Abstract
Similar to the three-dimensional perovskites, two-dimensional (2D) layered lead halide perovskites constitute a particular class of semiconductor materials in the family of perovskites. This article reports syntheses of needle-like bundles of 2D perovskite (C6H5CH2NH3)2PbI4 by a two-step processing technique. The concentration of C6H5CH2NH3I precursor has a great influence on the product, structural and compositional analyses prove the phase and stoichiometry of 2D perovskite (C6H5CH2NH3)2PbI4 with high crystallinity for the needle bundles synthesized with concentration of C6H5CH2NH3I higher than 25 mg/mL. Intensive studies on the growth mechanism of the products were carried out; we believe the involvement of C6H5CH2NH3+ group determines the layered structure and the final morphology of the products. Photoluminescence measurement show that the needles possess a band-edge emission peak centering around 540 nm and a narrow full width at half maximum of about 30 nm.
