Ultrathin lead bromide perovskite platelets spotted with europium(ii) bromide dots

Nanoscale. 2019 Oct 10;11(39):18065-18070. doi: 10.1039/c9nr06631d.

Abstract

We describe here the preparation of a novel nanohybrid comprising a two-layer cesium lead bromide nanoplatelet, [CsPbBr3]PbBr4 NPL, containing europium(ii) bromide (EuBr2) nanodots, by ultrasound/heating treatment of toluene dispersions of the CsPbBr3 nanomaterial in the presence of EuBr2 nanodots. The hybrid nanoplatelets exhibit strong excitonic and narrow emission peaks characteristic of ultrathin NPLs at 430 and 436 nm, respectively.
