Abstract
The effect of silica (SiO2) addition on optical properties of organometal halide perovskite PMMA composite film was studied. The organometal halide perovskite, MAPbBr3, was synthesized using ligand assisted re-precipitation (LARP) method, and then was compose to PMMA and SiO2 directly to make composite films. The absorbances, transmittances, and photoluminescence (PL) spectrum of the samples were characterized using UV Vis and PL spectroscopy. The result shows that both samples showed a semi-transparent film with 80 % transmittance and multiple excitonic peaks on absorption spectra with different intensity. This reveals a mixture of perovskite nanostructures with different morphologies and sizes. The addition of SiO2 in the composite leads strong exciton absorption at short wavelength resulting in a blueshift in the PL spectra.
