Structural and Photophysical Properties of Methylammonium Lead Tribromide (MAPbBr3) Single Crystals

Abstract The structural and photophysical characteristics of MAPbBr3 single crystals prepared using the inverse temperature crystallization method are evaluated using temperature-dependent X-ray diffraction (XRD) and optical spectroscopy. Contrary to previous research reports on perovskite materials...
