Abstract

In this work we investigate the excitonic properties of (4-FC6H4C2H4NH3)2PbI4 hybrid organic/inorganic thin films. We first use a standard point-by-point photoluminescence mapping. The maps formed using the photoluminescence intensity, line width, and broadening reveal the presence of structural defects. Using a statistical treatment of the data we found that the spatial fluctuations of the photoluminescence peak wavelengths are rather small compared to the photoluminescence line width. Moreover, we report the first direct observation of spatially resolved excitonic photoluminescence in this type of materials using dark-field imaging of white-light pumped photoluminescence. Owing to the rapid acquisition time of the dark-field images, their temperature dependence was studied, and the thermal behavior of the photoluminescence was investigated using this technique. We show that photoluminescence mapping combined with dark-field imaging and spectroscopy provides valuable information on the excitonic properties of hybrid organic/inorganic thin films.
