. We demonstrate that the exciton dissociation activity in 2D perovskites is significantly promoted because of the formation of exciton-polarons with considerably reduced exciton binding energy (down to a few tens of millielectronvolts) by the polaronic screening effect. This ultrafast and high-yield exciton dissociation limits the photoluminescence of 2D perovskites but on the other hand well explains their exceptional performance in photovoltaic devices. The finding should represent a common exciton property in the 2D hybrid perovskite family and provide a guideline for their rational applications in light emitting and photovoltaics.
