Abstract:
Perovskite hybrids of lead organometal halides, most notably CH3NH3PbI3, have shown extremely promising applications in the field of optoelectronics, because of their remarkable semiconducting and light-absorbing properties. However, two key issuesthe toxicity of lead and the poor ambient instabilitieshave restrained their further commercialization. Herein, we have designed a new stable polar lead-free hybrid material by utilizing the strategy of cation substitution, [(CH3)(3)N](3)Bi2I9 (1), which adopts the 0D inorganic perovskite-like architecture by face-sharing BiI6 octahedra. It is interesting that 1 displays excellent absorbing properties with a narrow optical band gap of approximate to 2.0eV, and positive temperature-dependent conductivity confirms its semiconducting behaviors. In addition, 1 has good phase stability against decomposition under ambient conditions, much superior to that of CH3NH3PbI3. This work suggests the potential of 1 as a lead-free semiconducting absorber with high phase stability for photoelectric applications.
