Abstract
The rapid advancement of nanotechnology has sparked much interest in applying nanoscale perovskite materials for photodetection applications. These materials are promising candidates for next-generation photodetectors (PDs) due to their unique optoelectronic properties and flexible synthesis routes. This review explores the approaches used in the development and use of optoelectronic devices made of different nanoscale perovskite architectures, including quantum dots, nanosheets, nanorods, nanowires, and nanocrystals. Through a thorough analysis of recent literature, the review also addresses common issues like the mechanisms underlying the degradation of perovskite PDs and offers perspectives on potential solutions to improve stability and scalability that impede widespread implementation. In addition, it highlights that photodetection encompasses the detection of light fields in dimensions other than light intensity and suggests potential avenues for future research to overcome these obstacles and fully realize the potential of nanoscale perovskite materials in state-of-the-art photodetection systems. This review provides a comprehensive overview of nanoscale perovskite PDs and guides future research efforts towards improved performance and wider applicability, making it a valuable resource for researchers.

Abstract
Metal halide perovskite light-emitting diodes (PeLEDs) have shown promise for high-definition displays and flat-panel lighting because of their wide color gamut, narrow emission band, and high brightness. The external quantum efficiency of PeLEDs increased rapidly from ≈1% to more than 25% in the past few years. However, most of these high-performance devices are fabricated using a spin coating method with a small device area of <0.1 cm2, limiting their commercial applications. Recently, large-area PeLEDs have attracted growing attention and significant breakthroughs have been reported. This perspective first introduces the pros and cons of each technique in making large-area PeLEDs. The advances in the fabrication of large-area PeLEDs are then summarized using spin coating and mass-production methods such as inkjet printing, blade coating, and thermal evaporation. Moreover, the challenging issues will be discussed that are urgent to be solved for large-area PeLEDs.

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.

Buried interface modification and light outcoupling strategy for efficient blue perovskite light-emitting diodes. Sci Bull (Beijing) 2024; 69:2231-2240. [PMID: 38851911 DOI: 10.1016/j.scib.2024.05.028] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/18/2024] [Revised: 05/13/2024] [Accepted: 05/20/2024] [Indexed: 06/10/2024]
Abstract
Perovskite light-emitting diodes (PeLEDs) exhibit remarkable potential in the field of displays and solid-state lighting. However, blue PeLEDs, a key element for practical applications, still lag behind their green and red counterparts, due to a combination of strong nonradiative recombination losses and unoptimized device structures. In this report, we propose a buried interface modification strategy to address these challenges by focusing on the bottom-hole transport layer (HTL) of the PeLEDs. On the one hand, a multifunctional molecule, aminoacetic acid hydrochloride (AACl), is introduced to modify the HTL/perovskite interface to regulate the perovskite crystallization. Experimental investigations and theoretical calculations demonstrate that AACl can effectively reduce the nonradiative recombination losses in bulk perovskites by suppressing the growth of low-n perovskite phases and also the losses at the bottom interface by passivating interfacial defects. On the other hand, a self-assembly nanomesh structure is ingeniously developed within the HTLs. This nanomesh structure is meticulously crafted through the blending of poly-(9,9-dioctyl-fluorene-co-N-(4-butyl phenyl) diphenylamine) and poly (n-vinyl carbazole), significantly enhancing the light outcoupling efficiency in PeLEDs. As a result, our blue PeLEDs achieve remarkable external quantum efficiencies, 20.4% at 487 nm and 12.5% at 470 nm, which are among the highest reported values. Our results offer valuable insights and effective methods for achieving high-performance blue PeLEDs.

Abstract
Polymer materials suffer mechano-oxidative deterioration or degradation in the presence of molecular oxygen and mechanical forces. In contrast, aerobic biological activities combined with mechanical stimulus promote tissue regeneration and repair in various organs. A synthetic approach in which molecular oxygen and mechanical energy synergistically initiate polymerization will afford similar robustness in polymeric materials. Herein, aerobic mechanochemical reversible-deactivation radical polymerization was developed by the design of an organic mechano-labile initiator which converts oxygen into activators in response to ball milling, enabling the reaction to proceed in the air with low-energy input, operative simplicity, and the avoidance of potentially harmful organic solvents. In addition, this approach not only complements the existing methods to access well-defined polymers but also has been successfully employed for the controlled polymerization of (meth)acrylates, styrenic monomers and solid acrylamides as well as the synthesis of polymer/perovskite hybrids without solvent at room temperature which are inaccessible by other means.

Abstract
Lead halide perovskite nanocrystals (PNCs) hold immense promise in high-performance light-emitting diodes (LEDs) for future high-definition displays. Their adjustable bandgaps, vivid colors, and good carrier mobility are key factors that make them a potential game-changer. However, to fully harness their potential, the efficiency and long-term stability of PNCs-based light-emitting diodes (PNC-LEDs) must be enhanced. Recent material research results have shed light on the leading cause of performance decline in PNC-LEDs, which is ionic migration linked to surface defects and grain boundary imperfections. This review aims to present recent advancements in the modification strategies of PNCs, focusing on obtaining high-quality PNCs for LEDs. The PNC modification strategies are first summarized, including crystal structure regulation, nanocrystal size tuning, ligand exchange, and surface passivation. Then, the effects of these material design aspects on LED device performances, such as efficiency, brightness, and stability, are presented. Based on the efficient modification strategies, we propose promising material design insights for efficient and stable PNC-LEDs.

Abstract
The power conversion efficiencies (PCEs) of polycrystalline perovskite (PVK) solar cells (SCs) (PC-PeSCs) have rapidly increased. However, PC-PeSCs are intrinsically unstable without encapsulation, and their efficiency drops during large-scale production; these problems hinder the commercial viability of PeSCs. Stability can be increased by using colloidal PVK nanocrystals (c-PeNCs), which have high surface strains, low defect density, and exceptional crystal quality. The use of c-PeNCs separates the crystallization process from the film formation process, which is preponderant in large-scale fabrication. Consequently, the use of c-PeNCs has substantial potential to overcome challenges encountered when fabricating PC-PeSCs. Research on colloidal nanocrystal-based PVK SCs (NC-PeSCs) has increased their PCEs to a level greater than those of other quantum-dot SCs, but has not reached the PCEs of PC-PeSCs; this inferiority significantly impedes widespread application of NC-PeSCs. This review first introduces the distinctive properties of c-PeNCs, then the strategies that have been used to achieve high-efficiency NC-PeSCs. Then it discusses in detail the persisting challenges in this domain. Specifically, the major challenges and solutions for NC-PeSCs related to low short-circuit current density Jsc are covered. Last, the article presents a perspective on future research directions and potential applications in the realm of NC-PeSCs.

Abstract
Decreasing perovskite nanocrystal size increases radiative recombination due to the quantum confinement effect, but also increases the Auger recombination rate which leads to carrier imbalance in the emitting layers of electroluminescent devices. Here, we overcome this trade-off by increasing the exciton effective mass without affecting the size, which is realized through the trace Cd2+ doping of formamidinium lead bromide perovskite nanocrystals. We observe an ~2.7 times increase in the exciton binding energy benefiting from a slight distortion of the [BX6]4- octahedra caused by doping in the case of that the Auger recombination rate is almost unchanged. As a result, bright color-saturated green emitting perovskite nanocrystals with a photoluminescence quantum yield of 96 % are obtained. Cd2+ doping also shifts up the energy levels of the nanocrystals, relative to the Fermi level so that heavily n-doped emitters convert into only slightly n-doped ones; this boosts the charge injection efficiency of the corresponding light-emitting diodes. The light-emitting devices based on those nanocrystals reached a high external quantum efficiency of 29.4 % corresponding to a current efficiency of 123 cd A-1, and showed dramatically improved device lifetime, with a narrow bandwidth of 22 nm and Commission Internationale de I'Eclairage coordinates of (0.20, 0.76) for color-saturated green emission for the electroluminescence peak centered at 534 nm, thus being fully compliant with the latest standard for wide color gamut displays.

Abstract
Metal-halide perovskite nanocrystals (NCs) are one of the most promising emitters for the application of display and nanolight sources. The full width at half-maximum (FWHM) of photoluminescence (PL) emission is essential for color purity, which however remains a difficulty to further reduce the FWHM of the perovskite NCs at room temperature. Here, we show the quasi-sphere perovskite NCs with narrow PL emission at a deep-blue wavelength of ∼430 nm; its PL FWHM reaches ∼11 nm at room temperature, owing to the monodispersion in size distribution as well as the symmetric quasi-sphere morphology of NCs releasing the fine structure splitting-induced inhomogeneous broadening. Through regulating A cations with respect to the ratio of FA (or MA)-to-Cs and Cs-to-Pb, the PL emission of the NCs could be tuned from ∼505 to ∼430 nm combined with varied morphologies from large cube to small quasi-sphere. Such spectroscopic and morphological discrepancies are supposed to be attributed to the different crystalline kinetics that is strongly dependent on the synthetic condition. To be specific, in the case of increasing FA (or MA)-to-Cs, the growth rate of CsPbBr3 and FAPbBr3 (or MAPbBr3) perovskites is determined by the reactivity of transient species, while in the case of decreasing the Cs-to-Pb ratio, the growth rate of perovskites is slowed down by the serious reduction of Cs+ in the precursor. This study provides an effective strategy to adjust the emission across from green to deep-blue color and promotes the perovskite NCs with a narrow FWHM, and tunable PL emission facilitates in application of optoelectronic devices.

RSC Adv 2024; 14:18567-18575. [PMID: 38860259 PMCID: PMC11163951 DOI: 10.1039/d4ra02652g] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/09/2024] [Accepted: 05/28/2024] [Indexed: 06/12/2024] Open
Abstract
All-inorganic perovskites show great promise as an emission layer in perovskite light-emitting diodes (PeLEDs) owing to their easy solution processing, low manufacturing cost, and excellent optoelectronic properties. However, there is still an immense performance gap from small-area devices to large-area PeLED devices. The inhomogeneity of large-area high-quality perovskite films inevitably leads to vast defects and electroluminescence performance losses. Herein, a post-hot-cast annealing deposition scheme and the introduction of the multifunctional molecule 2-amino-1,3-propanediol (APDO) were proposed to regulate the crystallization of the perovskite film. As a result, uniform APDO:CsPbBr2.5Cl0.5 perovskite films with high crystallinity and lower defect density were deposited by post-hot-cast annealing. A decent maximum brightness of 2659 cd m-2 was achieved for the large-area cyan PeLEDs with an emitting area of 400 mm2.

Abstract
Tin (Sn)-based perovskites are being investigated in many optoelectronic applications given their similar valence electron configuration to that of lead-based perovskites and the potential environmental hazards of lead-based perovskites. However, the formation of high-quality Sn-based perovskite films faces several challenges, mainly due to the easy oxidation of Sn2+ to Sn4+ and the fast crystallization rate. Here, to develop an environmentally friendly process for Sn-based perovskite fabrication, a series of natural antioxidants are studied as additives and ascorbic acid (VitC) is found to have a superior ability to inhibit the oxidation problem. A common cyclic molecule, 18-Crown-6, is further added as a second additive, which synergizes with VitC to significantly reduce the nonradiative recombination pathways in the PEA2SnI4 film. This synergistic effect greatly improves the performance of 2D red Sn-based PeLED, with a maximum external quantum efficiency of 1.87% (≈9 times that of the pristine device), a purer color, and better bias stability. This work demonstrates the potential of the dual-additive approach in enhancing the performance of 2D Sn-based PeLEDs, while the use of these environmentally friendly additives contributes to their future sustainability.

Abstract
Perovskite nanocrystals (PNCs) offer unique advantages in large-area and thick-film deposition for X-ray detection applications due to the decoupling of the crystallization of perovskite from film formation, as well as their low-temperature and scalable deposition methods. However, the partial detachment of long-chain ligands in PNCs during the purification process would lead to the exposure of surface defects, making it challenging to ensure efficient charge carrier extraction and stable X-ray detection. In this study, we propose a beneficial strategy that involves the in situ reparation of these exposed defects with sodium bromide (NaBr) during the purification process to construct CsPbBr3 PNC-organic bulk heterostructure X-ray detectors. The NaBr-passivated PNCs exhibit stronger photoluminescence intensity and lower trap density in films compared to those of the control samples, confirming the effective passivation of halide vacancy defects. Furthermore, the NiOx hole transport layer with remarkable electron blocking capability is introduced to further suppress the dark current of the devices. Consequently, the optimal devices exhibit a large sensitivity of 4237 μC Gyair-1 cm-2 and a low dark current density of 10 nA cm-2, as well as improved operational stability, which allows for high-contrast and low-dose X-ray imaging applications.

Abstract
CdSe nanoplatelets (NPLs) are promising 2D semiconductors for optoelectronic applications, in which efficient charge transport properties are desirable. It is reported that thermal annealing constitutes an effective strategy to control the optical absorption and electrical properties of CdSe NPLs by tuning the inter-NPL distance. Combining optical absorption, transmission electron microscopy, and thermogravimetric analysis, it is revealed that the thermal decomposition of ligands (e.g., cadmium myristate) governs the inter-NPL distance and thus the inter-NPL electronic coupling strength. Employing ultrafast terahertz spectroscopy, it is shown that this enhanced electronic coupling increases both the free carrier generation efficiency and the short-range mobility in NPL solids. The results show a straightforward method of controlling the interfacial electronic coupling strength for developing functional optoelectronic devices through thermal treatments.

Abstract
Developing green perovskite light-emitting diodes (PeLEDs) with a high external quantum efficiency (EQE) and low efficiency roll-off at high brightness remains a critical challenge. Nanostructured emitter-based devices have shown high efficiency but restricted ascending luminance at high current densities, while devices based on large-sized crystals exhibit low efficiency roll-off but face great challenges to high efficiency. Herein, we develop an all-inorganic device architecture combined with utilizing tens-of-nanometers-sized CsPbBr3 (TNS-CsPbBr3) emitters in a carrier-confined heterostructure to realize green PeLEDs that exhibit high EQEs and low efficiency roll-off. A typical type-I heterojunction containing TNS-CsPbBr3 crystals and wide-bandgap Cs4PbBr6 within a grain is formed by carefully controlling the precursor ratio. These heterostructured TNS-CsPbBr3 emitters simultaneously enhance carrier confinement and retain low Auger recombination under a large injected carrier density. Benefiting from a simple device architecture consisting of an emissive layer and an oxide electron-transporting layer, the PeLEDs exhibit a sub-bandgap turn-on voltage of 2.0 V and steeply rising luminance. In consequence, we achieved green PeLEDs demonstrating a peak EQE of 17.0% at the brightness of 36,000 cd m-2, and the EQE remained at 15.7% and 12.6% at the brightness of 100,000 and 200,000 cd m-2, respectively. In addition, our results underscore the role of interface degradation during device operation as a factor in device failure.

Abstract
Flexible photodetectors (PDs) have garnered increasing attention for their potential applications in diverse fields, including weather monitoring, smart robotics, smart textiles, electronic eyes, wearable biomedical monitoring devices, and so on. Notably, perovskite nanostructures have emerged as a promising material for flexible PDs due to their distinctive features, such as a large optical absorption coefficient, tunable band gap, extended photoluminescence decay time, high carrier mobility, low defect density, long exciton diffusion lengths, strong self-trapped effect, good mechanical flexibility, and facile synthesis methods. In this review, we first introduce various synthesis methods for perovskite nanostructures and elucidate their corresponding optical and electrical properties, encompassing quantum dots, nanocrystals, nanowires, nanobelts, nanosheets, single-crystal thin films, polycrystalline thin films, and nanostructured arrays. Furthermore, the working mechanism and key performance parameters of optoelectronic devices are summarized. The review also systematically compiles recent advancements in flexible PDs based on various nanostructured perovskites. Finally, we present the current challenges and prospects for the development of perovskite nanostructures-based flexible PDs.

Abstract
Perovskite light-emitting diodes (PeLEDs) have shown great potential in the display domain due to their wide color gamut, narrow emission, and low cost. In current PeLEDs manufacturing methods, thermal evaporation shows great competitiveness with its advantages of easy patterning, production line compatibility, and solvent-free processability. However, the development of thermally evaporated blue PeLEDs is limited by their low radiative recombination rate and high defect density. Herein, we report high-performance thermally evaporated blue PeLEDs by in situ introduction of ammonium cations. We confirm that phenethylammonium (PEA+) has lower adsorption energy, which significantly reduces the low-n phases in a quasi-2D perovskite film. The energy transfer rate is also promoted by the PEA+ addition. As a result, we fabricate blue PeLEDs with an external quantum efficiency of 1.56% by thermal evaporation. The strategy of arranging phase distribution could benefit the industrialization of full-color PeLEDs.

Abstract
Microscale patterning of colloidal perovskite nanocrystals (NCs) is essential for their integration in advanced device platforms, such as high-definition displays. However, perovskite NCs usually show degraded optical and/or electrical properties after patterning with existing approaches, posing a critical challenge for their optoelectronic applications. Here we achieve nondestructive, direct optical patterning of perovskite NCs with rationally designed carbene-based cross-linkers and demonstrate their applications in high-performance light-emitting diodes. We reveal that both the photochemical properties and the electronic structures of cross-linkers need to be carefully tailored to the material properties of perovskite NCs. This method produces high-resolution (∼4000 ppi) NC patterns with preserved photoluminescent quantum efficiencies and charge transport properties. Prototype light-emitting diodes with patterned/cross-linked NC layers show a maximum luminance of over 60000 cd m-2 and a peak external quantum efficiency of 16%, among the highest for patterned perovskite electroluminescent devices. Such a material-adapted patterning method enabled by designs from a photochemistry perspective could foster the applications of perovskite NCs in system-level electronic and optoelectronic devices.

Abstract
Presynthesized perovskite quantum dots are very promising for making films with different compositions, as they decouple crystallization and film-formation processes. However, fabricating large-area uniform films using perovskite quantum dots is still very challenging due to the complex fluidic dynamics of the solvents. Here, we report a robust film-formation approach using an environmental-friendly binary-solvent strategy. Nonbenzene solvents, n-octane and n-hexane, are mixed to manipulate the fluidic and evaporation dynamics of the perovskite quantum dot inks, resulting in balanced Marangoni flow, enhanced ink spreadability, and uniform solute-redistribution. We can therefore blade-coat large-area uniform perovskite films with different compositions using the same fabrication parameters. White and red perovskite light-emitting diodes incorporating blade-coated films exhibit a decent external quantum efficiency of 10.6% and 15.3% (0.04 cm2), and show a uniform emission up to 28 cm2. This work represents a significant step toward the application of perovskite light-emitting diodes in flat panel solid-state lighting.

Abstract
Self-powered skin optoelectronics fabricated on ultrathin polymer films is emerging as one of the most promising components for the next-generation Internet of Things (IoT) technology. However, a longstanding challenge is the device underperformance owing to the low process temperature of polymer substrates. In addition, broadband electroluminescence (EL) based on organic or polymer semiconductors inevitably suffers from periodic spectral distortion due to Fabry-Pérot (FP) interference upon substrate bending, preventing advanced applications. Here, ultraflexible skin optoelectronics integrating high-performance solar cells and monochromatic light-emitting diodes using solution-processed perovskite semiconductors is presented. n-i-p perovskite solar cells and perovskite nanocrystal light-emitting diodes (PNC-LEDs), with power-conversion and current efficiencies of 18.2% and 15.2 cd A-1 , respectively, are demonstrated on ultrathin polymer substrates with high thermal stability, which is a record-high efficiency for ultraflexible perovskite solar cell. The narrowband EL with a full width at half-maximum of 23 nm successfully eliminates FP interference, yielding bending-insensitive spectra even under 50% of mechanical compression. Photo-plethysmography using the skin optoelectronic device demonstrates a signal selectivity of 98.2% at 87 bpm pulse. The results presented here pave the way to inexpensive and high-performance ultrathin optoelectronics for self-powered applications such as wearable displays and indoor IoT sensors.

Abstract
Metal halide perovskite light-emitting diodes (PeLEDs) are attracting increasing attention due to their potential applications in flat panel lighting and displays. The solution process, large-area fabrication, and flexibility are attractive properties of PeLEDs over traditional inorganic LEDs. However, it is still very challenging to deposit uniform perovskite films on flexible substrates using a blade or slot-die coating, as the flexible substrate is not perfectly flat. Here, the inkjet printing technique is adopted, and the key challenges are overcome step-by-step in preparing large-area films on flexible substrates. Double-hole transporting layers are first used and a wetting interfacial layer to improve the surface wettability so that the printed perovskite droplets can form a continuous wet film. The fluidic and evaporation dynamics of the perovskite wet layer is manipulated to suppress the coffee ring effect by solvent engineering. Uniform perovskite films are obtained finally on flexible substrates with different perovskite compositions. The peak external quantum efficiency of the inkjet-printed PeLEDs reaches 14.3%. Large-area flexible PeLEDs (4 × 7 cm2 ) also show very uniform emission. This work represents a significant step toward real applications of large-area PeLEDs in flexible flat-panel lighting.

How to improve the structural stabilities of halide perovskite quantum dots: review of various strategies to enhance the structural stabilities of halide perovskite quantum dots.

[PMID: 38279984 PMCID: PMC10821855 DOI: 10.1186/s40580-024-00412-x] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/13/2023] [Accepted: 01/08/2024] [Indexed: 01/29/2024]
Abstract
Halide perovskites have emerged as promising materials for various optoelectronic devices because of their excellent optical and electrical properties. In particular, halide perovskite quantum dots (PQDs) have garnered considerable attention as emissive materials for light-emitting diodes (LEDs) because of their higher color purities and photoluminescence quantum yields compared to conventional inorganic quantum dots (CdSe, ZnSe, ZnS, etc.). However, PQDs exhibit poor structural stabilities in response to external stimuli (moisture, heat, etc.) owing to their inherent ionic nature. This review presents recent research trends and insights into improving the structural stabilities of PQDs. In addition, the origins of the poor structural stabilities of PQDs and various methods to overcome this drawback are discussed. The structural degradation of PQDs is mainly caused by two mechanisms: (1) defect formation on the surface of the PQDs by ligand dissociation (i.e., detachment of weakly bound ligands from the surface of PQDs), and (2) vacancy formation by halide migration in the lattices of the PQDs due to the low migration energy of halide ions. The structural stabilities of PQDs can be improved through four methods: (1) ligand modification, (2) core-shell structure, (3) crosslinking, and (4) metal doping, all of which are presented in detail herein. This review provides a comprehensive understanding of the structural stabilities and opto-electrical properties of PQDs and is expected to contribute to future research on improving the device performance of perovskite quantum dot LEDs (PeLEDs).

Abstract
The uniform deposition of perovskite light-emitting diodes (PeLEDs) and their integration with backplane thin-film transistors (TFTs) remain challenging for large-area display applications. Herein, an active-matrix PeLED display fabricated via the heterogeneous integration of cesium lead bromide LEDs and molybdenum disulfide (MoS2 )-based TFTs is presented. The single-source evaporation method enables the deposition of highly uniform perovskite thin films over large areas. PeLEDs are integrated with MoS2 TFTs to fabricate an active-matrix PeLED display with an 8 × 8 array, which exhibits excellent brightness control capability and high switching speed. This study demonstrates the potential of PeLEDs as candidates for next-generation displays and presents a novel approach for fabricating optoelectronic devices via the heterogeneous integration of 2D materials and perovskites, thereby paving the way toward the fabrication of practical future optoelectronic systems.

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
Perovskite nanocrystals have been widely applied in the field of light-emitting diodes (LEDs) due to their excellent optoelectronic properties. However, there is generally a serious degradation of device efficiency when transferring the device from rigid to flexible substrates due to the high roughness, poor wettability, and low endurance temperature of flexible substrates. Herein, a highly flexible perovskite light-emitting diode (PeLED) by utilizing label paper as substrates and poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) as the modified layer was reported. Compared with the reference device based on commonly used polyethylene terephthalate (PET) substrates, the label paper/PMMA-based devices did not show the degraded device performance when transferring from rigid to flexible substrates. This is mainly because of low roughness and good wettability of PMMA-modified label paper, which significantly improve the film-forming ability of the bottom electrode and functional layer. Furthermore, the flexibility of both devices was explored by a three-point bending flexural test, indicating that the label paper-based device has better bending stability than the polyethylene terephthalate-based one due to the lower flexural modulus for label paper. As a result, the label paper-based flexible PeLEDs exhibited the highest external quantum efficiency (EQE) of 14.3% among perovskite nanocrystal-based flexible LEDs and preeminent flexibility with 29% luminance degradation after bending for 1000 cycles at a small radius of 1.5 mm. This extension of the substrate to paper will widen the opportunity of PeLEDs in extremely flexible and inexpensive applications.

Abstract
Metal halide perovskite nanocrystals (PeNCs) have outstanding luminescent properties that are suitable for displays that have high color purity and high absorption coefficient; so they are evaluated for application as light emitters for organic light-emitting diodes, light-converters for downconversion displays, and future near-eye augmented reality/virtual reality displays. However, PeNCs are chemically vulnerable to heat, light, and moisture, and these weaknesses must be overcome before devices that use PeNCs can be commercialized. This review examines strategies to overcome the low stability of PeNCs and thereby permit the fabrication of stable downconversion films, and summarizes downconversion-type display applications and future prospects. First, methods to increase the chemical stability of PeNCs are examined. Second, methods to encapsulate PeNC downconversion films to increase their lifetime are reviewed. Third, methods to increase the long-term compatibility of resin with PeNCs, and finally, how to secure stability using fillers added to the resin are summarized. Fourth, the method to manufacture downconversion films and the procedure to evaluate their reliability for commercialization is then described. Finally, the prospects of a downconversion system that exploits the properties of PeNCs and can be employed to fabricate fine pixels for high-resolution displays and for near-eye augmented reality/virtual reality devices are explored.

Abstract
Colloidal semiconductor nanocrystals (NCs) have been extensively investigated owing to their unique properties induced by the quantum confinement effect. The advent of colloidal synthesis routes led to the design of stable colloidal NCs with uniform size, shape, and composition. Metal oxides, phosphides, and chalcogenides (ZnE, CdE, PbE, where E = S, Se, or Te) are few of the most important monocomponent semiconductor NCs, which show excellent optoelectronic properties. The ability to build quantum confined heterostructures comprising two or more semiconductor NCs offer greater customization and tunability of properties compared to their monocomponent counterparts. More recently, the halide perovskite NCs showed exceptional optoelectronic properties for energy generation and harvesting applications. Numerous applications including photovoltaic, photodetectors, light emitting devices, catalysis, photochemical devices, and solar driven fuel cells have demonstrated using these NCs in the recent past. Overall, semiconductor NCs prepared via the colloidal synthesis route offer immense potential to become an alternative to the presently available device applications. This feature article will explore the progress of NCs syntheses with outstanding potential to control the shape and spatial dimensionality required for photovoltaic, light emitting diode, and photocatalytic applications. We also attempt to address the challenges associated with achieving high efficiency devices with the NCs and possible solutions including interface engineering, packing control, encapsulation chemistry, and device architecture engineering.

Abstract
Lanthanide-doped lead halide perovskites have demonstrated great potential for photoelectric applications. However, there is a long-standing controversy about the existence of lanthanide ions, e.g., whether the doping of Ln3+ is successful or not; the substituting sites of Ln3+ in lead halide perovskites are unclear. We directly identify the doped Yb3+ in CsPbCl3 perovskites by using the state-of-the-art transmission electron microscopy and three-dimensional atom probe tomography at atomic scale. Different from the previous assumptions and/or results, we evidence that Yb3+ simultaneously replace Pb2+ and occupy the lattice interstitial sites. Furthermore, we directly observe the cluster phenomenon of CsPbCl3 single crystal at near atomic scale. Density functional theory modeling further confirms and explains the mechanisms of our findings. Our findings thus provide an atomic-level understanding of the doping mechanism in perovskites and will stimulate a further thinking of the doping effect on the performance of perovskites.

Overcoming Charge Confinement in Perovskite Nanocrystal Solar Cells. ADVANCED MATERIALS (DEERFIELD BEACH, FLA.) 2023; 35:e2304533. [PMID: 37390092 DOI: 10.1002/adma.202304533] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/14/2023] [Revised: 06/27/2023] [Accepted: 06/28/2023] [Indexed: 07/02/2023]
Abstract
The small nanoparticle size and long-chain ligands in colloidal metal halide perovskite quantum dots (PeQDs) cause charge confinement, which impedes exciton dissociation and carrier extraction in PeQD solar cells, so they have low short-circuit current density Jsc , which impedes further increases in their power conversion efficiency (PCE). Here, a re-assembling process (RP) is developed for perovskite nanocrystalline (PeNC) films made of colloidal perovskite nanocrystals to increase Jsc in PeNC solar cells. The RP of PeNC films increases their crystallite size and eliminates long-chain ligands, and thereby overcomes the charge confinement in PeNC films. These changes facilitate exciton dissociation and increase carrier extraction in PeNC solar cells. By use of this method, the gradient-bandgap PeNC solar cells achieve a Jsc = 19.30 mA cm-2 without compromising the photovoltage, and yield a high PCE of 16.46% with negligible hysteresis and good stability. This work provides a new strategy to process PeNC films and pave the way for high performance PeNC optoelectronic devices.

Abstract
Perovskite quantum dot light-emitting diodes (QLEDs) with high color purity and wide color gamut have good application prospects in the next generation of display technology. However, colloidal perovskite quantum dots (PQDs) may introduce a large number of defects during the film-forming process, which is not conducive to the luminous efficiency of the device. Meanwhile, the disordered film formation of PQDs will form interfacial defects and reduce the device performance. Here, we report an interface-induced crystallinity enhancement (IICE) strategy to increase the crystallinity of PQDs at the hole transport layer (HTL)/PQD interface. As a result, both the Br- vacancies in the PQD film and the interfacial defects were well passivated and the leakage current was also suppressed. We achieved QLEDs with a maximum external quantum efficiency (EQE) of 16.45% and current efficiency (CE) of 61.77 cd/A, showing improved performance to more than twice that of the control devices. The IICE strategy paves a new way to enhance the crystallinity of PQD films, so as to improve the performance of QLEDs for application in the future display field.

Abstract
Lead halide perovskite nanocrystals are promising for next-generation high-definition displays, especially in light of their tunable bandgaps, high color purities, and high carrier mobility. Within the past few years, the external quantum efficiency of perovskite nanocrystal-based light-emitting diodes has progressed rapidly, reaching the standard for commercial applications. However, the low operational stability of these perovskite nanocrystal-based light-emitting diodes remains a crucial issue for their industrial development. Recent experimental evidence indicates that the migration of ionic species is the primary factor giving rise to the performance degradation of perovskite nanocrystal-based light-emitting diodes, and ion migration is closely related to the defects on the surface of perovskite nanocrystals and at the grain boundaries of their thin films. In this review, we focus on the central idea of surface reconstruction of perovskite nanocrystals, discuss the influence of surface defects on halide ion migration, and summarize recent advances in resurfacing perovskite nanocrystal strategies toward mitigating halide ion migration to improve the stability of the as-fabricated light-emitting diode devices. From the perspective of perovskite nanocrystal resurfacing, we set out a promising research direction for improving both the spectral and operational stability of perovskite nanocrystal-based light-emitting diodes.

Abstract
Colloidal perovskite nanocrystals (PNCs) display bright luminescence for light-emitting diode (LED) applications; however, they require post-synthesis ligand exchange that may cause surface degradation and defect formation. In situ-formed PNCs achieve improved surface passivation using a straightforward synthetic approach, but their LED performance at the green wavelength is not yet comparable with that of colloidal PNC devices. Here, it is found that the limitations of in situ-formed PNCs stem from uncontrolled formation kinetics: conventional surface ligands confine perovskite nuclei but fail to delay crystal growth. A bifunctional carboxylic-acid-containing ammonium hydrobromide ligand that separates crystal growth from nucleation is introduced, leading to the formation of quantum-confined PNC solids exhibiting a narrow size distribution. Controlled crystallization is further coupled with defect passivation using deprotonated phosphinates, enabling improvements in photoluminescence quantum yield to near unity. Green LEDs are fabricated with a maximum current efficiency of 109 cd A-1 and an average external quantum efficiency of 22.5% across 25 devices, exceeding the performance of their colloidal PNC-based counterparts. A 45.6 h operating half-time is further documented for an unencapsulated device in N2 with an initial brightness of 100 cd m-2 .

Abstract
Semiconducting colloidal quantum dots and their assemblies exhibit superior optical properties owing to the quantum confinement effect. Thus, they are attracting tremendous interest from fundamental research to commercial applications. However, the electrical conducting properties remain detrimental predominantly due to the orientational disorder of quantum dots in the assembly. Here we report high conductivity and the consequent metallic behaviour of semiconducting colloidal quantum dots of lead sulphide. Precise facet orientation control to forming highly-ordered quasi-2-dimensional epitaxially-connected quantum dot superlattices is vital for high conductivity. The intrinsically high mobility over 10 cm2 V-1 s-1 and temperature-independent behaviour proved the high potential of semiconductor quantum dots for electrical conducting properties. Furthermore, the continuously tunable subband filling will enable quantum dot superlattices to be a future platform for emerging physical properties investigations, such as strongly correlated and topological states, as demonstrated in the moiré superlattices of twisted bilayer graphene.

Abstract
Halide perovskite nanocrystals (PNCs) exhibit growing attention in optoelectronics due to their fascinating color purity and improved intrinsic properties. However, structural defects emerging in PNCs progressively hinder the radiative recombination and carrier transfer dynamics, limiting the performance of light-emitting devices. In this work, we explored the introduction of guanidinium (GA+) during the synthesis of high-quality Cs1-xGAxPbI3 PNCs as a promising approach for the fabrication of efficient bright-red light-emitting diodes (R-LEDs). The substitution of Cs by 10 mol % GA allows the preparation of mixed-cation PNCs with PLQY up to 100% and long-term stability for 180 days, stored under air atmosphere and refrigerated condition (4 °C). Here, GA+ cations fill/replace Cs+ positions into the PNCs, compensating intrinsic defect sites and suppressing the nonradiative recombination pathway. LEDs fabricated with this optimum material show an external quantum efficiency (EQE) near to 19%, at an operational voltage of 5 V (50-100 cd/m2) and an operational half-time (t50) increased 67% respect CsPbI3 R-LEDs. Our findings show the possibility to compensate the deficiency through A-site cation addition during the material synthesis, obtaining less defective PNCs for efficient and stable optoelectronic devices.

Abstract
Film uniformity of solution-processed layers is the cornerstone of large-area perovskite light-emitting diodes, which is often determined by the 'coffee-ring effect'. Here we demonstrate a second factor that cannot be ignored is the solid-liquid interface interaction between substrate and precursor and can be optimized to eliminate rings. A perovskite film with rings can be formed when cations dominate the solid-liquid interface interaction; whereas smooth and homogeneous perovskite emitting layers are generated when anions and anion groups dominate the interaction. This is due to the fact that the type of ions anchored to the substrate can determine how the subsequent film grows. This interfacial interaction is adjusted using carbonized polymer dots, who also orient the perovskite crystals and passivate their buried traps, enabling a 225 mm2 large-area perovskite light-emitting diode with a high efficiency of 20.2%.

Abstract
Lead halide perovskite nanocrystals (LHP NCs) are regarded as promising emitters for next-generation ultrahigh-definition displays due to their high color purity and wide color gamut. Recently, the external quantum efficiency (EQE) of LHP NC based light-emitting diodes (PNC LEDs) has been rapidly improved to a level required by practical applications. However, the poor operational stability of the device, caused by halide ion migration at the grain boundary of LHP NC thin films, remains a great challenge. Herein, we report a resurfacing strategy via pseudohalogen ions to mitigate detrimental halide ion migration, aiming to stabilize PNC LEDs. We employ a thiocyanate solution processed post-treatment method to efficiently resurface CsPbBr3 NCs and demonstrate that the thiocyanate ions can effectively inhibit bromide ion migration in LHP NC thin films. Owing to thiocyanate resurfacing, we fabricated LEDs with a high EQE of 17.3%, a maximum brightness of 48000 cd m-2, and an excellent operation half-life time.

Abstract
Although vacuum-deposited metal halide perovskite light-emitting diodes (PeLEDs) have great promise for use in large-area high-color-gamut displays, the efficiency of vacuum-sublimed PeLEDs currently lags that of solution-processed counterparts. In this study, highly efficient vacuum-deposited PeLEDs are prepared through a process of optimizing the stoichiometric ratio of the sublimed precursors under high vacuum and incorporating ultrathin under- and upper-layers for the perovskite emission layer (EML). In contrast to the situation in most vacuum-deposited organic light-emitting devices, the properties of these perovskite EMLs are highly influenced by the presence and nature of the upper- and presublimed materials, thereby allowing us to enhance the performance of the resulting devices. By eliminating Pb° formation and passivating defects in the perovskite EMLs, the PeLEDs achieve an outstanding external quantum efficiency (EQE) of 10.9% when applying a very smooth and flat geometry; it reaches an extraordinarily high value of 21.1% when integrating a light out-coupling structure, breaking through the 10% EQE milestone of vacuum-deposited PeLEDs.

Abstract
Ligands are indispensable for perovskite nanocrystals (NCs) throughout the whole lifetime, as they not only play key roles in the controllable synthesis of NCs with different sizes and shapes, but also act as capping shell that affects optical properties and electrical coupling of NCs. Establishing a systematic understanding of the relationship between ligands and perovskite NCs is significant to enable many potential applications of NCs. This review mainly focuses on the influence of ligands on perovskite NCs. First of all, the ligands-dominated size and shape control of NCs is discussed. Whereafter, the surface defects of NCs and the bonding between ligands and perovskite NCs are classified, and corresponding post-treatment of surface defects via ligands is also summarized. Furthermore, advances in engineering the ligands towards the high performance of optoelectronic devices based on perovskite NCs, including photodetector, solar cell, light emitting diode (LED), and laser, and finally to potential challenges are also discussed.

Abstract
Despite the rapid progress in perovskite light-emitting diodes (PeLEDs), the electroluminescence performance of large-area perovskite devices lags far behind that of laboratory-size ones. Here, we report a 3.5 cm × 3.5 cm large-area PeLED with a record-high external quantum efficiency of 12.1% by creating an amphipathic molecular interface modifier of betaine citrate (BC) between the perovskite layer and the underlying hole transport layer (HTL). It is found that the surface wettability for various HTLs can be efficiently improved as a result of the coexistence of methyl and carboxyl groups in the BC molecules that makes favorable groups to selectively contact with the HTL surface and increases the surface free energy, which greatly facilitates the scalable process of solution-processed perovskite films. Moreover, the luminous performance of perovskite emitters is simultaneously enhanced through the coordination between C═O in the carboxyl groups and Pb dangling bonds.

Abstract
Pure-red perovskite LEDs (PeLEDs) based on CsPb(Br/I)3 nanocrystals (NCs) usually suffer from a compromise in emission efficiency and spectral stability on account of the surface halide vacancies-induced nonradiative recombination loss, halide phase segregation, and self-doping effect. Herein, a "halide-equivalent" anion of benzenesulfonate (BS- ) is introduced into CsPb(Br/I)3 NCs as multifunctional additive to simultaneously address the above challenging issues. Joint experiment-theory characterizations reveal that the BS- can not only passivate the uncoordinated Pb2+ -related defects at the surface of NCs, but also increase the formation energy of halide vacancies. Moreover, because of the strong electron-withdrawing property of sulfonate group, electrons are expected to transfer from the CsPb(Br/I)3 NC to BS- for reducing the self-doping effect and altering the n-type behavior of CsPb(Br/I)3 NCs to near ambipolarity. Eventually, synergistic boost in device performance is achieved for pure-red PeLEDs with CIE coordinates of (0.70, 0.30) and a champion external quantum efficiency of 23.5%, which is one of the best value among the ever-reported red PeLEDs approaching to the Rec. 2020 red primary color. Moreover, the BS- -modified PeLED exhibits negligible wavelength shift under different operating voltages. This strategy paves an efficient way for improving the efficiency and stability of pure-red PeLEDs.

Abstract
Perovskites are in the hotspot of material science and technology. Outstanding properties have been discovered, fundamental mechanisms of defect formation and degradation elucidated, and applications in a wide variety of optoelectronic devices demonstrated. Advances through adjusting the bulk-perovskite composition, as well as the integration of layered and nanostructured perovskites in the devices, allowed improvement in performance and stability. Recently, efforts have been devoted to investigating the effects of quantum confinement in perovskite nanocrystals (PNCs) aiming to fabricate optoelectronic devices based solely on these nanoparticles. In general, the applications are focused on light-emitting diodes, especially because of the high color purity and high fluorescence quantum yield obtained in PNCs. Likewise, they present important characteristics featured for photovoltaic applications, highlighting the possibility of stabilizing photoactive phases that are unstable in their bulk analog, the fine control of the bandgap through size change, low defect density, and compatibility with large-scale deposition techniques. Despite the progress made in the last years towards the improvement in the performance and stability of PNCs-based solar cells, their efficiency is still much lower than that obtained with bulk perovskite, and discussions about upscaling of this technology are scarce. In light of this, we address in this review recent routes towards efficiency improvement and the up-scaling of PNC solar cells, emphasizing synthesis management and strategies for solar cell fabrication.

Abstract
Despite tremendous developments in the luminescene performance of perovskite light-emitting diodes (PeLEDs), the brittle nature of perovskite crystals and their poor crystallinity on flexible substrates inevitably lead to inferior performance. Inspired by pangolins' combination of rigid scales and soft flesh, we propose a bionic structure design for self-healing flexible PeLEDs by employing a polymer-assisted crystal regulation method with a soft elastomer of diphenylmethane diisocyanate polyurethane (MDI-PU). The crystallinity and flexural strain resistance of such perovskite films on plastics with silver-nanowire-based flexible transparent electrodes are highly enhanced. The detrimental cracks induced during repeated deformation can be effectively self-healed under heat treatment via intramolecular/intermolecular hydrogen bonds with MDI-PU. Upon collective optimization of the perovskite films and device architecture, the blue-emitting flexible PeLEDs can achieve a record external quantum efficiency of 13.5% and high resistance to flexural strain, which retain 87.8 and 80.7% of their initial efficiency after repeated bending and twisting operations of 2000 cycles, respectively.

Abstract
As an emerging new class of semiconductor nanomaterials, halide perovskite (ABX3, X = Cl, Br, or I) nanocrystals (NCs) are attracting increasing attention owing to their great potential in optoelectronics and beyond. This field has experienced rapid breakthroughs over the past few years. In this comprehensive review, halide perovskite NCs that are either freestanding or embedded in a matrix (e.g., perovskites, metal-organic frameworks, glass) will be discussed. We will summarize recent progress on the synthesis and post-synthesis methods of halide perovskite NCs. Characterizations of halide perovskite NCs by using a variety of techniques will be present. Tremendous efforts to tailor the optical and electronic properties of halide perovskite NCs in terms of manipulating their size, surface, and component will be highlighted. Physical insights gained on the unique optical and charge-carrier transport properties will be provided. Importantly, the growing potential of halide perovskite NCs for advancing optoelectronic applications and beyond including light-emitting devices (LEDs), solar cells, scintillators and X-ray imaging, lasers, thin-film transistors (TFTs), artificial synapses, and light communication will be extensively discussed, along with prospecting their development in the future.

Abstract
We present a facile synthetic approach for the growth of two-dimensional CsPbBr3 nanoplatelets (NPLs) in the temperature range of 50-80 °C via the vacuum-assisted low-temperature (VALT) method. In this method, we utilized the solubility of the PbBr2 precursor at temperatures high than the reaction temperature, thus making Br available during the reaction to form NPLs with fewer defects. The high chemical availability of Br during the reaction changes the growth dynamics and formation of highly crystalline nanoplatelets. Using this method, we have synthesized NPLs with an emission wavelength range of 450 to 485 nm that have high photoluminescence quantum yields (PLQY) from 80 to 100%. The synthesized NPLs retain their initial PLQY of about 80% after one month at ambient conditions. The formation of NPLs with fewer defects and enhanced radiative recombination was further confirmed by X-ray diffraction (XRD), reduced Urbach energy, time-resolved photocurrent measurements, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), and Fourier-transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy. Additionally, we utilized the synthesized NPLs for the fabrication of down-conversion light emitting diodes (LEDs), and the electroluminescence peak was barely shifted compared to the photoluminescence peak.

Abstract
Metal halide perovskites are attracting a lot of attention as next-generation light-emitting materials owing to their excellent emission properties, with narrow band emission1-4. However, perovskite light-emitting diodes (PeLEDs), irrespective of their material type (polycrystals or nanocrystals), have not realized high luminance, high efficiency and long lifetime simultaneously, as they are influenced by intrinsic limitations related to the trade-off of properties between charge transport and confinement in each type of perovskite material5-8. Here, we report an ultra-bright, efficient and stable PeLED made of core/shell perovskite nanocrystals with a size of approximately 10 nm, obtained using a simple in situ reaction of benzylphosphonic acid (BPA) additive with three-dimensional (3D) polycrystalline perovskite films, without separate synthesis processes. During the reaction, large 3D crystals are split into nanocrystals and the BPA surrounds the nanocrystals, achieving strong carrier confinement. The BPA shell passivates the undercoordinated lead atoms by forming covalent bonds, and thereby greatly reduces the trap density while maintaining good charge-transport properties for the 3D perovskites. We demonstrate simultaneously efficient, bright and stable PeLEDs that have a maximum brightness of approximately 470,000 cd m-2, maximum external quantum efficiency of 28.9% (average = 25.2 ± 1.6% over 40 devices), maximum current efficiency of 151 cd A-1 and half-lifetime of 520 h at 1,000 cd m-2 (estimated half-lifetime >30,000 h at 100 cd m-2). Our work sheds light on the possibility that PeLEDs can be commercialized in the future display industry.
