All-inorganic perovskite quantum dots have attracted extensive attention in the scientific research field due to their high fluorescence quantum yield,simple preparation method and wide color gamut.Among them,cubic phase Cs Pb I3 perovskite quantum dots with ultra-narrow band gap(1.8 e V)are widely used in photovoltaic,photoelectric detection,light-emitting diodes and other fields.However,the black phase of Cs Pb I3 is extremely unstable at room temperature and is easily converted to a non-luminous yellow orthonormal phase.This instability greatly limits its application in practice.Therefore,the main content of this paper is to improve the stability of cubic phase Cs Pb I3 by adopting the strategy of B-site ion doping.Doped nanocrystals not only improve their stability,but also significantly improve their luminescence properties.1.Herein,the stability ofα-Cs Pb I3 is significantly improved by incorporating Mn2+dopants into the perovskite lattice.Mn2+:Cs Pb I3 has essentially the same crystal structure as the parentα-Cs Pb I3,and Mn2+doping can promote photoluminescence quantum yield(PLQY)from 55%to 93%.Importantly,Mn2+:Cs Pb I3 can maintain 60%PLQY after exposing in air for 45 days,whereas the undoped Cs Pb I3 completely loses its luminescence in 10 days.Accordingly,the luminance,external quantum efficiency(EQE),and T50 lifetime of Mn2+:Cs Pb I3 perovskite light-emitting diode(Pe LED)reach1066 cd/m2,1.8%,and 2500 s,whereas the values for the undoped counterpart are only415 cd/m2,0.6%,and 140 s,respectively.In addition,it is evidenced that introducing a Li F buffer layer between hole transport layer and perovskite emissive layer can further boost the device performance,particularly,theluminance and T50 lifetime achieve 1394cd/m2 and 225 min at 140 cd/m2.2.Herein,the incorporation of Ni2+ions into Cs Pb I3 lattice was successfully achieved by a modified hot-injection method using nickel acetate as doping precursor.The as-prepared Ni2+(3.3 mol%):Cs Pb I3 nanocrystals exhibited an improved,near-unity(95%~100%)photoluminescence quantum yield owing to the enhanced radiative decay rate and the decreased non-radiative decay rate.Additionally,Ni-doping was demonstrated to stabilize Cs Pb I3 lattice and the Ni2+(3.3 mol%):Cs Pb I3 film and colloidal solution can retain their red luminescence up to 15 days and 7 months in atmosphere,respectively.First principle calculations verified that the significantly improved optical performance and stability of Ni2+:Cs Pb I3nanocrystals arose primarily from the increased formation energy due to the successful doping of Ni2+in Cs Pb I3.Benefiting from such an effective doping strategy,the as-prepared Ni2+-doped Cs Pb I3 perovskite nanocrystals can function well as efficient red-light emitter toward the fabrication of high-performance perovskite LED with a peak external quantum efficiency of~7%. |
