Abstract

Cesium lead halide (CsPbX3, X = Cl, Br, or I) perovskite quantum dots (PeQDs) show promise for next-generation optoelectronics. In this study, we controlled the electronic coupling between PeQD multilayers using a layer-by-layer method and dithiol linkers of varying structures. The energy shift of the first excitonic peak from monolayer to bilayer decreases exponentially with increasing interlayer spacer distance, indicating the resonant tunnelling effect. X-ray diffraction measurements revealed anisotropic inter-PeQD distances in multiple layers. Photoluminescence (PL) analysis showed lower energy emission in the in-plane direction due to the electronic coupling in the out-of-plane direction, supporting the anisotropic electronic state in the PeQD multilayers. Temperature-dependent PL and PL lifetimes indicated changes in exciton behaviour due to the delocalized electronic state in PeQD multilayers. Particularly, the electron-phonon coupling strength increased, and the exciton recombination rate decreased. This is the first study demonstrating controlled electronic coupling in a three-dimensional ordered structure, emphasizing the importance of the anisotropic electronic state for high-performance PeQDs devices.
