Solid state transformation of the crystalline monohydrate (CH3NH3)PbI3(H2O) to the (CH3NH3)PbI3 perovskite

Abstract

Crystals of (CH3NH3·H2O)PbI3 spontaneously transform to the black (CH3NH3)PbI3 perovskite as a porous microcrystalline solid. The dihydrate (CH3NH3)4PbI6·2H2O) requires more forcing conditions to produce (CH3NH3)PbI3.
