Abstract
As one of the emerging two-dimensional lead halide materials,lead iodide(PbI2)nanosheets have proven to possess strong application potential in the fields of high-energy radiation detection and highly efficient perovskite solar cells.However,the underlying photophysical properties such as hot-exciton-related carrier dynamics remain unclear for PbI2 nanosheets.Here,we report the exciton dynamics of a single PbI2 nanoflake prepared by an aqueous solution method.Through a three-dimensional(3D)diffusion model,we obtain the exciton annihilation radius and diffusion coefficient of a single PbI2 nanoflake under non-resonant and resonant excitation conditions of band-edge exciton state.As initial exciton densities increase,we find the carrier recombination mechanism for a single PbI2 nanoflake gradually changes from exciton-exciton annihilation to free-carrier recombination.Finally,we reveal the room-temperature circular polarization of a single PbI2 nanoflake is due to free-carrier recombination with a band-edge exciton dissociation time of~120 fs under the resonant excitation condition.
