Abstract
Crafting rational heterojunctions with nanostructured materials is instrumental in fostering effective interfacial charge separation and transport for optoelectronics. Layered halide perovskites (LHPs) that form heterojunctions between organic spacer molecules and inorganic metal halide layers exhibit tunable photophysics owing to their customizable band alignment. However, controlling photogenerated carrier dynamics by strategically designing layered perovskite heterojunctions remains largely unexplored. We combine a data-driven approach with time-domain density functional theory (TD-DFT) and non-adiabatic molecular dynamics (NAMD) to screen and select electronically active spacer dications (A') that introduce a type-II heterojunction in the lead iodide-based Dion-Jacobson phase LHPs. The composition-structure-electronic property correlations reveal that the number of nitrogens in aromatic heterocycles is the key factor in designing electron-accepting spacers in these perovskites. The detailed atomistic simulations validate the design strategy further by modeling (A')PbI4 perovskites, which incorporate three different screened electroactive A' spacers. The computed excited charge carrier dynamics illustrate the phonon-mediated ultrafast interfacial electron transfer from the inorganic conduction band edge to the lower-lying unoccupied orbitals of spacers, exhibiting photoluminescence quenching in these (A')PbI4 perovskites. The spatially separated electrons and holes at the type-II heterojunction interface prolong the excited charge carrier lifetime, boosting the carrier transport and exciton dynamics. Our work illustrates a robust in silico approach for designing LHPs with exciting optoelectronic properties originating from their fine-tuned heterojunctions.

[PMID: 39223930 DOI: 10.1002/adma.202410255] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/16/2024] [Revised: 08/19/2024] [Indexed: 09/04/2024]
Abstract
Efficient and stable red perovskite light-emitting diodes (PeLEDs) demonstrate promising potential in high-definition displays and biomedical applications. Although significant progress has been made in device performance, meeting commercial demands remains a challenge in the aspects of long-term stability and high external quantum efficiency (EQE). Here, an in situ crystallization regulation strategy is developed for optimizing red perovskite films through ingenious vapor design. Mixed vapor containing dimethyl sulfoxide and carbon disulfide (CS2) is incorporated to conventional annealing, which contributes to thermodynamics dominated perovskite crystallization for well-aligned cascade phase arrangement. Additionally, the perovskite surface defect density is minimized by the CS2 molecule adsorption. Consequently, the target perovskite films exhibit smooth exciton energy transfer, reduced defect density, and blocked ion migration pathways. Leveraging these advantages, spectrally stable red PeLEDs are obtained featuring emission at 668, 656, and 648 nm, which yield record peak EQEs of 30.08%, 32.14%, and 29.04%, along with prolonged half-lifetimes of 47.7, 60.0, and 43.7 h at the initial luminances of 140, 250, and 270 cd m-2, respectively. This work provides a universal strategy for optimizing perovskite crystallization and represents a significant stride toward the commercialization of red PeLEDs.

Abstract
Metal halide perovskites (MHPs) are emerging gas-sensing materials and have attracted considerable attention in gas sensors due to their unique bandgap structure and tunable optoelectronic properties. The past decade has witnessed significant developments in the gas-sensing field; however, their intrinsic structural instability and ambiguous gas-sensing mechanisms hamper their practical applications. Herein, we summarize the recent advances in MHP-based gas sensors. The physicochemical properties of MHPs are discussed at first. The structure design, including dimension design and engineering design, is overviewed as well as their fabrication methods, and we put forward our insights into the gas-sensing mechanism of MHPs. It is believed that enhanced understanding of gas-sensing mechanisms of MHPs are helpful for their application as gas-sensing materials, and structure design can enhance their stability, sensing sensitivity, and selectivity to target gases as gas sensors. Subsequently, the latest developments in MHP-based gas sensors are summarized according to their different application scenarios. Finally, we conclude with the current status and challenges in this field and propose future perspectives.

Abstract
Perovskite materials, celebrated for their exceptional optoelectronic properties, have seen extensive application in the field of light-emitting diodes (LEDs), where research is as abundant as the proverbial "carloads of books." In this review, the research of perovskite materials is delved into from a dimensional perspective, with a focus on the exemplary performance of low-dimensional perovskite materials in LEDs. This discussion predominantly revolves around perovskite quantum wires and perovskite nanorods. Perovskite quantum wires are versatile in their growth, compatible with both solution-based and vapor-phase growth, and can be deposited over large areas-even on spherical substrates-to achieve commendable electroluminescence (EL). Perovskite nanorods, on the other hand, boast a suite of superior characteristics, such as polarization properties and tunability of the transition dipole moment, endowing them with the great potential to enhance light extraction efficiency. Furthermore, zero-dimensional (0D) perovskite materials like nanocrystals (NCs) are also the subject of widespread research and application. This review reflects on and synthesizes the unique qualities of the aforementioned materials while exploring their vital roles in the development of high-efficiency perovskite LEDs (PeLEDs).

Abstract
Metal halide perovskite semiconductors hold a strong promise for enabling thin-film laser diodes. Perovskites distinguish themselves from other non-epitaxial media primarily through their ability to maintain performance at high current densities, which is a critical requirement for achieving injection lasing. Coming in a wide range of varieties, numerous perovskites delivered low-threshold optical amplified spontaneous emission and optically pumped lasing when combined with a suitable optical cavity. A progression toward electrically pumped lasing requires the development of efficient light-emitting structures with reduced optical losses and high radiative efficiency at lasing-level current densities. This involves a set of important trade-offs in terms of material choice, stack and waveguide design, as well as resonator integration. In this Perspective, the key milestones are highlighted that have been achieved in the study of passive optical waveguides and light-emitting diodes, and these learnings are translated toward more complex laser diode architectures. Finally, a novel resonator integration route is proposed that is capable of relaxing optical and electrical design constraints.

Abstract
Two-dimensional inorganic-organic hybrid perovskites are in the limelight due to their potential applications in photonics and optoelectronics. They are environmentally stable, and their various chemical compositions offer a wide range of bandgap energies. Alternatively, crystal deformation enables in situ control over their optical properties. Here, we investigate (C6H9C2H4NH3)2PbI4, a hybrid perovskite whose organic linkers are 2-(1-cyclohexenyl)ethylammonium. Pressure-dependent optical absorption and emission spectroscopy reveal a hysteretic piezochromism that was not reported for other lead iodide-based 2D perovskites. We combine our optical studies with high-pressure X-ray diffraction experiments and first-principles calculations to demonstrate that the deformation of the inorganic lead iodide layers is the main reason for the observed changes in the optical bandgap.

Abstract
2D metal halide perovskites (MHPs), mainly the studied Ruddlesden-Popper (RP) and Dion-Jacobson (DJ) phases, have gained enormous popularity as optoelectronic materials owing to their self-assembled multiple quantum well structures, tunable semiconducting properties, and improved structural stability compared to their bulk 3D counterparts. The performance of polycrystalline thin film devices is limited due to the formation of defects and trap states. However, as studied so far, single crystal-based devices can provide a better platform to improve device performance and investigate their fundamental properties more reliably. This Review provides the first comprehensive report on the emerging field of RP and DJ perovskite single crystals and their use in visible light photodetectors of varied device configurations. This Review structurally summarizes the 2D MHP single crystal growth methods and the parameters that control the crystal growth process. In addition, the characterization techniques used to investigate their crystal properties are discussed. The review further provides detailed insights into the working mechanisms as well as the operational performance of 2D MHP single crystal photodetector devices. In the end, to outline the present status and future directions, this Review provides a forward-looking perspective concerning the technical challenges and bottlenecks associated with the developing field of RP and DJ perovskite single crystals. Therefore, this timely review will provide a detailed overview of the fast-growing field of 2D MHP single crystal-based photodetectors as well as ignite new concepts for a wide range of applications including solar cells, photocatalysts, solar H2 production, neuromorphic bioelectronics, memory devices, etc.

Abstract
Quasi-two-dimensional (quasi-2D) perovskites hold significant potential for diverse design strategies due to their tunable structures, exceptional optical properties, and environmental stability. Due to the complexity of the structure and carrier dynamics, characterization methods such as photoluminescence and absorption spectroscopy can observe but cannot precisely distinguish or identify the phase distribution within quasi-2D perovskite films or correlate phases with carrier dynamics. In this study, we used pressure to modulate the intralayer and interlayer structures of (PEA)2Csn-1PbnBr3n+1 quasi-2D perovskite films, investigating charge carrier dynamics. Steady-state spectroscopy revealed phase transitions at 1.62, 3, and 8 GPa, with free excitons transforming into self-trapped excitons after 8 GPa. Transient absorption spectroscopy elucidated the structural evolution, energy transfer, and pressure-induced transition mechanisms. The results demonstrate that combining pressure and spectroscopy enables the precise identification of phase distribution and pressure response ranges and reveals photophysical mechanisms, providing new insights for optimizing optoelectronic materials.

Abstract
2D organic-inorganic hybrid perovskites (OIHPs) have shown great promise in direct X-ray detection. The development of high-performance passive X-ray detectors in 2D OIHPs calls for an increase in material density while maintaining structural polarity, which is becoming quite challenging. Here, a high-density, polar 2D alternating-cation-intercalated (ACI) perovskite, (4-AP)Cs2Pb2I8 (B, 4-AP = 4-amidinopyridinium), capable of addressing this problem is successfully constructed by introducing heavy Cs+ into the interlayer space of an aromatic Dion-Jacobson (DJ) perovskite (4-AP)PbI4 (A). Through such a DJ-to-ACI design, the newly developed 2D OIHP B not only significantly increases its density to 4.23 g cm-3 (even higher than that of 3D MAPbI3) but also crystallizes in a polar space group (Ama2), which further leads to enhanced X-ray attenuation and an obvious polar photovoltage (1.1 V) under X-ray irradiation. As a result, X-ray detectors fabricated by high-quality single crystals of B exhibit excellent and stable detection performance under self-powered mode with a high sensitivity of 107 μC Gy-1 cm-2 and a low detection limit of 289 nGy s-1. This work provides implications for the future exploration and regulation of novel ACI OIHPs for high-performance photoelectronic devices.

Abstract
Despite a few recent reports on Rashba effects in two-dimensional (2D) Ruddlesden-Popper (RP) hybrid perovskites, the precise role of organic spacer cations in influencing Rashba band splitting remains unclear. Here, using a combination of temperature-dependent two-photon photoluminescence (2PPL) and time-resolved photoluminescence spectroscopy, alongside density functional theory (DFT) calculations, we contribute to significant insights into the Rashba band splitting found for 2D RP hybrid perovskites. The results demonstrate that the polarity of the organic spacer cation is crucial in inducing structural distortions that lead to Rashba-type band splitting. Our investigations show that the intricate details of the Rashba band splitting occur for organic cations with low polarity but not for more polar ones. Furthermore, we have observed stronger exciton-phonon interactions due to the Rashba-type band splitting effect. These findings clarify the importance of selecting appropriate organic spacer cations to manipulate the electronic properties of 2D perovskites.

Abstract
Quasi-two-dimensional (quasi-2D) perovskites exhibit excellent performance in light-emitting diodes (LEDs). However, the quality of perovskite films prepared via the solution method is significantly impacted by the enormous number of defects that unavoidably form at the grain boundaries and interfaces during the precursor to the crystal formation process. Here, we propose a strategy to assist perovskite crystallization and defect passivation at the buried interface through interfacial modification. The organic ammonium salt, ethylamine chloride (EACl), is added to the hole transport material and modifies the buried interface of the perovskite film. EACl introduces the nucleation sites for perovskite precursors, and promotes the crystallization process of the perovskite grains, contributing to the formation of high-quality perovskite films. At the same time, the presence of Lewis base (-NH2) groups in EACl and their lone electron pairs effectively inactivate unlocated Pb2+ ions at the buried interface, thereby reducing non-radiative recombination. In addition, chloride ions help to mitigate defects and to improve the morphology of perovskite films. Devices with this modification show a higher performance than control devices on all metrics. This work proposes a facile but efficient way for improving quasi-2D pure blue perovskite crystallization and growth.

Abstract
Ruddlesden-Popper (RP) perovskites promise next-generation gain media for laser devices. However, most RP perovskite lasers are still suffering from inferior performance characteristics, such as inadequate energy transfer, unstable emission, and short lifetime. To address the above problems, high crystalline quality, compact, and smooth PEA2FA2Pb3Br10 films with uniform phase distribution were successfully prepared by ionic liquid (IL) methylammonium acetate (MAAc) in an air environment. Compared with the PEA2FA2Pb3Br10 film prepared by the traditional solvent dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO), an enhanced amplified spontaneous emission (ASE) with a lower threshold of 58 µJ·cm-2 from the MAAc-treated film was obtained under nanosecond laser excitation. The transient absorption (TA) spectroscopy revealed that a uniform phase distribution and more efficient energy transfer processes were achieved in the PEA2FA2Pb3Br10-MAAc film, leading to an enhanced band-to-band spontaneous emission process. Furthermore, the films exhibited better stability, showing no signs of degradation under the 120 min pulsed laser pumping in air and stability of ASE spectra at even 95% humidity conditions. This study provides an important foundation for achieving high-performance optically pumped lasers based on the unique RP perovskites.

Abstract
Colloidal perovskite nanoplatelets (NPLs) have shown promise in tackling blue light-emitting diode challenges based on their tunable band gap and high photoluminescence efficiencies. However, high quality and large area dense NPL films have been proven to be very hard to prepare because of their chemical and physical fragility during the liquid phase deposition. Herein, we report a perovskite-polymer composite film deposition strategy with fine morphology engineering obtained using the blade coating method. The effects of the polymer type, solution concentration, compounding ratio and film thickness on the film quality are systematically investigated. We found that a relatively high-concentration suspension with an optimized NPL to polymer ratio of 1 : 2 is crucial for the suppression of phase separation and arriving at a uniform film. Finally, sky-blue NPL-based perovskite light-emitting diodes were fabricated by blade coating showing an EQE of 0.12% on a device area of 16 mm2.

Abstract
To achieve pure-blue emission (460-470 nm), we manipulate the crystallization process of the quasi-2D perovskite, (PBA)2Csn-1PbnBr3n+1, prepared by a solution process. The strategy involves controlling the distribution of "n" phases with different bandgaps, solely utilizing changes in the precursor's supersaturation to ensure that the desired emission aligns with the smallest bandgap. Adjustments in photoluminescence (PL) wavelength are made by changing the solute concentration and solvent polarity, as these factors heavily influence the diffusion of cations, a crucial determinant for the value of "n". Subsequently, we enhance the PL quantum yield from 31 to 51% at 461 nm using trioctylphosphine oxide (TOPO) as an additive of antisolvent, which passivates halide vacancy and promotes orderly crystal growth, leading to faster carrier transfer between phases. With these strategies, we successfully demonstrate pure-blue LEDs with a turn-on voltage of 3.3 V and an external quantum efficiency of 5.5% at an emission peak of 470 nm with a full-width at half-maximum of 31 nm.

Abstract
In the quest for durable photovoltaic devices, 2D halide perovskites have emerged as a focus of extensive research. However, the reduced dimension in structure is accompanied by inferior optical-electrical properties, such as widened band gap, enhanced exciton binding energy, and obstructed charge transport. As a result, the efficiency of 2D perovskite solar cells (PSCs) lags significantly behind their 3D counterparts. To overcome these constraints, extensive investigations into materials and processing techniques are pursued rigorously to augment the efficiency of 2D PSCs. Herein, The cutting-edge delve into developments in 2D PSCs, with a focus on chemical and material engineering, as well as their structure and photovoltaic properties. The review starts with an introduction of the crystal structure, followed by the key evaluation criteria of 2D PSCs. Then, the strategies around solution chemical engineering, processing technique, and interface optimization, to simultaneously boost efficiency and stability are systematically discussed. Finally, the challenges and perspectives associated with 2D perovskites to provide insights into potential improvements in photovoltaic performance will be outlined.

Abstract
Quasi-2D perovskites based blue light-emitting diodes (LEDs) suffer from its poor electroluminescence performance, mainly caused by the nonradiative recombination in in defect-rich low-n phases and the unbalanced hole-electron injection in the device. Here, we developed a highly efficient quasi-2D perovskite based sky-blue LEDs behaving recorded external quantum efficiency (EQE) of 21.07% by employing carbon dots (CDs) as additives in the hole transport layer (HTL). We ascribe the high EQE to the effective engineering of CDs: (1) The CDs at the interface of HTLs can suppress the formation of low-efficient n = 1 phase, resulting a high luminescence quantum yield and energy transfer efficiency of the mixed n-phase quasi-2D perovskites. (2) The CDs additives can reduce the conductivity of HTL, partially blocking the hole injection, and thus making more balanced hole-electron injection. The CDs-treated devices have excellent Spectral stability and enhanced operational stability and could be a new alternative additive in the perovskite optoelectronic devices.

Abstract
Blue perovskite light-emitting diodes (PeLEDs) are crucial avenues for achieving full-color displays and lighting based on perovskite materials. However, the relatively low external quantum efficiency (EQE) has hindered their progression towards commercial applications. Quasi-two-dimensional (quasi-2D) perovskites stand out as promising candidates for blue PeLEDs, with optimized control over low-dimensional phases contributing to enhanced radiative properties of excitons. Herein, the impact of organic molecular dopants on the crystallization of various n-phase structures in quasi-2D perovskite films. The results reveal that the highly reactive bis(4-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl)phosphine oxide (BTF-PPO) molecule could effectively restrain the formation of organic spacer cation-ordered layered perovskite phases through chemical reactions, simultaneously passivate those uncoordinated Pb2+ defects. Consequently, the prepared PeLEDs exhibited a maximum EQE of 16.6 % (@ 490 nm). The finding provides a new route to design dopant molecules for phase modulation in quasi-2D PeLEDs.

Since their emergence in 2014, graphitic carbon nitride quantum dots (g-C3N4 QDs) have attracted much interest from the scientific community due to their distinctive physicochemical features, including structural, morphological, electrochemical, and optoelectronic properties. Owing to their desirable characteristics, such as non-zero band gap, ability to be chemically functionalized or doped, possessing tunable properties, outstanding dispersibility in different media, and biocompatibility, g-C3N4 QDs have shown promise for photocatalysis, energy devices, sensing, bioimaging, solar cells, optoelectronics, among other applications. As these fields are rapidly evolving, it is very strenuous to pinpoint the emerging challenges of the g-C3N4 QDs development and application during the last decade, mainly due to the lack of critical reviews of the innovations in the g-C3N4 QDs synthesis pathways and domains of application. Herein, an extensive survey is conducted on the g-C3N4 QDs synthesis, characterization, and applications. Scenarios for the future development of g-C3N4 QDs and their potential applications are highlighted and discussed in detail. The provided critical section suggests a myriad of opportunities for g-C3N4 QDs, especially for their synthesis and functionalization, where a combination of eco-friendly/single step synthesis and chemical modification may be used to prepare g-C3N4 QDs with, for example, enhanced photoluminescence and production yields.

Abstract
Even though lead halide perovskite has been demonstrated as a promising optoelectronic material for next-generation display applications, achieving high-efficiency and stable pure-red (620~635 nm) emission to cover the full visible wavelength is still challenging. Here, we report perovskite light-emitting diodes emitting pure-red light at 628 nm achieving high external quantum efficiencies of 26.04%. The performance is attributed to successful synthesizing strongly confined CsPbI3 quantum dots with good stability. The strong binding 2-naphthalene sulfonic acid ligands are introduced after nucleation to suppress Ostwald ripening, meanwhile, ammonium hexafluorophosphate exchanges long chain ligands and avoids regrowth by strong binding during the purification process. Both ligands enhance the charge transport ability of CsPbI3 quantum dots. The state-of-the-art synthesis of pure red CsPbI3 quantum dots achieves 94% high quantum efficiency, which can maintain over 80% after 50 days, providing a method for synthesizing stable strong confined perovskite quantum dots.

Abstract
Quasi-2D perovskites exhibit impressive optoelectronic properties and hold significant promise for future light-emitting devices. However, the efficiency of perovskite light-emitting diodes (PeLEDs) is seriously limited by defect-induced nonradiative recombination and imbalanced charge injection. Here, the defect states are passivated and charge injection balance is effectively improved by introducing the additive cyclohexanemethylammonium (CHMA) to bromide-based Dion-Jacobson (D-J) structure quasi-2D perovskite emission layer. CHMA participates in the crystallization of perovskite, leading to high quality film composed of compact and well-contacted grains with enhanced hole transportation and less defects. As a result, the corresponding PeLEDs exhibit stable pure blue emission at 466 nm with a maximum external quantum efficiency (EQE) of 9.22%. According to current knowledge, this represents the highest EQE reported for pure-blue PeLEDs based on quasi-2D bromide perovskite thin films. These findings underscore the potential of quasi-2D perovskites for advanced light-emitting devices and pave the way for further advancements in PeLEDs.

Abstract
The surface morphology of perovskite films significantly influences the performance of perovskite light-emitting diodes (PeLEDs). However, the thin perovskite thickness (~10 nm) results in low surface coverage on the substrate, limiting the improvement of photoelectric performance. Here, we propose a molecular additive strategy that employs pentafluorophenyl diphenylphosphinate (FDPP) molecules as additives. P=O and Pentafluorophenyl (5F) on FDPP can coordinate with Pb2+ to slow the crystallization process of perovskite and enhance surface coverage. Moreover, FDPP reduces the defect density of perovskite and enhances the crystalline quality. The maximum brightness, power efficiency (PE), and external quantum efficiency (EQE) of the optimal device reached 24,230 cd m-2, 82.73 lm W-1, and 21.06%, respectively. The device maintains an EQE of 19.79% at 1000 cd m-2 and the stability is further enhanced. This study further extends the applicability of P=O-based additives.

Effective Small Organic Molecule as a Defect Passivator for Highly Efficient Quasi-2D Perovskite Light-Emitting Diodes. SMALL (WEINHEIM AN DER BERGSTRASSE, GERMANY) 2024; 20:e2308847.

Abstract
The use of a small organic molecular passivator is proven to be a successful strategy for producing higher-performing quasi-2D perovskite light-emitting diodes (PeLEDs). The small organic molecule can passivate defects on the grain surround and surface of perovskite crystal structures, preventing nonradiative recombination and charge trapping. In this study, a new small organic additive called 2, 8-dibromodibenzofuran (diBDF) is reported and examines its effectiveness as a passivating agent in high-performance green quasi-2D PeLEDs. The oxygen atom in diBDF, acting as a Lewis base, forms coordination bonds with uncoordinated Pb2+, so enhancing the performance of the device. In addition, the inclusion of diBDF in the quasi-2D perovskite results in a decrease in the abundance of low-n phases, hence facilitating efficient carrier mobility. Consequently, PeLED devices with high efficiency are successfully produced, exhibiting an external quantum efficiency of 19.9% at the emission wavelength of 517 nm and a peak current efficiency of 65.0 cd A-1.

Abstract
Deep-blue perovskite light-emitting diodes (PeLEDs) based on quasi-two-dimensional (quasi-2D) systems exist heightened sensitivity to the domain distribution. The top-down crystallization mode will lead to a vertical gradient distribution of quantum well (QW) structure, which is unfavorable for deep-blue emission. Herein, a thermal gradient annealing treatment is proposed to address the polydispersity issue of vertical QWs in quasi-2D perovskites. The formation of large-n domains at the upper interface of the perovskite film can be effectively inhibited by introducing a low-temperature source in the annealing process. Combined with the utilization of NaBr to inhibit the undesirable n=1 domain, a vertically concentrated QW structure is ultimately attained. As a result, the fabricated device delivers a narrow and stable deep-blue emission at 458 nm with an impressive external quantum efficiency (EQE) of 5.82 %. Green and sky-blue PeLEDs with remarkable EQE of 21.83 % and 17.51 % are also successfully achieved, respectively, by using the same strategy. The findings provide a universal strategy across the entire quasi-2D perovskites, paving the way for future practical application of PeLEDs.

Abstract
Introducing molecular chirality into perovskite crystal structures has enabled the control of carrier spin states, giving rise to circularly polarized luminescence (CPL) in thin films and circularly polarized electroluminescence (CPEL) in LEDs. Spin-LEDs can be fabricated either through a spin-filtering layer enabled by chiral-induced spin selectivity or a chiral emissive layer. The former requires a high degree of spin polarization and a compatible spinterface for efficient spin injection, which might not be easily integrated into LEDs. Alternatively, a chiral emissive layer can also generate circularly polarized electroluminescence, but the efficiency remains low and the fundamental mechanism is elusive. In this work, we report an efficient green LED based on quasi-two-dimensional (quasi-2D) chiral perovskites as the emitting layer (EML), where CPEL is directly produced without separate carrier spin injection. The optimized chiral perovskite thin films exhibited strong CPL at 535 nm with a photoluminescence quantum yield (PLQY) of 91% and a photoluminescence dissymmetry factor (glum) of 8.6 × 10-2. Efficient green spin-LEDs were successfully demonstrated, with a large EL dissymmetry factor (gEL) of 7.8 × 10-2 and a maximum external quantum efficiency (EQE) of 13.5% at room temperature. Ultrafast transient absorption (TA) spectroscopic study shows that the CPEL is generated from a rapid energy transfer accompanied by spin transfer from 2D to 3D perovskites. Our study not only demonstrates a reliable approach to achieve high performance spin-LEDs but also reveals the fundamental mechanism of CPEL with an emissive layer of chiral perovskites.

Abstract
Anisotropic nanocrystals such as nanorods (NRs) display unique linearly polarized emission, which is expected to break the external quantum efficiency (EQE) limit of quantum dot-based light-emitting diodes (LEDs). However, the progress in achieving a higher EQE using NRs encounters several challenges, primarily involving a low photoluminescence quantum yield (PLQY) of NRs and imbalanced charge injection in NR-LEDs. In this work, we investigated NR-LEDs based on CdSe/CdZnS/ZnS rod-in-rod NRs with a high PLQY and higher linear polarization compared to those of dot-in-rod NRs. The balanced charge injection is achieved using ZnMgO nanoparticles as the electron transport layer and poly-TPD {poly[N,N'-bis(4-butylphenyl)-N,N'-bis(phenyl)benzidine]} as the hole transport layer. Therefore, the NR-LEDs exhibit a maximum EQE of 21.5% and a maximum luminance of >120 000 cd/m2 owing to the high level of in-plane transitions with a dipole moment of 90%. The NR-LEDs also have greatly inhibited droop in EQE under a high current density as well as outstanding operation lifetime and cycle stability.

Abstract
The inefficient charge transport and large exciton binding energy of quasi-2D perovskites pose challenges to the emission efficiency and roll-off issues for perovskite light-emitting diodes (PeLEDs) despite excellent stability compared to 3D counterparts. Herein, alkyldiammonium cations with different molecular sizes, namely 1,4-butanediamine (BDA), 1,6-hexanediamine (HDA) and 1,8-octanediamine (ODA), are employed into quasi-2D perovskites, to simultaneously modulate the injection efficiency and recombination dynamics. The size increase of the bulky cation leads to increased excitonic recombination and also larger Auger recombination rate. Besides, the larger size assists the formation of randomly distributed 2D perovskite nanoplates, which results in less efficient injection and deteriorates the electroluminescent performance. Moderate exciton binding energy, suppressed 2D phases and balanced carrier injection of HDA-based PeLEDs contribute to a peak external quantum efficiency of 21.9%, among the highest in quasi-2D perovskite based near-infrared devices. Besides, the HDA-PeLED shows an ultralong operational half-lifetime T50 up to 479 h at 20 mA cm‒2, and sustains the initial performance after a record-level 30 000 cycles of ON-OFF switching, attributed to the suppressed migration of iodide anions into adjacent layers and the electrochemical reaction in HDA-PeLEDs. This work provides a potential direction of cation design for efficient and stable quasi-2D-PeLEDs.

Abstract
Tailoring bandgap by mixed-halide strategy in perovskites has attracted extraordinary attention due to the flexibility of halide ion combinations and has emerged as the most direct and effective approach to precisely tune the emission wavelength throughout the entire visible light spectrum. Mixed-halide perovskites, yet, still suffered from several problems, particularly phase segregation under external stimuli because of ions migration. Understanding the essential cause and finding sound strategies, thus, remains a challenge for stable and efficient mixed-halide perovskite light-emitting diodes (PeLEDs). The review herein presents an overview of the diverse application scenarios and the profound significance associated with mixed-halide perovskites. We then summarize the challenges and potential research directions toward developing high stable and efficient mixed-halide PeLEDs. The review thus provides a systematic and timely summary for the community to deepen the understanding of mixed-halide perovskite materials and resulting PeLEDs.

Abstract
Two-dimensional (2D) hybrid organic-inorganic perovskites constitute a versatile class of materials applied to a variety of optoelectronic devices. These materials are composed of alternating layers of inorganic lead halide octahedra and organic ammonium cations. Most perovskite research studies so far have focused on organic sublattices based on phenethylammonium and alkylammonium cations, which are packed by van der Waals cohesive forces. Here, we report a more complex organic sublattice containing benzotriazole-based ammonium cations packed through interdigitated π-π stacking and hydrogen bonding. Single crystals and thin films of four perovskite derivatives are studied in depth with optical spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction, supported by density-functional theory calculations. We quantify the lattice stabilization of interdigitation, dipole-dipole interactions, and inter- as well as intramolecular hydrogen bonding. Furthermore, we investigate the driving force behind interdigitation by defining a steric occupancy factor σ and tuning the composition of the organic and inorganic sublattice. We relate the phenomenon of interdigitation to the available lattice space and to weakened hydrogen bonding to the inorganic octahedra. Finally, we find that the stabilizing interactions in the organic sublattice slightly improve the thermal stability of the perovskite. This work sheds light on the design rules and structure-property relationships of 2D layered hybrid perovskites.

Abstract
The two-dimensional (2D) perovskites have drawn intensive attention due to their unique stability and outstanding optoelectronic properties. However, the debate surrounding the spatial phase distribution and band alignment among different 2D phases in the quasi-2D perovskite has created complexities in understanding the carrier dynamics, hindering material and device development. In this study, we employed highly sensitive transient absorption spectroscopy to investigate the carrier dynamics of (BA)2(MA)n-1PbnI3n+1 quasi-2D Ruddlesden-Popper perovskite thin films, nominally prepared as n = 4. We observed the carrier-density-dependent electron and hole transfer dynamics between the 2D and three-dimensional (3D) phases. Under a low carrier density within the linear response range, we successfully resolved three ultrafast processes of both electron and hole transfers, spanning from hundreds of femtoseconds to several picoseconds, tens to hundreds of picoseconds, and hundreds of picoseconds to several nanoseconds, which can be attributed to lateral-epitaxial, partial-epitaxial, and disordered-interface heterostructures between 2D and 3D phases. By considering the interplay among the phase structure, band alignment, and carrier dynamics, we have proposed material synthesis strategies aimed at enhancing the carrier transport. Our results not only provide deep insights into an accurate intrinsic photophysics of quasi-2D perovskites but also inspire advancements in the practical application of these materials.

Abstract
The external quantum efficiency (EQE) of a perovskite-based light-emitting diode (PELED) is a key indicator, comprising the internal quantum efficiency (IQE) and light extraction efficiency (LEE). Currently, enhancing EQE faces a major challenge in optimizing LEE. This study introduces an innovative structure to boost LEE, exploring various influencing parameters. The transition from a planar to a domical architecture leverages factors like the waveguiding effect, resulting in a remarkable tenfold increase in LEE, from 6 to 59%. Additionally, investigations into factors affecting LEE, such as altering dipole orientation, material-substrate contact angle, and layer thickness, reveal the potential for further improvement. The optimized structure attains an impressive LEE value of 74%.

Abstract
Despite their excellent environmental stability, low defect density, and high carrier mobility, large-n quasi-two-dimensional halide perovskites (quasi-2DHPs) feature a limited application scope because of the formation of self-assembled multiple quantum wells (QWs) due to the similar thermal stabilities of large-n phases. However, large-n quasi-phase-pure 2DHPs (quasi-PP-2DHPs) can solve this problem perfectly. This review discusses the structures, formation mechanisms, and photoelectronic and physical properties of quasi-PP-2DHPs, summarises the corresponding single crystals, thin films, and heterojunction preparation methods, and presents the related advances. Moreover, we focus on applications of large-n quasi-PP-2DHPs in solar cells, photodetectors, lasers, light-emitting diodes, and field-effect transistors, discuss the challenges and prospects of these emerging photoelectronic materials, and review the potential technological developments in this area.

Abstract
Quasi-two-dimensional (quasi-2D) perovskites have attracted much attention due to their outstanding properties, such as inherent quantum-well structure, strong dielectric and quantum confinement, large exciton binding energy, and high photoluminescence quantum yield. By virtue of these superior merits, quasi-2D perovskites have shown great potential for next-generation light-emitting diodes (LEDs). Herein, this review presents an overview of the basic properties of quasi-2D perovskites and their photoluminescence modulations by large organic cation engineering, monovalent cation engineering, halogen engineering, defect passivation engineering, and dimensionality engineering. Furthermore, the strategies of charge-transport layer optimization, interfacial engineering, light-outcoupling efficiency improvement, and operating stability improvement are summarized for fabricating high-performance quasi-2D perovskite LEDs (PeLEDs). Finally, the challenges and outlook for the future development of quasi-2D PeLEDs are unambiguously proposed.

Abstract
A novel approach to producing high-color-purity blue-light-emitting diodes based on single-crystalline Ruddlesden-Popper perovskites (RPPs) is reported. The utilization of a pure bromide composition eliminates any possibility of halide segregation, which can otherwise lead to undesired shifts in the emission wavelength or irreversible degradation of the spectral line width. Phase-pure PEA2MAPb2Br7 single crystals with a lateral size exceeding 1 cm2 can be synthesized using the inverse temperature crystallization method. To prepare RPP layers with a thickness of less than 50 nm, we employ a thinning process of the initially thick bulk crystals, followed by a dry-transfer process to place them onto a hole transport layer and an indium-tin-oxide-coated glass substrate. By utilizing polydimethylsiloxane as a handling layer, deformations of the bulk RPP crystal and exfoliated RPP layer, as well as the formation of defects such as pinholes, can be effectively suppressed. Subsequent depositions of an electron transport layer and a metal contact complete the fabrication of electroluminescence (EL) devices. The EL devices utilizing the single-crystalline RPP demonstrate excellent spectral stability across a broad range of the applied bias voltage spanning from 4.5 to 10 V, exhibiting a significantly narrow line width of 14 nm at an emission wavelength of 440 nm that can potentially cover 99.3% of the Rec. 2020 color gamut. The sharp EL emission spectrum can be effectively preserved, avoiding any broadening of the line width, by suppressing Joule heating throughout the device operation, in addition to the intrinsic stability of single-crystalline RPPs.

Abstract
Quasi-two-dimensional (2D) perovskite light-emitting diodes are promising light sources for color display and lighting. However, poor carrier injection and transport between the bottom hole transport layer (HTL) and perovskite limit the device performance. Here we demonstrate a simple and effective way to modify the HTL for enhancing the performance of perovskite light-emitting diodes (PeLEDs). An electrolyte K2SO4 is used to mix with poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene):poly(styrene sulfonate) (PEDOT:PSS) as the hole transport layer. The K+ doping helped the quasi-2D perovskite phases grow vertically along the interface of the PEDOT:PSS, fine-modulate the phase distribution, and simultaneously reduce the defect density of quasi-2D perovskites. It also significantly reduced the exciton quenching and injection barrier at PEDOT:PSS and quasi-2D perovskite interface. The optimized green PeLEDs with the K2SO4 doped PEDOT:PSS HTL showed a maximum luminance of 17185 cd/m2 which is almost 4.7 times brighter than the control one, with a maximum external quantum efficiency of 18.64%.

Abstract
While quasi-two-dimensional (quasi-2D) perovskites have good properties of cascade energy transfer, high exciton binding energy, and high quantum efficiency, which will benefit high-efficiency blue PeLEDs, inefficient domain distribution management and unbalanced carrier transport impede device performance improvement. Herein, (2-(9H-carbazol-9-yl)ethyl)phosphonic acid (2PACz) and methyl 2-aminopyridine-4-carboxylate (MAC) were simultaneously introduced to a blue quasi-2D perovskite film. Relying on the synergistic effect of 2PACz and MAC, it not only modulates the phase distribution inhibiting the n = 2 phase but also greatly improves the electrical property of the quasi-2D perovskite film. As a result, the as-modified blue quasi-2D PeLED demonstrated an external quantum efficiency (EQE) of 17.08% and a luminance of 10142 cd m-2. This study exemplifies the synergistic effect among dual additives and offers a new effective additive strategy modulating phase distribution and building balanced carrier transport, which paves the way for the fabrication of highly efficient blue PeLEDs.

Abstract
The phenomenon of pressure-induced emission alterations related to complex excitonic dynamics in 2D lead halide perovskites (LHPs) has gained considerable attention for understanding their structure-property relationship and obtaining inaccessible luminescence under ambient conditions. However, the well-known pressure-induced emissions are limited to the formation of self-trapped excitons (STEs) due to the structural distortion under compression, which goes against the advantage of the highly pure emission of LHPs. Here, the pressure-induced detrapping from STEs to free excitons (FEs) accompanied by the dramatic transition from broadband orangish emission to narrow blue emission has been achieved in chiral 2D LHPs and R- and S-[4MeOPEA]2PbBr4, (4MeOPEA = 4-methoxy-α-methylbenzylammonium). The combined experimental and calculated results reveal that the distortion level of PbBr6 octahedra of R- and S-[4MeOPEA]2PbBr4 exhibits an unusually significant reduction as the applied pressure increases, which leads to decreased electron-phonon coupling and self-trapped energy barrier and consequently enables the detrapping of STEs to FEs. This work illustrates the dramatic exciton transfer in 2D LHPs and highlights the potential for realizing highly efficient and pure light emissions by manipulating the structural distortion via strain engineering.

Abstract
Schottky junctions are commonly used for fabricating heterojunction-based 2D transition metal dichalcogenide (TMD) photodetectors, characteristically offering a wide detection range, high sensitivity and fast response. However, these devices often suffer from reduced detectivity due to the high dark current, making it challenging to discover a simple and efficient universal way to improve the photoelectric performances. Here, we demonstrate a novel approach for integrating ZnO nanowire gates into a MoS2-Au Schottky junction to improve the photoelectric performances of photodetectors by locally controlling the Schottky barrier. This strategy remarkably reduces the dark current level of the device without affecting its photocurrent and the Schottky detectivity can be modified to a maximum detectivity of 1.4 × 1013 Jones with -20 V NG bias. This work provides potential possibilities for tuning the band structure of other materials and optimizing the performance of heterojunction photodetectors.

Abstract
Tip-enhanced nano-spectroscopy and -imaging have significantly advanced our understanding of low-dimensional quantum materials and their interactions with light, providing a rich insight into the underlying physics at their natural length scale. Recently, various functionalities of the plasmonic tip expand the capabilities of the nanoscopy, enabling dynamic manipulation of light-matter interactions at the nanoscale. In this review, we focus on a new paradigm of the nanoscopy, shifting from the conventional role of imaging and spectroscopy to the dynamical control approach of the tip-induced light-matter interactions. We present three different approaches of tip-induced control of light-matter interactions, such as cavity-gap control, pressure control, and near-field polarization control. Specifically, we discuss the nanoscale modifications of radiative emissions for various emitters from weak to strong coupling regime, achieved by the precise engineering of the cavity-gap. Furthermore, we introduce recent works on light-matter interactions controlled by tip-pressure and near-field polarization, especially tunability of the bandgap, crystal structure, photoluminescence quantum yield, exciton density, and energy transfer in a wide range of quantum materials. We envision that this comprehensive review not only contributes to a deeper understanding of the physics of nanoscale light-matter interactions but also offers a valuable resource to nanophotonics, plasmonics, and materials science for future technological advancements.

Abstract
Here we study the effect of ion migration on the performance of perovskite light emitting diodes (PeLEDs). We compared aromatic and linear barrier molecules in Ruddlesden-Popper and Dion-Jacobson two-dimensional perovskites having multiple quantum well (MQW) structures. PeLED devices were fabricated by using the same conditions and architecture, while their electroluminescence properties and ion migration behavior were investigated. Impedance spectroscopy measurements were used to analyze the PeLEDs, which found a direct link between the barrier molecule type, the device efficiency, and ion migration. The best performing LEDs were based on the aromatic barriers, which present dominant inductive impedance, indicating an earlier onset voltage of radiative recombination. These findings present an approach of how to control radiative emission in perovskite LEDs which opens the way for further improvement in PeLEDs and memristors.

Abstract
Two-dimensional (2D) hybrid perovskites harness the chemical and structural versatility of organic compounds. Here, we explore 2D perovskites that incorporate both a first organic component, a primary ammonium cation, and a second neutral organic module. Through the experimental examination of 42 organic pairs with a range of functional groups and organic backbones, we identify five crystallization scenarios that occur upon mixing. Only one leads to the cointercalation of the organic modules with distinct and extended interlayer spacing, which is observed with the aid of X-ray diffraction (XRD) pattern analysis combined with cross-sectional transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and elemental analysis. We present a picture in which complementary pairs, capable of forming intermolecular bonds, cocrystallize with multiple structural arrangements. These arrangements are a function of the ratio of organic content, annealing temperature, and substrate surface characteristics. We highlight how noncovalent bonds, particularly hydrogen and halogen bonding, enable the influence over the organic sublattice in hybrid halide perovskites.

Abstract
Metal halide perovskites have emerged as promising light-emitting materials for next-generation displays owing to their remarkable material characteristics including broad color tunability, pure color emission with remarkably narrow bandwidths, high quantum yield, and solution processability. Despite recent advances have pushed the luminance efficiency of monochromic perovskite light-emitting diodes (PeLEDs) to their theoretical limits, their current fabrication using the spin-coating process poses limitations for fabrication of full-color displays. To integrate PeLEDs into full-color display panels, it is crucial to pattern red-green-blue (RGB) perovskite pixels, while mitigating issues such as cross-contamination and reductions in luminous efficiency. Herein, we present state-of-the-art patterning technologies for the development of full-color PeLEDs. First, we highlight recent advances in the development of efficient PeLEDs. Second, we discuss various patterning techniques of MPHs (i.e., photolithography, inkjet printing, electron beam lithography and laser-assisted lithography, electrohydrodynamic jet printing, thermal evaporation, and transfer printing) for fabrication of RGB pixelated displays. These patterning techniques can be classified into two distinct approaches: in situ crystallization patterning using perovskite precursors and patterning of colloidal perovskite nanocrystals. This review highlights advancements and limitations in patterning techniques for PeLEDs, paving the way for integrating PeLEDs into full-color panels.

Abstract
Quasi-2D perovskites, multiquantum well materials with the energy cascade structure, exhibit impressive optoelectronic properties and a wide range of applications in various optoelectronic devices. However, the insufficient exciton energy transfer caused by the excess of small-n phases that induce nonradiative recombination and the spatially random phase distribution that impedes charge transport severely inhibit the device performance of light-emitting diodes (LEDs). Here, a faster energy transfer process and efficient carrier recombination are achieved by introducing the multifunctional additive 2-(methylsulfonyl)-4-(trifluoromethyl)benzoic acid (MTA) to manipulate the crystallization process of perovskites. The introduction of MTA not only constrains the PEA and restrains the formation of small-n phases to improve the energy transfer process but also optimizes the crystal orientation to promote charge transport. As a result, highly efficient pure green quasi-2D perovskite LEDs with a peak EQE of 25.9%, a peak current efficiency of 108.1 cd A-1, and a maximum luminance of 288798 cd m-2 are achieved.

Abstract
The critical photophysical properties of lead-free halide double perovskites (HDPs) must be substantially improved for various applications. In this regard, strain engineering is a powerful tool for enhancing optoelectronic performance with precise control. Here, we employ ab initio simulations to investigate the impact of mild compressive and tensile strains on the photophysics of Cs2AgB'X6 (B' = Sb, Bi; X = Cl, Br) perovskites. Depending on the pnictogen and halide atoms, the band gap and band edge positions of HDPs can be tuned to a significant extent by controlling the applied external strain. Cs2AgSbBr6 has the most substantial strain response under structural perturbations. The subtle electronic interactions among the participating orbitals and the band dispersion at the edge states are enhanced under compressive strain, reducing the carrier effective masses. The exciton binding energies for these Br-based HDPs are in the range 59-78 meV and weaken in the compressed lattices, suggesting improved free carrier generation. Overall, the study emphasizes the potential of lattice strain engineering to boost the photophysical properties of HDPs that can ultimately improve their optoelectronic performance.

Abstract
Light emitting diodes (LEDs) have become part of numerous electrical and electronic systems such as lighting, displays, status indicator lamps and wearable electronics. Owing to their excellent optoelectronic properties and deposition via simple solution process, metal halide perovskites possess unique potential for developing halide perovskite-based LEDs (PeLEDs) with superior photoluminescence efficiencies leading to external quantum efficiencies beyond 20% for PeLEDS. However, the limited durability, high operative voltages, and challenges of scale-up are persisting barriers in achieving required technology readiness levels. To build up the existing knowledge and raise the device performance this review provides a state-of-the-art study on the properties, film and device fabrication, efficiency, and stability of PeLEDs. In terms of commercialization, PeLEDs need to overcome materials and device challenges including stability, ion migration, phase segregation, and joule heating, which are discussed in this review. We hope, discussions about the strategies to overcome the stability issues and enhancement the materials intrinsic properties towards development more stable and efficient optoelectronic devices can pave the way for scalability and cost-effective production of PeLEDs.

Abstract
With advances in flexible electronics, innovative foldable, rollable, and stretchable displays have been developed to maintain their performance under various deformations. These flexible devices can develop more innovative designs than conventional devices due to their light weight, high space efficiency, and practical convenience. However, developing flexible devices requires material innovation because the devices must be flexible and exhibit desirable electrical insulating/semiconducting/metallic properties. Recently, emerging 2D materials such as graphene, hexagonal boron nitride, and transition metal dichalcogenides have attracted considerable research attention because of their outstanding electrical, optical, and mechanical properties, which are ideal for flexible electronics. The recent progress and challenges of 2D material growth and display applications are reviewed and perspectives for exploring 2D materials for display applications are discussed.

Abstract
Quasi-two-dimensional (quasi-2D) perovskites exhibit excellent performance when applied to light-emitting diodes (LEDs). However, quasi-2D perovskite films generally have nonuniform n phases and irregular internal crystal structures, which degrade the device's performance. Here, we propose using a Dion-Jacobson (DJ)-type organic spacer to modulate the phase distribution of the Ruddlesden-Popper (RP) quasi-2D perovskite. A DJ-type organic spacer cation, 1.6-hexamethylenediamine (HDABr2), was introduced into the perovskite as the second spacer cation with propylamine hydrobromide (PABr). As DJ-type and RP-type perovskites have similar spacings, RP-DJ style does not cause a chaotic crystalline structure; instead, it modulates the perovskite crystallization and narrows the phase distribution. In parallel, there is a substantial improvement in the maximum luminance, current efficiency, external quantum efficiency, and device stability of the quasi-2D perovskite LEDs. This work provides a novel concept for combining the organic spacer cations for quasi-2D perovskites.

Abstract
The development of broadband emitters based on metal halide perovskites (MHPs) requires the elucidation of structure-emission property correlations. Herein, we report a combined experimental and theoretical study on a series of novel low-dimensional lead chloride perovskites, including ditopic aromatic cations. Synthesized lead chloride perovskites and their bromide analogues show both narrow and broad photoluminescence emission properties as a function of their cation and halide nature. Structural analysis shows a correlation between the rigidity of the ditopic cations and the lead halide octahedral distortions. Density functional theory calculations reveal, in turn, the pivotal role of octahedral distortions in the formation of self-trapped excitons, which are responsible for the insurgence of broad emission and large Stokes shifts together with a contribution of halide vacancies. For the considered MHP series, the use of conventional octahedral distortion parameters allows us to nicely describe the trend of emission properties, thus providing a solid guide for further materials design.
