Layered halide perovskites are a class of semiconductors easily produced via chemical approaches and showing unique optical and electronic properties. These materials have a natural quantum-well electronic structure, that is, the band-gap of the…
We present herein the synthesis and the photophysics of 2,2’-bipyridine-3,3’-diol-5,5’-dicarboxylic acid ethyl ester (BP(OH)$_2$DCEt$_2$), an excited state intramolecular proton tranfer (ESIPT)-based fluorophore featuring two identical…
