Abstract

Perovskite quantum dots (QDs) have been considered new-generation emitters for lighting and displays due to their high photoluminescence (PL) efficiency, and pure color. However, their commercialization process is currently hindered by the challenge of mass production in a quick and environmentally friendly manner. In this study, a polymer-surface-mediated mechanochemical reaction (PMR) is proposed to prepare perovskite QDs using a high-speed multifunction grinder for the first time. PMR possesses two distinctive features: i) The ultra-high rotating speed (>15 000rpm) of the grinder facilitates the rapid conversion of the precursor to perovskite; ii) The surface-rich polymer particulate ensures QDs with high dispersity, avoiding QD aggregation-induced PL quenching. Therefore, PMR can successfully manufacture green perovskite QDs with a high PL quantum yield (PLQY) exceeding 90% in a highly material- (100% yield), time- (1kgmin-1), and effort- (solvent-free) efficient manner. Moreover, the PMR demonstrates remarkable versatility, including synthesizing by various polymers and producing diverse colored and Pb-free phosphors. Importantly, these phosphors featuring a combination of polymer and perovskite, are facilely processed into various solid emitters. The proposed rapid, green, and scalable approach has great potential to accelerate the commercialization of perovskite QDs.
