Abstract

Metal halide perovskite nanocrystals (NCs) as a new kind of promising optoelectronic material have attracted wide attention due to their high photoluminescence (PL) quantum yield, narrow emission linewidth and wideband color tunability. Since the PL intensity always has a direct influence on the performance of optoelectronic devices, it is of vital importance to improve the perovskite NCs’ fluorescence emission efficiency. Here, we synthesize three inorganic perovskite NCs and experimentally demonstrate a broadband fluorescence enhancement of perovskite NCs by exploiting plasmonic nanostructured surface consisting of nanogrooves array. The strong near-field optical localization associated with surface plasmon polariton-coupled emission effect generated by the nanogrooves array can significantly boost the absorption of perovskite NCs and tailor the fluorescence emissions. As a result, the PL intensities of perovskite NCs are broadband enhanced with a maximum factor higher than 8-fold achieved in experimental demonstration. Moreover, the high efficiency PL of perovskite NCs embedded in the polymer matrix layer on the top of plasmonic nanostructured surface can be maintained for more than three weeks. These results imply that plasmonic nanostructured surface is a good candidate to stably broadband enhance the PL intensity of perovskite NCs and further promote their potentials in the application of visible-light-emitting devices.

Highlights

  • Colloidal metal halide perovskite nanocrystals (NCs) have recently attracted significant attention due to their outstanding optoelectronic characteristics

  • A scanning electron microscope (SEM) image of the fabricated Al nanogrooves array before spin-coating the NCs/PMMA solution is shown in Fig. 1c with P = 300 nm and W = 150 nm

  • Since surface plasmon polaritons (SPPs) only can be excited with transverse magnetic (TM) polarized light[15], only TM polarized incidence is considered in this work

Summary

Introduction

Colloidal metal halide perovskite nanocrystals (NCs) have recently attracted significant attention due to their outstanding optoelectronic characteristics. Compared with the traditional cadmium chalcogenide quantum dots, these CsPbX3 NCs have many unique advantages in PL properties, such as large tolerance to size and size distribution, low sensitivity to the surface dangling bonds, and easy color tuning over the entire visible spectral region via the ratios of mixed halide[2,3]. All these features make CsPbX3 NCs amazing emitting materials in the applications in LEDs4,5, lasing[6,7,8], and photodetectors[9,10]. With a careful design, plasmonic nanostructures can be used to strongly enhance the fluorescence efficiency of perovskite NCs and promote their potentials in application of visible-light-emitting devices
