Robust excitonic light emission in 2D tin halide perovskites by weak excited state polaronic effect.

ABSTRACT: 2D perovskites hold immense promise in optoelectronics due to their strongly bound electron-hole pairs (i.e., excitons). While exciton polaron from interplay between exciton and lattice has been established in 2D lead-based perovskites, the exciton nature and behavior in the emerging 2D tin-based perovskites remains unclear. By combining spin-resolved ultrafast spectroscopy and sophisticated theoretical calculations, we reveal 2D tin-based perovskites as genuine excitonic semiconductors with weak polaronic screening effect and persistent Coulomb interaction, thanks to weak exciton-phonon coupling. We determine an excited state exciton binding energy of ~0.18 eV in n = 2 tin iodide perovskites, nearly twice of that in lead counterpart, despite of same large value of ~0.2 eV from steady stat
