Abstract
Organic-inorganic hybrid perovskites are promising for optoelectronic applications due to their tunable band gaps and exceptional photophysical properties. We synthesized three perovskite derivatives, (C6H16N)2ZnBr4 (1), (C6H16N)2MnBr4 (2), and (C6H16N)2MnCl4 (3), via solution evaporation. Single-crystal X-ray diffraction confirmed monoclinic structures (space group P21/n) with refined reliability factors (1: R1 = 0.0915, wR2 = 0.2424; 2: R1 = 0.0238, wR2 = 0.0582). Lattice parameters for 1 (a = 9.4029(2) Å, b = 18.1735(4) Å, c = 12.9582(3) Å) and 2 (a = 9.3503(10) Å, b = 18.2398(10) Å, c = 12.8888(10) Å) indicate structural consistency. Experimental band gaps (4.45 eV for 1, 1.6 eV for 2, 2.96 eV for 3) align with first-principles calculations (4.51, 2.74, 2.87 eV). Thermogravimetric analysis revealed thermal stability below 250 °C. Notably, 1 exhibits unusual blue emission (quantum yield: 0.12 %, lifetime: 5.97 ns), while Mn-doped 2 and 3 show green luminescence with enhanced efficiencies (quantum yields: 14.6 % and 47.7 %; lifetimes: 1.08 μs and 32.52 μs). First-principles calculations further identify antiferromagnetic ordering in 2 and 3 due to Mn-3d interactions. The high quantum yield (47.7 %) and prolonged lifetime (32.52 μs) of 3 demonstrate its potential as a luminescent material.
