Abstract
Inorganic CsPbI3 perovskite nanocrystals (NCs) exhibit remarkable optoelectronic properties for illumination. However, their poor stability has hindered the development of light-emitting diodes (LEDs) based on these materials. In this study, we propose a facile method to synthesize Mg2+-doped CsPbI3 NCs with enhanced stability and high photoluminescence (PL) intensity under ambient air conditions. Theoretical calculations confirm that doped NCs possess stronger formation energy compared to undoped NCs. The undoped CsPbI3 NCs emit red light at approximately 653 nm. We optimize the doping ratio to 1/30, which significantly enhances the photoluminescence of single-particle CsPbI3 NCs. Subsequently, we fabricate a red LED by combining the CsPbI3 NCs with a blue chip. The resulting LED, based on the doped CsPbI3 NCs, exhibits excellent performance with a high luminance of 4902.22 cd m-2 and stable color coordinates of (0.7, 0.27). This work not only presents a simple process for synthesizing perovskite NCs but also provides a design strategy for developing novel red LEDs for various applications.

Abstract
A variety of colloidal chemical approaches has been developed in the last few decades for the controlled synthesis of nanostructured materials in either water or organic solvents. Besides the precursors, the solvents, reducing agents, and the choice of surfactants are crucial for tuning the composition, morphology and other properties of the resulting nanoparticles. The ligands employed include thiols, amines, carboxylic acids, phosphines and phosphine oxides. Generally, adding a single ligand to the reaction mixture is not always adequate to yield the desired features. In this review, we discuss in detail the role of the oleic acid/oleylamine ligand pair in the chemical synthesis of nanoparticles. The combined use of these ligands belonging to two different categories of molecules aims to control the size and shape of nanoparticles and prevent their aggregation, not only during their synthesis but also after their dispersion in a carrier solvent. We show how the different binding strengths of these two molecules and their distinct binding modes on specific facets affect the reaction kinetics toward the production of nanostructures with tailored characteristics. Additional functions, such as the reducing function, are also noted, especially for oleylamine. Sometimes, the carboxylic acid will react with the alkylamine to form an acid-base complex, which may serve as a binary capping agent and reductant; however, its reducing capacity may range from lower to much lower than that of oleylamine. The types of nanoparticles synthesized in the simultaneous presence of oleic acid and oleylamine and discussed herein include metal oxides, metal chalcogenides, metals, bimetallic structures, perovskites, upconversion particles and rare earth-based materials. Diverse morphologies, ranging from spherical nanoparticles to anisotropic, core-shell and hetero-structured configurations are presented. Finally, the relation between tuning the resulting surface and volume nanoparticle properties and the relevant applications is highlighted.

Abstract
Colloidal metal-halide perovskite nanocrystals (MHP NCs) are gaining significant attention for a wide range of optoelectronics applications owing to their exciting properties, such as defect tolerance, near-unity photoluminescence quantum yield, and tunable emission across the entire visible wavelength range. Although the optical properties of MHP NCs are easily tunable through their halide composition, they suffer from light-induced halide phase segregation that limits their use in devices. However, MHPs can be synthesized in the form of colloidal nanoplatelets (NPls) with monolayer (ML)-level thickness control, exhibiting strong quantum confinement effects, and thus enabling tunable emission across the entire visible wavelength range by controlling the thickness of bromide or iodide-based lead-halide perovskite NPls. In addition, the NPls exhibit narrow emission peaks, have high exciton binding energies, and a higher fraction of radiative recombination compared to their bulk counterparts, making them ideal candidates for applications in light-emitting diodes (LEDs). This review discusses the state-of-the-art in colloidal MHP NPls: synthetic routes, thickness-controlled synthesis of both organic-inorganic hybrid and all-inorganic MHP NPls, their linear and nonlinear optical properties (including charge-carrier dynamics), and their performance in LEDs. Furthermore, the challenges associated with their thickness-controlled synthesis, environmental and thermal stability, and their application in making efficient LEDs are discussed.

Abstract
Black phase CsPbI3 perovskites have emerged as one of the most promising materials for use in optoelectronic devices due to their remarkable properties. However, black phase CsPbI3 usually possesses poor stability and involves a phase change process, resulting in an undesired orthorhombic (δ) yellow phase. Here, the enhanced stability of CsPbI3 nanocrystals is achieved by incorporating the Cu2+ ion into the CsPbI3 lattice under mild conditions. In particular, the Cu2+-doped CsPbI3 film can maintain red luminescence for 35 days in air while the undoped ones transformed into the nonluminescent yellow phase in several days. Furthermore, first-principles calculations verified that the enhanced stability is ascribed to the increased formation energy due to the successful doping of Cu2+ in CsPbI3. Benefiting from such an effective doping strategy, the as-prepared Cu2+-doped CsPbI3 as an emitting layer shows much better performance compared with that of the undoped counterpart. The turn-on voltage of the Cu2+-doped quantum-dot light-emitting diode (QLED) (1.6 V) is significantly reduced compared with that of the pristine QLED (3.8 V). In addition, the luminance of the Cu2+-doped QLED can reach 1270 cd/m2, which is more than twice that of the pristine CsPbI3 QLED (542 cd/m2). The device performance is believed to be further improved by optimizing the purification process and device structure, shedding light on future applications.
