Synergistic Passivation Inducing Long‐Term Stability for Fluorescent CsPbI3 Perovskite Nanocrystals

Abstract

AbstractCesium lead halide perovskite nanocrystals (PNCs) are promising candidates for photoelectric applications due to their remarkable optoelectronic properties. However, the poor stability of PNCs, especially oleic acid (OA)/oleylamine (OAm)‐capped CsPbI3, is the main obstacle to their commercialization. In this study, CsPbI3 PNCs with long‐term stability are prepared through synergistic passivation of n‐octylphosphonic acid (OPA) and (3‐aminopropyl) triethoxysilane (APS). OPA provides a stronger binding affinity to passivate surface defects, while the SiO2 layer formed by APS can further reduce ligand detachment and block the access of external factors to the PNCs. The stability of OPA/APS‐capped CsPbI3 PNCs can be synergistically enhanced in comparison with that of OA/OAm‐capped PNCs, the fluorescence of which can be also increased significantly. Employing the high‐performance OPA/APS‐capped CsPbI3 PNCs as color‐converting materials, a white light‐emitting diode with a color coordinate of (0.33 and 0.32) and a wide color gamut of 126% National Television Standard Committee color space is fabricated.
