Abstract
Low-dimensional perovskite (PVK) materials have attracted significant research interest, because of their quantum-confined effect, tunable band gap structures, and higher stability than that of three-dimensional (3D) PVKs. In semiconductor optoelectronic devices, high speed and small size are closely interlinked. The development of high-speed devices requires researchers to fully understand the properties of materials, especially the dynamic processes such as carrier recombination, separation, and transport, which often play a crucial role in the performance of devices. As an indispensable part of dynamic research, spin relaxation is also of great significance in studying the properties of materials and explore possible applications. Lead halide PVK materials have strong spin-orbit coupling (SOC), which provides a basis for information storage and processing by using spin degrees of freedom. Therefore, studying the carrier and spin dynamics of low-dimensional PVKs is an effective way to understand the internal properties of low-dimensional PVKs clearly. This paper summarizes the latest research progress on the ultrafast carrier and spin dynamics in low-dimensional PVKs, to comprehensively understand their carrier and spin behaviors and present an outlook for relevant studies in this area.
