Abstract
Two-dimensional (2D) lead halide perovskites with better chemical stability and tunable dimensionality offer new opportunities to design optoelectronic devices. We have probed the transient absorption behavior of 2D lead halide (bromide and iodide) perovskites of different dimensionality, prepared by varying the ratio of methylammonium:phenylethylammonium cation. With decreasing dimensionality (n = ∞ → 1), we observe a blue shift in transient absorption bleach in agreement with the trend observed with the shift in the excitonic peak. The lifetime of the charge carriers decreased with decreasing layer thickness. The dependence of charge carrier lifetime on the 2D layers as well as the halide ion composition shows the dominance of excitonic binding energy on the charge carrier recombination in 2D perovskites. The excited-state behavior of 2D perovskites discussed in this study shows the need to modulate the layer dimensionality to obtain desired optoelectronic properties.
