Challenges in Developing Perovskite Nanocrystals for Commercial Applications.

Abstract

Zero-dimensional lead halide perovskite nanocrystals (NCs) exhibit size-dependent bandgap and carrier confinement compared to bulk counterparts due to the quantum confinement effect, making them essential for achieving wide-color-gamut displays, studying excitonic spin relaxation, and constructing superlattices. Despite their promising potential, they face a variety of technical bottlenecks, such as insufficient color reproducibility, limited large-scale production, low stability, and toxicity. An outline of a research roadmap is provided in the review, which highlights key challenges in developing perovskite NCs for commercial applications.
