Abstract

AbstractCurrently, lanthanide (Ln3+) doped Pb‐free double perovskites (DPs) suffer from competitive emissions of the self‐trapped exciton (STE) and Ln3+. Herein, a new type of Nd3+‐doped Cs2AgInCl6 DPs with Na+/Bi3+ co‐alloying is developed. Benefiting from Na+/Bi3+‐induced local structural modification, both STE broadband visible luminescence and Nd3+ near‐infrared (NIR) emissions are boosted via free exciton sensitization. Specifically, a total 648‐fold enhancement in emitting intensities compared to the Na+/Bi3+‐free counterpart is realized, with a significantly improved NIR photoluminescence quantum yield (PLQY) from 0.16% to 30.3%. First‐principles density functional theory calculations, Raman spectra, and steady/transient‐state PL spectra verify the modification of local site symmetry, breakdown of parity‐forbidden absorption, and reduction of electron‐phonon coupling via Na+/Bi3+ doping. Finally, a compact vis–NIR broadband light‐emitting diode (LED) is designed by coupling the Na/Bi/Nd: Cs2AgInCl6 DP with a commercial ultraviolet LED chip, which shows promising applications in spectroscopic analyses and multifunctional lighting.
