Effect of excess PbBr2 on photoluminescence spectra of CH3NH3PbBr3 perovskite particles at room temperature
2016
The organic-inorganic halide perovskites have promising applications in light-emitting devices besides solar cells. We here prepare CH3NH3PbBr3 perovskite particles on SiO2 substrates and find that the photoluminescence (PL) spectrum of the particles at room temperature has two peaks, locating at 529 and 549 nm, respectively, much different from that of the corresponding films prepared on the oxygen plasma-cleaned SiO2 substrates, which has a single peak. The double peaks have different temperature-dependence behaviors. By the x-ray diffraction and energy dispersive x-ray spectroscopy analyses, excess PbBr2 is detected inside the particles. We deduce that such excess PbBr2 has introduced shallow level defects. It is concluded that band-to-band recombination and these defects result in the double-peaked feature of the PL spectra of CH3NH3PbBr3 particles at room temperature.
