Abstract:Zero-dimensional (0D) hybrid organic−inorganic bismuth halides have attracted immense scientific interest as promising candidates for lead-free materials. Here, by using a typical solvothermal method, two mixed-cation-phase 0D hybrid bismuth chlorides of [HPDA][H 2 PDA]BiCl 6 (1) and [Hbzim][H 2 PA]BiCl 6 (2) (PDA = bis(4-pyridyl)amine, bzim = benzimidazole, PA = 2-picolylamine) have been assembled based on a series of organic amine guests. Both compounds exhibit interesting photoluminescence phenomena, in whi… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
