Abstract

Zero-dimensional (0D) organic-inorganic hybrid metal halides (OIHMHs) have received extensive attention due to their excellent photoelectric properties. Herein, a new 0D OIHMH single crystal, (C25H46N)2SbCl5, has been synthesized by slow antisolvent diffusion. In this crystal structure, C25H46N+ (C25H46N+ = Cetyldimethylbenzylammonium cations) cations separated SbCl52− to form a 0D square pyramid structure. (C25H46N)2SbCl5 single crystals (SCs) manifest bright orange-yellow dual-emission bands at 472 and 616 nm, while having a high photoluminescent quantum yield of 97.5 %. The lifetime of high energy (HE) emission and low energy (LE) emission at room temperature is 9.73 ns and 4.61 μs, respectively. Based on lifetime differences and temperature-dependent spectra, the HE emission band is ascribed to singlet self-trapped excitons (STEs), while the LE emission band with a broad full width at half maxima of 136 nm can be attributed to triplet STEs. (C25H46N)2SbCl5 appeared anti-thermal quenching behavior. In accordance with the luminescence characteristics of (C25H46N)2SbCl5, a warm white light-emitting diode device was fabricated with the correlated color temperature of 3410 K, the relevant color coordinate of (0.41, 0.39) and the color rendering index of 95.1, demonstrating (C25H46N)2SbCl5 a promising phosphor for solid-state light-emitting application.
