herein, we present a study on the impact of lead iodide on the charge-carrier recombination kinetics in methylammonium lead triiodide (MAPbI3) thin films. We simultaneously acquire spectrally-resolved photoluminescence quantum yield and time-resolved photoluminescence lifetime at excitation wavelengths ranging from 450 nm to 780 nm during hours of light-soaking, and identify a unique radiative recombination mechanism occurring at the PbI2/MAPbI3 interface when charge carriers are generated in PbI2. We thereby provide important insight into the long-debated question of whether excess PbI2 is beneficial or detrimental for charge carrier dynamics in perovskite solar absorber materials.
