Recent reports indicated that the mechanical and electronic properties of lead-halide perovskites are strongly affected by the lattice vibrations. Herein we report far-infrared spectroscopy measurements of CH3NH3Pb(I/Br/Cl)3 thin films and single crystals at room temperature (RT) and a detailed quantitative analysis of the spectra. We find strong broadening and anharmonicity of the lattice vibrations for all three halide perovskites, which indicates dynamic disorder
of the lead-halide cage at RT. We determine the frequencies of the transversal and longitudinal optical phonons, and
use them to calculate, via appropriate models, the static dielectric constants, polaron masses, electron-phonon coupling constants,
and upper limits for the phonon-scattering limited charge carrier mobilities. Within the limitations of the model used, we can place an upper limit of 200 cm2V−1s−1 for the RT charge carrier mobility in MAPbI3 single crystals.
