Optical spectroscopy of two-dimensional layered $(C_{6}H_{5}C_{2}H_{4}-NH_{3})_{2}-PbI_{4}$ perovskite

Abstract

We report on optical spectroscopy (photoluminescence and photoluminescence excitation) on two-dimensional self-organized layers of $(C_{6}H_{5}C_{2}H_{4}-NH_{3})_{2}PbI_{4}$ perovskite. Temperature and excitation power dependance of the optical spectra gives a new insight into the excitonic and phononic properties of this hybrid organic/inorganic semiconductor. In particular, exciton-phonon interaction is found to be more than one order of magnitude higher than in GaAs QWs. As a result, photoluminescence emission lines have to be interpreted in the framework of a polaron model.
