Abstract
Although tremendous advancement regarding the highly stable metal halide perovskite nanocrystals (PNCs) has been achieved, previous studies were primarily focused on green light-emitting PNCs (i.e., bromine-based PNCs). The stability of chlorine-based PNCs with a violet or blue emission property was still lagging behind that of their bromine-based counterparts. Herein, a nondemanding and versatile strategy for in situ encapsulating all-inorganic chlorine-based PNCs with multifold exceptionally high stabilities was presented. Well-ordered mesoporous silica enabled the confined growth of PNCs in its pores followed by the porosity sealing by tetramethyl orthosilicate hydrolysis, thereby rendering full encapsulation of chlorine-based PNCs in dense silica that originated from high-temperature calcination. This judiciously designed structure imparted enclosed violet/blue emitting PNCs impart with outstanding long-term stability (>1.5 year) with high photoluminescence quantum yield (i.e., 30.4%) in pure water as the result of complete isolation of PNCs from detrimental stimuli, eventually leading to the application in the white light-emitting diode device.
