General description

Lead(II) bromide is a white crystalline solid that is sparingly soluble in water. It possesses excellent optical properties, including a suitable bandgap for efficient light absorption in the visible spectrum, making it an ideal candidate for photovoltaic applications.

Application

Lead(II) bromide can be used:
  • To prepare an electrolyte for a high performance all-solid-state bromide-ion battery.
  • As a precursor to prepare organic–inorganic hybrid perovskite materials for solar cells and light emitting devices (LEDs).
  • As a starting material to prepare photocatalytic CsPbBr3@SiO2 composites with good water stability.
