Enhancing growth of high-quality two-dimensional CsPbBr3 flakes on sapphire substrate by direct chemical vapor deposition method

Two-dimensional (2D) cesium lead halide (CsPbBr3) nanoflakes have attracted significant attention due to their exceptional optoelectronic properties. Herein, the direct chemical vapor deposition (CVD) method was employed to synthesize high-quality single-crystalline 2D CsPbBr3 flakes on a sapphire substrate using PbBr2 and CsBr precursors. The study offers a comprehensive analysis of the reaction mechanisms involved, including precursor vaporization, transport, decomposition, and subsequent reactions. These factors play a crucial role in modifying the growth process and achieving the desired properties of CsPbBr3 flakes on the sapphire substrate. Addition-ally, a detailed investigation was conducted into the position-dependent and power-dependent photo-luminescence (PL) properties of CsPbBr3 flakes on sapphire substrates. The results of this study contribute to the expanding knowledge base regarding the growth of 2D perovskite materials. Moreover, they open up avenues for future research and development in the field of advanced optoelectronics.
