Abstract

The performance of perovskite nanocrystals (NCs) in optoelectronics and photocatalysis is severely limited by the presence of large amounts of crystal boundaries in NCs film that greatly restricts energy transfer. Creating heterostructures based on perovskite NCs and 2D materials is a common approach to improve the energy transport at the perovskite/2D materials interface. Herein, methylamine lead bromide (MAPbBr3 , MA: CH3 NH3 + ) perovskite NCs are homogeneously deposited on highly conductive few-layer MXene (Ti3 C2 Tx ) nanosheets to form heterostructures through an in situ solution growth method. An optimal mixed solvent ratio is essential to realize the growth of perovskite NCs on Ti3 C2 Tx nanosheets. Time-resolved photoluminescence spectroscopy, transient absorption spectroscopy, and the photoresponse of electron- and hole-only photoelectric conversion devices reveal the interfacial energy transfer behavior within MAPbBr3 /Ti3 C2 Tx heterostructures. The present investigation may provide a useful guide toward use of halide perovskite/2D material heterostructures in applications such as photocatalysis as well as optoelectronics.
