Polyvinylpyrrolidone-assisted aqueous synthesis of monodisperse CH3NH3PbBr3 perovskite nanocrystals
Metal halide perovskites are difficult to be prepared entirely in water due to their ionic nature. Aqueous synthesis routes of methylammonium lead bromide (CH3NH3PbBr3) perovskite were reported previously, but th...
