DN-P42 (Phenylethylammonium acetate, PEAAc) is a typical surface regulator to perovskites in perovskite based optoelectronic devices. With delicately manipulated cation and anion, PEA+ and Ac- have demonstrated strong chemical binding to both acceptor and donor defects of surface-terminating ends on perovskite films, thereby, contributing to an improved device performance and extended durability under operational conditions.

Phenylethylammonium bromide

Description:

Phenethylammonium bromide is a commonly used precursor in perovskite-based optoelectronic devices. Incorporation the PEABr compound in formamidinium lead bromide perovskite films improves the crystal orientation of quasi-2D perovskite layers, resulting in an excellently performing non-volatile flash photomemory device (Chao et al., 2022).

Alternative names:

Phenethylammonium bromide

PEABr

Chemical composition:

C₈H₁₂NBr

Typical properties:

M_W = 202.10 g/mol
