Abstract:
Two-dimensional (2D) organic-inorganic hybrid perovskites hold great promise for optoelectronics, yet their practical performance is severely limited by photoluminescence (PL) thermal quenching from strong electron-phonon coupling in soft lattices. Here, we report a confined magnetic bipolaron strategy to achieve efficient, thermally stable PL in Mn2+-doped 2D benzimidazolium lead chloride perovskite. Via synergy of directional coordination, interlayer confinement, and hydrogen bonding, we form ferromagnetically coupled Mn-Cl-Mn pairs as confined magnetic bipolaron emission centers, moderating electron-phonon coupling and suppressing nonradiative recombination. The optimized material shows 623 nm orange-red emission with 96.9% room-temperature PLQY, 99.6% color purity, and 84% peak intensity retention at 400 K. This work opens a new route to stabilize photoexcited states for high-performance perovskite emitters.

Colors and Magnetism
When atoms or molecules absorb light at the proper frequency, their electrons are excited to higher-energy orbitals. For many main group atoms and molecules, the absorbed photons are in the ultraviolet range of the electromagnetic spectrum, which cannot be detected by the human eye. For coordination compounds, the energy difference between the d orbitals often allows photons in the visible range to be absorbed and emitted, which is seen as colors by the human eye.

Diamagnetism
Diamagnetism was discovered by Anton Brugmans in 1778 when he observed that bismuth gets repelled by magnetic fields, thus theorizing that diamagnets get repelled by magnets.
