High‐Stability Hybrid Antimony Halides for Thermometry in Power System Component or Circuit Monitoring

Abstract Organic–inorganic metal halides (OIMHs) possess low preparation costs and high photoluminescence quantum yield. Within a specific range, the temperature‐dependent nature of OIMHs' luminescent lifetime facilitates temperature sensing and thermal imaging functionalities. In this study, a non‐toxic (C 10 H 22 N) 6 SbBr 9 ·H 2 O ([C 10 H 22 N] + is 4‐(tert‐buty)cyclohexanamine cation) with a 0D structure crystallized in the Pbcn space group is obtained. Under blue light excitation at room temperature, it demonstrates intense broad emission centered at 635 nm. Further investigation into the correlation between temperature and photoluminescence lifetime has unveiled exceptional temperature sensing precision. The relative sensitivities within the range of power system temperature alert 30–70 °C lie between 2.5% and 4.5% K −1 . This matches the typical high‐temperature warning threshold for power systems. Moreover, after immersion in water and alcohol, the compound maintains remarkable stability, with multiple heating/cooling cycles confirming its reliability under test temperatures. Additionally, a composite thin‐film device composed of (C 10 H 22 N) 6 SbBr 9 ·H 2 O, showcasing its potential as a stable and durable thermal imaging temperature sensing device is fabricated.
