Low-dimensional halide perovskites have recently attracted intense interest as alternatives to the three-dimensional (3D) perovskites because of their greater tunability and higher environmental stability. Herein, we present the new homologous 2D series (NH 3 C m H 2 m NH 3 )(CH 3 NH 3 ) n-1 Pb n I 3 n+1 ( m = 4-9; n = 1-4), where m represents the carbon-chain number and n equals layer-thickness number. Multilayer ( n &gt; 1) 2D perovskites incorporating diammonium cations were successfully synthesized by the solid-state grinding method for m = 4 and 6 and by the solution method for m = 7-9. Structural characterization by single-crystal X-ray diffraction for the m = 8 and m = 9 series ( n = 1-4) reveals that these compounds adopt the Cc space group for even n members and Pc for odd n members. The optical bandgaps are 2.15 eV for two-layer ( n = 2), 2.01 eV for three-layer ( n = 3), and 1.90 eV for four-layer ( n = 4). The materials exhibit excellent solution processability, and casting thin-films of the n = 3 members was successfully accomplished. The films show a clear tendency for the higher- m members to have preferred orientation on the glass substrate, with m = 8 exhibiting almost perfect vertical layer orientation and m = 9 displaying both vertical and parallel layer orientation, as confirmed by grazing-incidence wide-angle X-ray scattering (GIWAXS) measurements. The vertical layer orientation for the (NH 3 C 8 H 16 NH 3 )(CH 3 NH 3 ) 2 Pb 3 I 10 member results in the best thermal, light, and air stability within this series, thus showing excellent potential for solar cell applications.
