Abstract

Abstract : Platelet crystals of a layered perovskite enormously swelled in a tetrabutylammonium hydroxide solution, producing unique columnar shaped crystals with a water content of >90 wt%. Abstract : Platelet crystals of a layered perovskite showed massive accordion-like swelling in a tetrabutylammonium hydroxide solution. The permeation of the solution induced the huge expansion of the interlayer spacing as well as the crystal thickness up to 50-fold, leading to a very high water content of >90 wt%.
