High Excitation Intensity Opens a New Trapping Channel in Organic-Inorganic Hybrid Perovskite Nanoparticles
(
American Chemical Society
, 2016 , Article)
We investigated the excited-state dynamics of CH3NH3PbBr3 perovskite nanoparticles (NPs) and bulk crystals under various excitation intensity regimes using transient absorption spectroscopy. We confirmed the sub-band gap ...
