Two-dimensional organic-inorganic molecular cocrystal.

ABSTRACT: Molecular cocrystal engineering has emerged as an efficient approach to achieving multiple functionalities and novel applications in photonics and optoelectronics. However, the reported two-dimensional (2D) molecular cocrystals are predominantly composed of organic molecules, whereas the preparation of organic-inorganic molecular cocrystals (OIMCs) still remains challenging. Here, we achieved the self-assembly of the 2D OIMC C₆₀·2P₄S₃ for the first time, which has a stable layered packing arrangement, driven by π-π interactions and C-P contacts between these two cage molecules. We found that the strong C-P contacts suppress non-radiative transitions and enhance vibrational coupling, resulting in an efficient emission with a quantum yield of 13.24%. Unlike t
