Abstract

Nanocrystals of formamidinium lead bromide perovskite (FAPbBr3) self-assemble into clusters in powder and film samples and provide a prolonged photoluminescence lifetime, which is attributed to the diffusion of charge carriers through interparticle states formed among nanocrystals. Interestingly, the photoluminescence lifetime decreases and the emission intensity increases for the clusters, which is with the increase in the intensity of excitation light. By doping the nanocrystal clusters with C60, we successfully harvested the photogenerated charge carriers. Nonetheless, at high intensities of excitation, the rate of radiative recombination becomes comparable to that of the electron transfer to C60. Thus, the optimum rate of electron transfer to C60 is accomplished by minimally exciting the self-assembled nanocrystals.
