Hole Transfer Dynamics in Thin Films of Mixed‐Dimensional Quasi‐2D Perovskites

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Charge transfer dynamics in quasi‐2D perovskite (PEA2MAn−1PbnI3n+1), grown with a distinct dimensionality gradient are investigated. Selective excitation of the n = 4 phase reveals efficient hole transfer to n = 2 and n = 3 within tens of picoseconds, while n = 1 acts as a hole‐blocking layer. These findings highlight the importance of minimizing n = 1
