Efficient and Near-Zero Thermal Quenching Cr3+-Doped Garnet-Type Phosphor for High-Performance Near-Infrared Light-Emitting Diode Applications.

In recent years, near-infrared (NIR) phosphors have attracted great research interest due to their unique physical properties and broad application prospects. However, obtaining NIR phosphors with both high quantum efficiency and excellent thermal stability remains a great challenge. In this study, novel NIR Ca3Mg2ZrGe3O12:Cr3+ phosphors were successfully prepared using a high-temperature solid-phase method, and the structure and luminescent properties of the material were systematically investigated. Ca3Mg2ZrGe3O12:0.01Cr3+ emits NIR light in the range of 600 to 900 nm with a peak at 758 nm and a half-height width of 89 nm under the excitation of 457 nm blue light. NIR luminescence shows considerable quantum efficiency, and the internal quantum efficiency of the optimized sample is up to 68.7%. Remarkably, the Ca3Mg2ZrGe3O12:0.01Cr3+ phosphor exhibits a near-zero thermal quenching behavior, and the luminescence intensity of the sample at 250 °C maintains 92% of its intensity at room temperature. The mechanism of high thermal stability has been elucidated by calculating the Huang Kun factor and activation energy. Finally, NIR pc-LED devices prepared from Ca3Mg2ZrGe3O12:0.01Cr3+ phosphor with commercial blue LED chips have good performance, proving that this Ca3Mg2ZrGe3O12:0.01Cr3+ NIR phosphor has potential applications in night vision and biomedical imaging.

High-efficiency RbASiF6:Mn4+ (A = K, Cs) phosphors obtained by one-step green synthesis method

Red-emitting Mn4+-doped fluoride phosphors are recognized as promising materials for high-performance warm white light-emitting diodes (WLEDs). However, the extensive use of toxic hydrofluoric acid in traditional synthesis methods hinders their development and commercialization. Furthermore, the traditional solid-phase method often has cumbersome sintering steps, high temperature, long holding time, and certain safety hazards, so it is very necessary to develop a green synthesis method with simple steps and low energy consumption. In this study, a low-temperature solid-state method is proposed to synthesize RbASiF6:Mn4+ (A = K, Cs) phosphors by one step. Optimal emission intensities were observed at Mn4+ concentrations of 1.2 % in RbKSiF6 and 2.1 % in RbCsSiF6. These phosphors demonstrated high thermal stability. At 423 K, the photoluminescence intensities of RbKSiF6:1.2 %Mn4+ and RbCsSiF6:2.1 %Mn4+ reached 114 % and 87 % of their respective values at room temperature. Meanwhile, the chromaticity shifts were almost negligible, and high color purity was achieved for both phosphors. The electro-optical performance of WLED devices utilizing these phosphors, in combination with YAG:Ce3+ and GaN chips, showed high color rendering indices (CRI) and low correlated color temperatures (CCT) across varying currents. Specifically, under a driving current of 20 mA, the device incorporating RbKSiF6:1.2 %Mn4+ exhibited a CRI of 94 and a CCT of 3732 K, with a luminous efficacy of 61 lm/W. These findings highlight the potential of green-synthesized RASFM phosphors in advancing the application of warm WLEDs.

Bifunctional Ligand Passivation Enables Stable Blue Mixed-Halide CsPb(Br/Cl)3 Perovskite Quantum Dots toward Light-Emitting Diodes.

Mixed-halide CsPb(Br/Cl)3 perovskite quantum dots (PeQDs) have attracted extensive attention in light-emitting diodes (LEDs), but their low photoluminescent efficiency and especially poor stability impede their practical applications. Here, we employ bifunctional didodecyldimethylammonium thiocyanide (DDASCN) with a pseudohalogen SCN- and branched DDA+ to obtain blue-emitting CsPbBr2Cl PeQDs. DDASCN significantly boosts the photoluminescence quantum yield to 92% by inhibiting nonradiative recombination. Importantly, DDASCN PeQDs show excellent stabilities against air, UV light, heat, and polar solvents. These improved performances were explained by density functional theory calculation, which shows that SCN- fills the Cl- vacancy by simultaneously binding with undercoordinated Pb2+ and Cs+, while DDA+ connects undercoordinated Br- and lies parallel to the PeQD core, leading to efficient passivation and a strong binding capacity. Finally, we achieved high-performance white LEDs by integrating our PeQDs, resulting in a color-rendering index of 92.9, a color gamut of 119.61%, and chromaticity coordinates of (0.33, 0.33). This provides an effective method to obtain efficient and stable CsPb(Br/Cl)3 PeQDs for practical applications.

Highly efficient AlGaN-based deep-ultraviolet light-emitting diodes: from bandgap engineering to device craft

AlGaN-based light-emitting diodes (LEDs) operating in the deep-ultraviolet (DUV) spectral range (210–280 nm) have demonstrated potential applications in physical sterilization. However, the poor external quantum efficiency (EQE) hinders further advances in the emission performance of AlGaN-based DUV LEDs. Here, we demonstrate the performance of 270-nm AlGaN-based DUV LEDs beyond the state-of-the-art by exploiting the innovative combination of bandgap engineering and device craft. By adopting tailored multiple quantum wells (MQWs), a reflective Al reflector, a low-optical-loss tunneling junction (TJ) and a dielectric SiO2 insertion structure (IS-SiO2), outstanding light output powers (LOPs) of 140.1 mW are achieved in our DUV LEDs at 850 mA. The EQEs of our DUV LEDs are 4.5 times greater than those of their conventional counterparts. This comprehensive approach overcomes the major difficulties commonly faced in the pursuit of high-performance AlGaN-based DUV LEDs, such as strong quantum-confined Stark effect (QCSE), severe optical absorption in the p-electrode/ohmic contact layer and poor transverse magnetic (TM)-polarized light extraction. Furthermore, the on-wafer electroluminescence characterization validated the scalability of our DUV LEDs to larger production scales. Our work is promising for the development of highly efficient AlGaN-based DUV LEDs.

Enhanced Quantum Efficiency of Near-IR Perovskite Light Emitting Diodes Via Dual Interfacial Modification

Near-infrared (NIR) light-emitting diodes play a crucial role in a wide range of applications, including sensors, night vision displays, security systems, medicine, spectroscopy, and military applications. The potential for high-performance NIR perovskite light-emitting diodes (NIR-PeLEDs) has been highlighted with the impressive advancement of fluorescent perovskite thin films. These PeLEDs exhibit promising features such as a tunable band gap, high color purity, and low non-radiative recombination rates. Despite these advantages, the current state-of-the-art NIR-PeLEDs faces challenges primarily related to poor film quality and increased defect states, leading to limitations in external quantum efficiency (EQE) and operational stability. In addressing these issues, we present a novel dual interfacial modification approach involving the incorporation of fluorinated phenethylammonium iodide (F-PEAI), a bulky organic cation, at both the bottom and top interfaces of perovskite emitting films. The modified interfaces result in perovskite films with a smoother surface morphology, complete coverage, and high crystallinity, leading to a red-shifted fluorescence band extending toward 800 nm. Furthermore, the introduction of F-PEAI facilitates the formation of compact and fine grains in perovskite films, contributing to an enhanced photoluminescence quantum yield (PLQY). Consequently, NIR-PeLEDs modified with F-PEAI demonstrate improved EQE values coupled with enhanced operational stability. The combination of electrical, optical, and physical analyses of both films and devices underscores the effectiveness of the dual interface modification in developing efficient NIR perovskite LEDs suitable for practical applications.

Carbon Quantum Dots with Highly Efficient Bandgap Emission for Electroluminescent Light-Emitting Diodes

Carbon quantum dots (CQDs) feature bright and tunable photoluminescence, solution processability, and low toxicity, showing great potential in optoelectronics. The multicolor fluorescent CQDs were first fabricated as active layers in our lab, and then the high-performance electroluminescent warm white light-emitting diodes (LEDs) were obtained with the synthesized bright red CQDs. More significantly, through designing the triangular structure of the carbon core, fluorescent CQDs first achieved the narrow-bandwidth (∼30 nm) electroluminescent LEDs with appreciable stability, high color purity, and high luminescence performance. These results lay the foundation for the development of next-generation high performance displays based on CQDs. Here, we will report the large-scale synthesis of CQDs with near-unity photoluminescence quantum yield and the synthesis of red (625 nm) phosphorescent carbon quantum dot organic frameworks (CDOFs) with a quantum yield of up to 42.3% and realization of high-efficiency red phosphorescent electroluminescent LEDs. The LEDs based on the CDOFs exhibited a red emission with a maximum luminance of 1818 cd m−2 and an EQE of 5.6%. This work explores the possibility of a new perspective for developing high-performance CQD-based electroluminescent LEDs.References Yuxin Shi, Louzhen Fan, et al., Red Phosphorescent Carbon Quantum Dot Organic Framework-Based Electroluminescent Light-Emitting Diodes Exceeding 5% External Quantum Efficiency, Am.

Optimization and luminescence studies of Sm3+ doped LiCaBO3 phosphors for high-performance white light-emitting diodes

An undoped and a series of orange-red emitting LiCaBO3:Sm3+ (x = 0.5–3 mol%) phosphors have been synthesized using a highly reliable and cost-effective combustion method. The synthesized phosphors were characterized using X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), photoluminescence spectroscopy (PL), and Diffuse Reflectance spectroscopy (DRS). The structural studies of the LiCaBO3:Sm3+phosphor confirm the single-phase orthorhombic structure with space group Pbca and the presence of borate anionic groups. Upon near-UV excitation at 405 nm, the PL emission spectra show four emission peaks centered at 564 nm, 602 nm, 650 nm, and 708 nm corresponding to the 4G5/2 → 6H5/2, 4G5/2 → 6H7/2, 4G5/2 → 6H9/2 and 4G5/2 → 6H11/2 transitions respectively resulting in the emission of orange-red light. The optimum dopant concentration of Sm3+ion was 1 mol% and the main mechanism of concentration quenching was calculated using Dexter's theory. The bandgap of the undoped phosphor was found to be 5.31 eV. The CIE chromaticity coordinates are (0.56, 0.40) which confirms the orange-red emission. The obtained results indicate that the synthesized phosphor can be a potential candidate for application in solid-state lighting devices.

High-performance sky-blue quasi-2D perovskite light-emitting diodes via synergistic defect passivation and phase narrowing strategies

Quasi-2D perovskite light-emitting diodes (PeLEDs) are considered as one of the most promising candidates for next-generation displays. Yet, the unstable electroluminescent spectra and inferior performance of blue PeLEDs hinder their commercial use. Herein, we demonstrate highly efficient quasi-2D pure bromide (QPB) sky-blue PeLEDs based on an oxygen-rich triethyl 2-acetylcitrate (TEAC) additive. The TEAC additive contains four C = O functional groups, offering several coordination sites to simultaneously passivate multiple bromine vacancy defects. Furthermore, it inhibits the growth of large n (n ≥ 5) phases to achieve narrow phases distribution. As a result, the TEAC-modified PeLEDs show sky-blue emission at 494 nm, with maximum current efficiency and external quantum efficiency up to 29.1 cd/A and 18.5 %, respectively. Moreover, the T50 lifetime of TEAC-modified PeLED is about 25 times higher than that of pristine PeLEDs. Our results provide a reliable approach to realizing high-efficiency blue quasi-2D PeLEDs.

Enhancing the performance of InGaN-based near-infrared light-emitting diodes under a weakly polarized electric field

This work presents a simulation analysis of nitride multi-quantum-well near-infrared light-emitting diodes (LEDs) with an emission wavelength of 1300 nm using Crosslight-APSYS software. The polarization electric field at the quantum wells was effectively tuned by adopting an Al0.02Ga0.19In0.79N quaternaries compound as the barrier for the In0.78GaN quantum wells, resulting in a near-zero polarization electric field. This approach significantly reduced band bending and increased the overlap of electron-hole wave functions within the quantum wells. Consequently, the internal quantum efficiency (IQE) in the nitride near-infrared LED improved, and the droop effect was significantly reduced. The Auger recombination mechanism that influences the droop effect was further analyzed. This provides an efficient approach for the development of high-performance InGaN-based near-infrared light-emitting diodes with high indium content.

High Stability and Corrosion-Resistant Gas of Recyclable and Versatile Manganese-Doped Lead-Free Double Perovskite Crystals toward Novel Functional Fabric and Photoelectric Device.

Lead-free halide perovskites possess excellent photoelectric properties, making them widely used in the photoelectric fields. Herein, lead-free double perovskite crystals (PCs) doped with manganese (Cs2NaInCl6:Mn2+) are successfully prepared by the more energy-efficient crystallization method. The crystals emit bright orange-red light under the ultraviolet (UV) lamp, showing unique optical properties. They have the highest photoluminescence quantum yield of 42.91%. The white light-emitting diodes (LEDs) are fabricated using these perovskite crystals, which show a color rendering index of 92 and external quantum efficiency (EQE) as high as 16.3%. Furtherly, perovskite-modified fiber paper made of aramid chopped fibers (ACFs) and polyphenylene sulfide (PPS) exhibited fluorescent properties under different conditions. This paper combines fiber composite technology with PPS fiber filter bags, which are widely used in environmental protection, for the first time and demonstrates functional fiber filter bags with fluorescent characteristics. This filter bag provides an idea for the automatic detection of industrial filtration. Meanwhile, after being exposed to industrial waste gas for 60h, the filter bag can maintain superior fluorescence performance. In this study, lead-free double perovskites are synthesized using an efficient method for preparing high-performance LEDs and high-stability fluorescent fibers. Concurrently, the application of perovskites in environmental protection is expanded.

Drag force shear manipulating ligand distribution at perovskite buried interface enables efficiently suppressed EQE roll-off of perovskite light-emitting diodes

Effectively manipulating the ligand distribution at the perovskite buried interface is critical for achieving high-performance nanocrystal-based perovskite light-emitting diodes (PeLEDs). However, it is challenging to realize it due to the non-exposed feature of the buried interface. Here, the drag force shear (DFS) is utilized to successfully regulate the ligand distribution at the perovskite buried interface which can effectively suppress the EQE roll-off of devices. By manipulating the ligand distribution at the perovskite buried interface, it is revealed that a more ligand preservation could result in an improved defect passivation leading to higher EQE, while the carrier injection barrier is increased simultaneously making devices suffer from severe EQE roll-off and decreased luminance, and vice versa. With the help of optimizing the ligand distribution by manipulating the DFS, the balance between carrier injection and interfacial defect passivation is successfully achieved. Resultantly, an enhanced EQE of 17.24 % with substantially suppressed EQE roll-off is reached, culminating in a remarkable luminance of 61,900 cd/m2. This work presents an efficient approach to control ligand distribution at the perovskite buried interface and offers valuable insights for realizing high luminance and low EQE roll-off of PeLEDs.

Efficient Perovskite Nanograin Light-Emitting Diodes in Green-to-Blue Gamut with Co-Additive Engineering.

Perovskite nanograins exceeding the Bohr exciton diameter show great potential for high-performance light-emitting diodes (LEDs) owing to their bandgap homogeneity, spatial charge confinement, and nonlocal interaction. However, it is challenging to directly synthesize proper nanograins along with reduced crystal defects on functional substrate, and the corresponding high-efficiency perovskite LEDs (PeLEDs) have rarely been reported. In this study, crystallization modulation for perovskites with an effective co-additive system, including lithium bromide, p-fluorophenethylammonium bromide, and 18-crown-6, is performed. Furthermore, it is demonstrated that the proposed co-additive system can synergistically retard perovskite crystallization and reduce crystal defects. Consequently, high-quality perovskite nanograin solids (≈22.8nm) are obtained with a high photoluminescence quantum yield (≈88%). These superior optical properties contribute to developing efficient green PeLEDs with a champion external quantum efficiency (EQE) of 28.4% and an average EQE of 27.1%. The co-additive system can be universally applied to mixed-halide perovskite nanograin LED, presenting a maximum EQE of 24.4%, 21.6%, 17.5%, and 11.1% for the blue device at 496, 488, 478, and 472nm, respectively, along with a narrow spectral linewidth (17-14nm) and stable color. These results supplement the research on high-efficiency perovskite nanograin LEDs for multicolor displays and lighting.

Well-type thick-shell quantum dots combined with double hole transport layers device structure assisted realization of high-performance quantum dot light-emitting diodes

Quantum dot (QD) light-emitting diodes (QLEDs) are promising for next-generation lighting and displays. Considering the optimization design of both the QD and device structure is expected to improve the QLED's performance significantly but has rarely been reported. Here, we use the thick-shell QDs combined with a dual-hole transport layer device structure to construct a high-efficiency QLED. The optimized thick-shell QDs with CdS/CdSe/CdS/ZnS seed/spherical quantum well/shell/shell geometry exhibit a high photoluminescence quantum yield of 96% at a shell thickness of 5.9 nm. The intermediate emissive CdSe layer with coherent strain ensures defect-free growth of the thick CdS and ZnS outer shells. Based on the orthogonal solvents assisted Poly-TPD&PVK dual-hole transport layer device architecture, the champion QLED achieved a maximum external quantum efficiency of 22.5% and a maximum luminance of 259955 cd m-2, which are 1.6 and 3.7 times that of thin-shell QDs based devices with single hole transport layer, respectively. Our study provides a feasible idea for further improving the performance of QLED devices.

Embedding Te4+ into Sn4+-Based Metal Halide To Passivate Structure Defects for High-Performance Light-Emitting Application.

Low-dimensional lead-halide hybrids are an emerging class of optical functional material but suffer the problems of toxicity and poor air stability. Among lead-free metal halides, tin(IV)-based metal halides are promising optoelectronic materials due to their robust structure and environmental friendliness. However, their photoluminescence (PL) properties are poor, and the underlying mechanisms are still elusive. Herein, a stable Sn4+-based halide hybrid, (C4H7N2)2SnCl6, was developed, which however exhibits poor PL properties at room temperature (RT) due to the lattice defects and the robust crystal structure. To enhance its PL efficiency, the Te4+ ion with a stereoactive 5s2 lone pair has been introduced into the lattice. As a result, Te4+-doped (C4H7N2)2SnCl6 displays broadband orange emission (∼640 nm) with a PL efficiency of ∼46% at RT. Interestingly, Te4+-doped (C4H7N2)2SnCl6 shows triple emission bands at 80 K, which could be due to the synergistic effect of the organic cations and the self-trapped state induced by Te4+. Additionally, high-performance white light-emitting diodes were prepared using Te4+-doped (C4H7N2)2SnCl6, revealing the potential of this material for lighting applications. This study provides new insight into the PL mechanism of Sn4+-based metal-halide hybrids and thus facilitates the design and development of eco-friendly light-emitting metal halides.

Layer-controllable synthesis, lattice structural Determination, and fluorescence lifetime imaging of (HA)2(MA)n-1PbnI3n+1 Quasi-2D organic-inorganic perovskite microsheets

Hybrid quasi-two-dimensional (quasi-2D) perovskites have attracted great interest due to their excellent photovoltaic and light-emitting properties, which enable the rapid development of high-performance perovskite-based solar cells, light-emitting diodes, and lasers. Although many efforts have been made to improve the quality and stability of organic-inorganic perovskites, the controlled synthesis of high-quality layered perovskites remains challenging. Here, single-crystalline quasi-2D (HA)2(MA)n-1PbnI3n+1 perovskites with layer numbers of n from 1 to 3 have been synthesized in a controllable manner, exhibiting stable lattice structures and tunable optical emission. Structurally, hexylamine (HA) with longer alkyl chains was used as an organic spacer in Ruddlesden-Popper (RP) phase perovskites to improve the chemical stability of perovskites. Various ratios of precursor materials were adopted for separating pure and large-scale quasi-2D (HA)2(MA)n-1PbnI3n+1 perovskites, in which different layer-number perovskites with tunable band gaps were obtained with the modulated fluorescence lifetimes. Our lattice structural and fluorescence-lifetime characterizations of RP-phase perovskites provide critical information on the emerging quasi-2D perovskite-crystal systems and their fluorescence relaxation dynamics. The employed strategy to synthesize high-quality perovskites (HA)2(MA)n-1PbnI3n+1 is technically essential to develop the rising perovskite-based photovoltaic and light-emitting applications.

Spray pyrolysis–deposited NiO film as a hole-injection layer for CsPbBr3 nanocrystal-based light-emitting diodes

In perovskite-based light-emitting diodes (LEDs), employing an inorganic material for the hole-injection layer instead of an organic material is crucial for attaining optimal performance and device stability. This layer needs to exhibit [Formula: see text] -type conductivity with high carrier mobility while being fabricated with a simple and industrially compatible method. In this study, uniform and thin [Formula: see text] -type NiO films were deposited through spray pyrolysis in an air atmosphere. The as-deposited film showed poor crystallinity, and high resistance reduced hole-injection performance. Subsequent thermal treatment at 500∘C enhanced the crystallinity of the layer, reducing resistance and improving LED performance. The film exhibited [Formula: see text] -type semiconductor characteristics, and its carrier mobility, carrier concentration and resistivity were 53.0 × [Formula: see text]cm3, 116cm2⋅ [Formula: see text] and 0.98[Formula: see text] ⋅ [Formula: see text], respectively. Moreover, a compact [Formula: see text] nanocrystal (NC) film as an emitting layer was deposited with a centrifugal coating technique. The resulting LED component featuring a fluoride-doped tin oxide (FTO)/NiO/[Formula: see text] NCs/tris-(1-phenyl-1H-benzimidazole)/LiF/Au structure and demonstrating high luminance, current efficiency and external quantum efficiency (EQE) reached 12,000 cd⋅[Formula: see text], 8.8 cd ⋅ [Formula: see text] and 3.56%, respectively, at 5.5 V. Our work offers a simple and unique approach for accelerating the development of advanced interfacial materials and circumventing major interfacial problems in solution-processed perovskite NC films for high-performance LEDs.

Direct Evidence of the Effect of Water Molecules Position in the Spectroscopy, Dynamics, and Lighting Performance of an Eco-Friendly Mn-Based Organic-Inorganic Metal Halide Material for High-Performance LEDs and Solvent Vapor Sensing.

Luminescent Mn(II)-based organic-inorganic hybrid halides have drawn attention as potential materials for sensing and photonics applications. Here, the synthesis and characterization of methylammonium (MA) manganese bromide ((MA)nBrxMn(H2O)2, (n = 1, 4 and x = 3, 6)) with different stoichiometries of the organic cation and inorganic counterpart, are reported. While the Mn2+ centers have an octahedral conformation, the two coordinating water molecules are found either in cis (1) or in trans (2) positions. The photophysical behavior of 1 reflects the luminescence of Mn2+ in an octahedral environment. Although Mn2+ in 2 also has octahedral coordination, at room temperature dual emission bands at ≈530 and ≈660nm are observed, explained in terms of emission from Mn2+in tetragonally compressed octahedra and self-trapped excitons (STEs), respectively. Above the room temperature, 2 shows quasi-tetrahedral behavior with intense green emission, while at temperatures below 140K, another STE band emerges at 570nm. Time-resolved experiments (77-360K) provide a clear picture of the excited dynamics. 2 shows rising components due to STEs formation equilibrated at room temperature with their precursors. Finally, the potential of these materials for the fabrication of color-tunable down-converted light-emitting diode (LED) and for detecting polar solvent vapors is shown.

Energy Transfer-Dominated Quasi-2D Blue Perovskite Light-Emitting Diodes.

The bromide-chloride mixed quasi-two-dimensional (2D) perovskite, with a natural quantum well structure and tunable exciton binding energy, has gained significant attention for high-performance blue perovskite light-emitting diodes (PeLEDs). However, the relative importance of having a low trap state density or efficient exciton transfer for high-efficiency electroluminescence (EL) performance remains elusive. Here, two molecules with the benzoic acid group, sodium 4-fluorobenzoate (SFB) and 3,5-dibromobenzoic acid (DBA), are used to modulate the phase distribution and trap state to explore the effect between energy transfer and defect passivation. As a result, when the n = 1 phase is inhibited in both films, the DBA@SFB-modified perovskite films achieve a higher photoluminescence quantum yield (PLQY) than the SFB-modified perovskite films due to effective defect passivation. However, DBA@SFB-modified PeLEDs exhibit lower external quantum efficiency (EQE) compared to SFB-modified PeLEDs due to the poor exciton transfer between the low-dimensional phase. This demonstrates that passivation strategies may enhance photoluminescence through reducing nonradiative recombination, but the effect of phase distribution is pivotal for EL performance by efficient energy transfer in quasi-2D perovskites. Femtosecond time-resolved transient absorption measurements confirm the fastest carrier dynamics in SFB-modified perovskite films, further corroborating the above result. This work provides useful information about phase modulation and defect passivation for high-efficiency blue quasi-2D PeLEDs.
