Abstract

Heterostructures in nanoparticles challenge our common understanding of interfaces due to quantum confinement and size effects, giving rise to synergistic properties. An alternating heterostructure in which multiple and reoccurring interfaces appear in a single nanocrystal is hypothesized to accentuate such properties. We present a colloidal synthesis for perovskite layered heterostructure nanoparticles with a (PbBr2)2(AMTP)2PbBr4 composition. By varying the synthetic parameters, such as synthesis temperature, solvent, and selection of precursors, we control particle size, shape, and product priority. The structures are validated by X-ray and electron diffraction techniques. The heterostructure nanoparticles' main optical feature is a broad emission peak, showing the same range of wavelengths compared to the bulk sample.
