Abstract
Lead halide perovskites exhibit outstanding optoelectronic and optical properties. However, some applications of perovskites are hindered by their instability in polar environments; thus, how to balance stability with conductivity is a great challenge. Here, we report a new approach of using X-type ligands to address this issue. Surface treatments containing multi-step ligand exchanges and ion filling were necessary to obtain X-type ligand-protected perovskites. Performances of this material show that: (1) the crystal structure of perovskites is stable in ethanol; (2) surface defects can be fixed by a photoactivation process and photoluminescence intensity can be enhanced to 136%; and (3) electronic devices fabricated from such materials show stabilility even after washing with ethanol. X-type ligand-protected perovskites with high stability and good conductivity are promising new materials for wide applications in electronic and optoelectronics devices.
