【 摘 要 】

Organic-inorganic halide perovskites have been intensively reinvestigated due to their applications, yet the optoelectronic function of the organic cation remains unclear. Through organic-selective resonant Auger electron spectroscopy measurements on well-defined single-crystal surfaces, we find evidence for electronic coupling in the unoccupied states between the organic and inorganic sublattices of the prototypical hybrid perovskite, which is contrary to the notion based on previous studies that the organic cation is electronically inert. The coupling is relevant for electron dynamics in the material and for understanding optoelectronic functionality.
