Abstract

Directing energy flow in light harvesting assemblies of nanocrystal-chromophore hybrid systems requires a better understanding of factors that dictate excited-state processes. In this study, we explore excited-state interactions within the CsPbI3-cyanine dye (IR125) hybrid assembly through a comprehensive set of steady-state and time-resolved absorption and photoluminescence (PL) experiments. Our photoluminescence investigations reveal the quenching of CsPbI3 emission alongside the simultaneous enhancement of IR125 fluorescence, providing evidence for a singlet energy transfer. The evaluation of both photoluminescence (PL) quenching and PL decay measurements yield ∼94% energy transfer efficiency for the CsPbI3-IR125 hybrid assembly. Transient absorption spectroscopy further unveils that this singlet energy transfer process operates on an ultrafast time scale, occurring within 400 ps with a rate constant of energy transfer of 1.4 × 1010 s-1. Our findings highlight the potential of the CsPbI3-IR125 hybrid assembly to extend the emission of halide perovskites into the infrared region, paving the way for light energy harvesting and display applications.
