General description

We are committed to bringing you Greener Alternative Products, which adhere to one or more of The 12 Principles of Greener Chemistry. This product has been enhanced for energy efficiency. Click here for more details.

Application

Methylammonium bromide (MABr) can be used as a precursor in the preparation of methylammonium lead bromide based perovskite material with good optical properties, which include green emission, and photoluminescence. This material can further be utilized in the fabrication of alternative energy devices such as light emitting diodes(LEDs), and perovskite solar cells (PSCs).
Methylammonium bromide (MABr) is commonly used as an additive in the fabrication of perovskite solar cells. It helps improve the crystal structure and stability of the perovskite film, resulting in enhanced photovoltaic performance. MABr finds use in the development of optoelectronic devices like light-emitting diodes (LEDs)and photodetectors. It helps engineer the optical and electrical properties of the materials, improving their performance in these devices.
The iodide and bromide based alkylated halides find applications as precursors for fabrication of perovskites for photovoltaic applications.
