RESUMO
Cyclic organic amines are emerging as excellent building blocks to assemble organic-inorganic hybrid phase transition materials due to their flexible cyclic structure. Here, we have assembled a 1D organic-inorganic hybrid dielectric material C5 H6 NOPbBr3 (1) by alloying the cyclic organic amine 3-hydroxypyridine. 1 displays a remarkable switchable dielectric response induced by an order-disorder transformation of the organic moiety, this transformation behaviour is confirmed by DSC and Hirshfeld surface measurements. More interestingly, 1 has a narrowband emission (FWHM=4.64â nm) at 590â nm; FWHM is a major quality figure for narrowband photodetectors. In addition, 1 exhibits semiconducting properties with an indirect bandgap of 2.78â eV by the analysis of the UV-Vis absorption results.
RESUMO
A novel organic-inorganic hybrid perovskite crystal, [ClC6H4(CH2)2NH3]2CuBr4 (1), having experienced an invertible high-temperature phase transition near Tc (the Curie temperature Tc = 355 K), has been successfully synthesized. The phase-transition characteristics for compound 1 are thoroughly revealed by specific heat capacity (Cp), differential thermal analysis, and differential scanning calorimetry tests, possessing 16 K broad thermal hysteresis. Multiple-temperature powder X-ray diffraction analysis further proves the phase-transition behavior of compound 1. Moreover, compound 1 exhibits a significant steplike dielectric response near Tc, revealing that it can be deemed to be a promising dielectric switching material. The variable-temperature fluorescence experiments show distinct photoluminescence (PL) changes of compound 1. Further investigation and calculation disclose that the fluorescence lifetime of compound 1 can reach as long as 55.46 µs, indicating that it can be a potential PL material. All of these researches contribute a substitutable avenue in the design and construction of neoteric phase-transition compounds combining high Curie temperature and PL properties.
RESUMO
The multifunctional two-dimensional (2D) organic-inorganic hybrid perovskites have potential applications in many fields, such as, semiconductor, energy storage and fluorescent device etc. Here, a 2D Ruddlesden-Popper (RP) perovskite (IPA)2 (FA)Pb2 I7 (1, IPA+ =C3 H9 NI+ , FA+ =CN2 H5 + ) is determined for its photophysical properties. Strikingly, 1 reveals a solid reversible phase transition with Tc of 382â K accompanied by giant entropy change of 40â J mol-1 K-1 . Further optical investigations indicate that 1 reveals a narrow direct bandgap (2.024â eV) attributed to the slight bending of I-Pb-I edge and inorganic [Pb2 I7 ]n layer and a superior photoluminescence (PL) emission with super long lifetime of 0.1607â ms. It is believed that this work will pave an avenue to further design multifunctional semiconductors that combines energy storage and photoelectric materials.
RESUMO
Due to the existence of some cross properties such as SHG (second-harmonic generation), ferroelectricity, piezoelectricity, and thermoelectricity, molecular ferroelectrics have been widely used as a composite multipurpose material. Particularly, organic-inorganic molecular ferroelectrics have received much interest recently because of their unique flexible structures, friendly environment, ease of synthesis, etc. Also, these hybrids show great flexibility in band-gap engineering. Here we report a new molecular halide, [C6H13N3SbBr5]n (1; C6H13N3 = 1-(3-aminopropyl)imidazole), which experiences a unique ferroelectric to paraelectric phase transition at around 230 K from space group P21 to P21/c. Significantly, compound 1 exhibits a narrow band gap with a value of 2.52 eV, large pronounced SHG-active, perfect rectangle hysteresis loops with a large spontaneous polarization of 6.86 µC/cm2. DSC (differential scanning calorimetry) and dielectric dependence on temperature tests and the volume change before and after the phase transition show that compound 1 is characterized by a second-order phase transition. These findings will contribute to the multifunctional materials field of organic-inorganic hybrids.
