Abstract
Producing heterostructures of cesium lead halide perovskites and metal-chalcogenides in the form of colloidal nanocrystals can improve their optical features and stability, and also govern the recombination of charge carriers. Herein, the synthesis of red-emitting CsPbI3/ZnSe nanoheterostructures is reported via an insitu hot injection method, which provides the crystallization conditions for both components, subsequently leading to heteroepitaxial growth. Steady-state absorption and photoluminescence studies alongside X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and ultraviolet photoelectron spectroscopy analysis evidence on a type-I band alignment for CsPbI3/ZnSe nanoheterostructures, which exhibit photoluminescence quantum yield of 96% due to the effective passivation of surface defects, and an enhancement in carrier lifetime. Furthermore, the heterostructure growth of ZnSe domains leads to significant improvement in the stability of the CsPbI3 nanocrystals under ambient conditions and against thermal and UV irradiation stress.
