Tunable band gaps, easy processing, composition engineering, and enhanced performance make mixed-cation perovskites promising as light absorbers in third generation solar cells. However, stability challenges remain in understanding the underlying mechanisms. This study emphasizes the importance of accurately predicting structural and electronic properties. While density functional theory (DFT) is the preferred method for addressing these, standard exchange-correlation functionals often fail to reproduce the band structure. Therefore, we propose the DFT-1/2 method, which is applied to single- and mixed-cation systems. We explore how the choice of the A-cation modifies the Pb-I scaffold. We find that the addition of Cs and MA to FAPbI3 reduces the dispersion in the scaffold, which has a high potential to reduce the migration of iodide and thus improves the structural stability. Additionally, we compare Born effective charges with and without the SOC effect and the DFT-1/2 approach [1]. [1] M. Moaddeli et al, Phys. Chem. Chem. Phys. 25, 25511 (2023).
