Two-dimensional organic-inorganic hybrid perovskites (2DHPs) have tunable structural and optical properties, with the organic cation playing a key role. Despite excitons residing in the metal-halide layers, the organic and inorganic frameworks must be considered as a whole to fully understand the photophysics. The cation-induced distortion and disorder in the inorganic lattice are correlated with the resulting optical properties.
Two-dimensional organic-inorganic hybrid perovskites (2DHPs) consist of alternating anionic metal-halide and cationic organic layers. They have widely tunable structural and optical properties. We review the role of the organic cation in defining the structural and optical properties of 2DHPs through the example of lead iodide 2DHPs. Even though excitons reside in the metal-halide layers, the organic and inorganic frameworks cannot be separated-they must be considered as a single unit to fully understand the photophysics of 2DHPs. We correlate cation-induced distortion and disorder in the inorganic lattice with the resulting optical properties. We also discuss the role of the cation in creating and altering the discrete excitonic structure that appears at cryogenic temperatures in some 2DHPs, including the cation-dependent presence of hot-exciton photoluminescence. We conclude our review with an outlook for 2DHPs, highlighting existing gaps in fundamental knowledge as well as potential future applications.
