General description
Copper(I) bromide is a faint green inorganic diamagnetic solid that has a polymeric structure like zinc sulfide. It is insoluble in water and widely used in the field of catalysis, nanomaterial synthesis, and solar cells.
Application
Copper(I) bromide can be used:
- As a solution-processable hole transport layer (HTL) for organic solar cells (OSCs). CuBr enhances the power conversion efficiency of solar cells.
- As a precursor to synthesize photoluminescent metal organic frameworks(MOFs).
- To synthesize highly emissive three-coordinate copper(I) complexes as a dopant in OLEDs with maximum external quantum efficiency of 21.3%.
- As a catalyst with ligands for atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP) reaction of tertiary alkyl halides in 14 different solvents to determine the rate constant.
- To synthesize macrocyclic polymer via intramolecular radical trap-assisted atom transfer radical coupling.

Sustained pulmonary delivery of tobramycin from microparticles composed of drug/polymer nanocomplexes offers several advantages against traditional delivery methods. Namely, in patients with cystic fibrosis, microparticle delivery can protect the tobramycin being delivered from strong mucoadhesive interactions, thus avoiding effects on
