Title: Lei Pan: Inventor in Perovskite Crystal Growth
Introduction
Lei Pan is an inventor associated with Northwestern University in Evanston, Illinois. Her work includes methods for growing large single crystals of all-inorganic and hybrid organic-inorganic cesium lead bromide perovskites.
Latest Patents
Pan is named on 1 patent: “Methods of Growing Large Crystals of All-Inorganic and Hybrid Organic-Inorganic Cesium Lead Bromide Perovskites.” The patent describes growing large, free-standing single crystals of (FAₓCs₁₋ₓ)PbBr₃ perovskites, where 0 ≤ x < 1, from solution. It uses tertiary or ternary alkyl ammonium salts, weak organic acids, or a combination of these additives with perovskite precursors. Under the described conditions, slow evaporation or inverse temperature crystallization can produce larger crystals than growth without the additives.
Career Highlights
Pan’s patent work focuses on improving solution-based crystal growth. The approach may support research and development involving perovskite materials by enabling the production of larger single crystals.
Collaborations
Her listed coworkers include Mercouri G. Kanatzidis and Yucheng Liu. The patent reflects collaborative research connected with Northwestern University.
Conclusion
Lei Pan’s patent highlights an additive-based method for growing larger cesium lead bromide perovskite crystals and represents her contribution to materials research at Northwestern University.
