Lead halide perovskites have emerged as platforms for exciton-polaritonic studies at room temperature, thanks to their excellent photoluminescence efficiency and synthetic versatility. In this work, we find proof of strong exciton-photon coupling in cavities formed by the layered crystals themselves, a phenomenon known as the self-hybridization effect. We use multilayers of high-quality Ruddlesden-Popper perovskites in their 2D crystalline form, benefiting from their quantum-well excitonic resonances and the strong Fabry-Pérot cavity modes resulting from the total internal reflection at their smooth surfaces.
