Exciton-Exciton coupling in hybrid persovskites conjugated to GaN Semiconductors system has been studied. Excitons are strongly coupled in (C6H5C2H4NH3)2PbI4[bis(phenethyl-ammonium)tetraiodoplumbatel] (PEPI) is a hybrid inorganic-organic layered, with a perovskite structure quantum well (QW). The inorganic PbI4 monolayer is sandwiched between organic layers. The interaction between electron and hole forming the bound exciton is significantly stronger due to dielectric confinement. The lowest exciton binding energy is 220 meV, which is 20 times in comparison to GaAs. Gallium nitride (GaN) semiconductor has defect bound excitons with absorption band, which overlaps with the emission spectra of the PEPI system. This facilitates resonant energy transfer (RET) from the GaN defect bound exciton states to the excitons confined in the PEPI layer. We investigated the interaction by photoluminescence (PL) and found that 1s exciton in the PEPI layer strongly couples with the GaN defect level exciton, which is pronounced at lower temperature (< ∼ 100 K).
