Broadband Emission in Hybrid Organic-Inorganic Halides of Group 12 Metals.

ABSTRACT: We report syntheses, crystal and electronic structures, and characterization of three new hybrid organic-inorganic halides (R)ZnBr₃(DMSO), (R)₂CdBr₄·DMSO, and (R)CdI₃(DMSO) (where (R) = C₆(CH₃)₅CH₂N(CH₃)₃, and DMSO = dimethyl sulfoxide). The compounds can be conveniently prepared as single crystals and bulk polycrystalline powders using a DMSO-methanol solvent system. On the basis of the single-crystal X-ray diffraction results carried out at room temperature and 100 K, all compounds have zero-dimensional (0D) crystal structures featuring alternating layers of bulky organic cations and molecular inorganic anions based on a tetrahedral coordination around group 12 metal cations.
