Abstract
Two-dimensional (2D) perovskites are the new engine to drive the legacy of the perovskite materials. This has diversified the relevance of the perovskite materials and has pushed the utility boundary of the materials from the limited applicability of 3-dimensional perovskites. 2D perovskites are being used independently and also in tandem with three-dimensional perovskites, which has broadened its scope of acceptance in terms of performance and stability. 2D perovskites provide adequate band alignment, remarkable carrier mobility, low exciton binding energies, and magnificent absorption coefficients, making it an exciting material to explore. This chapter has discussed the structural properties of different types of 2D perovskites. Further, various routes of synthesizing of the 2D perovskites have also been discussed. In the later part, organic spacer cations, mainly monoammonium and diammonium cations, have been explored, which play an important role in defining properties and application of the 2D perovskites. Lastly, diverse applications of the 2D perovskites in light-emitting diodes (LEDs), lasers, photodetectors, photovoltaics, and photocatalysis have also been discussed. The chapter draws insight from prevailing developments in the field of 2D perovskites to contribute to future perspectives on develo** 2D perovskites as a new class of emerging materials.
