| contents | The 2D/3D construction of hybrid perovskite interfaces is gaining increasing attention due to their enhanced stability towards degradation without compromising the corresponding solar cell efficiency. Much of it is due to the interfacial charge transfer and its consequences on the electronic and optical response of the composite system, which are instrumental in the context of stability and efficiency. In this work, we have considered a case study of an experimentally motivated 2D/3D interface constructed based on Ruddlesden-Popper phases of (A43)$_2$PbI$_4$ and (A43)$_2$MAPb$_2$I$_7$ hybrid perovskites to envisage the unique tuning of electronic and optical properties through the associated charge transfer. The corresponding tuning of the band gap is seen to be related to a unique charge transfer process between the 2D and 3D counterparts of the interface mediated from valence to conduction band edges of the composite. We have found that the optical absorption spectra can also be tuned by the construction of such a hetero-interface and the emergence of a unique two-peak step feature on the absorption edge, which is not present in either the 2D or 3D hybrid perovskites. Formation of the composite is found to increase the spectroscopic limited maximum efficiency for the use of these materials as solar cells from $\approx$ 24\% for individual components to $\approx$ 32\% for the composite hetero-structure. |
