Two-dimensional (2D) hybrid organic inorganic perovskite (HOIP) semiconductors have attracted widespread attention as a platform of next generation optoelectronic devices benefiting from their naturally occurring and tunable multiple quantum-well like (QW) structures, which enable a wide range of physical properties. Determining the intrinsic optical/electronic properties of 2D HOIPs is extremely important for further utility in photonic and optoelectronics devices. Here, we obtain the optical dielectric functions, complex refractive indices, and complex optical conductivities of both Ruddlesden-Popper (RP) and Dion-Jacobsen (DJ) phases of 2D HOIPs as a function of the perovskite QW thickness via spectroscopic ellipsometry over a broad energy range of 0.73 - 3.34 eV. We identify a series of feature peaks in the dielectric functions, and explain the evolution of ground state exciton peak with unit cell thickness and changing excitonic confinement. We observe extraordinary values of optical extinction and electric loss tangents at the primary excitonic resonances and provide their detailed comparison with other known excitonic materials. Our study is expected to lay foundation for understanding optical properties of pure phase 2D HOIPs, which will be helpful for the accurate modelling of their photonics and optoelectronic devices.
