Investigation of the Influence of Structure, Stoichiometry, and Synthesis Temperature on the Optical Properties of CdTe Nanoplatelets

Colloidal cadmium telluride (CdTe) nanoplatelets (NPLs) are promising materials for optoelectronic applications, such as photovoltaics and light-emitting diodes, due to their unique optical and electronic properties. However, controlling their growth, thickness, and stoichiometry remains challenging. This study explores the effect of synthesis temperature on the structural, optical, and stoichiometric properties of CdTe NPLs. CdTe NPLs were synthesized at temperatures of 170 °C, 180 °C, 190 °C, and 200 °C using colloidal methods. The resulting NPLs were characterized by UV–Vis absorption spectroscopy, photoluminescence (PL) spectroscopy, transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and total reflection X-ray fluorescence (TXRF) to assess their morphology, structure, and elemental composition. The results showed that the synthesis temperature significantly affected the NPL’s morphology and stoichiometry. Optimal stoichiometry was achieved at 180 °C and 190 °C, with the crystal structure transitioning from zinc blende at lower temperatures to wurtzite at higher temperatures. Optical properties, including luminescence intensity and emission peaks, also varied with temperature. The synthesis temperature is an important parameter in controlling the structural and optical properties of CdTe NPLs. The optimal conditions for obtaining NPLs with the best characteristics were identified at 190 °C, presenting important findings for further optimization of CdTe NPL synthesis for optoelectronic applications.

Solution Processed Bilayer Metal Halide White Light Emitting Diodes.

Metal halide perovskites and perovskite-related organic metal halide hybrids (OMHHs) have recently emerged as a new class of luminescent materials for light emitting diodes (LEDs), owing to their unique and remarkable properties, including near-unity photoluminescence quantum efficiencies, highly tunable emission colors, and low temperature solution processing. While substantial progress has been made in developing monochromatic LEDs with electroluminescence across blue, green, red, and near-infrared regions, achieving highly efficient and stable white electroluminescence from a single LED remains a challenging and under-explored area. Here, a facile approach to generating white electroluminescence is reported by combining narrow sky-blue emission from metal halide perovskites and broadband orange/red emission from zero-dimensional (0D) OMHHs. For the proof of concept, utilizing TPPcarz+ passivated two-dimensional (2D) CsPbBr3 nanoplatelets (NPLs) as sky blue emitter and 0D TPPcarzSbBr4 as orange/red emitter (TPPcarz+ = triphenyl (9-phenyl-9H-carbazol-3-yl) phosphonium), white LEDs (WLEDs) with a solution processed bilayer structure have been fabricated to exhibit a peak external quantum efficiency (EQE) of 4.8% and luminance of 1507 cd m-2 at the Commission Internationale de L'Eclairage (CIE) coordinate of (0.32, 0.35). This work opens a new pathway for creating highly efficient and stable WLEDs using metal halide perovskites and related materials.

Self-Assembly of Chiral Ligands on 2D Semiconductor Nanoplatelets for High Circular Dichroism.

Group II-VI semiconductor nanoplatelets (NPLs) with atomically defined thicknesses and extended atomically flat (001) facets are used for ligand binding and chiro-optical effects. In this study, we demonstrate that tartrate ligands, anchored by two carboxylate groups, chelate the (001) facets of NPLs at an average ratio of one tartrate molecule to two cadmium (Cd) surface atoms. This assembly of chiral molecules on inorganic nanocrystals generates a circular dichroism g-factor as high as 1.3 × 10-2 at the first excitonic transition wavelength of NPLs. Tartrate ligands induce an orthorhombic distortion of the initially "cubic" crystal structure, classifying the NPLs within the 222-point group. Unlike spherical nanocrystals, where it is difficult to discern whether chiral ligands affect only the surface atoms or the entire crystal structure, our findings unequivocally show that the crystal structure of NPLs is modified due to their thinness and atomically precise thickness. The in-plane lattice parameters experience compressive and tensile stresses, significantly splitting the heavy-hole and light-hole bands. Additionally, tartrate ligands adopt different conformations on the NPL surface over time, resulting in dynamic changes in the circular dichroism signal, including an inversion of its sign.

Deciphering Surface Ligand Density of Colloidal Semiconductor Nanocrystals: Shape Matters.

Surface chemistry of colloidal semiconductor nanocrystals (NCs) is of paramount importance because it profoundly impacts their physical and chemical properties, processing, and performance. Herein, we report the effect of the shape of ZnS NCs in terms of nanodots, nanorods, and nanoplatelets (NPL) on the surface ligand density (LD) of the commonly used oleylamine (OLA) ligand by combining three experimental quantification techniques (e.g., thermogravimetric analysis-differential scanning calorimetry, 1H nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy, and inductively coupled plasma-optical emission spectrometry) with the semiempirical molecular dynamics (MD) simulations. Consistent results on the surface LD derived by the aforementioned three independent techniques were obtained, presenting an ascending order of LDdots < LDrods < LDNPLs. MD simulations reveal that the highest LD for ZnS NPLs can be attributed to their extremely flat and uniform surfaces with regular distribution of surface Zn atoms for the OLA molecules to achieve parallel and tight stacking, while for ZnS nanodots and nanorods, their surfaces may have staggered arrangement and multisteps, making it unlikely for the OLA ligand to adopt the tight ligand stacking mode. The finding revealed in this work not only sheds light on the constitution of the molecule ligand shell of NCs, which is helpful for their rational morphology control, but also provides an additional and important knob for tuning their chemical functionality.

A novel water‐based mechanochemical approach for surface modification of graphene platelets and their epoxy nanocomposites

AbstractGraphene (nano) platelets (GPs) are cost‐effective and possess high structural integrity, but their limited surface functional groups hinder their compatibility with polymers. In this study, an eco‐friendly, water‐based mechanochemical approach was developed to modify GPs with polyacrylamide (PAM), creating PAM graphene platelets (PAM‐GPs) with a grafting ratio of approximately 15%. The platelet was measured to be a few nanometers in thickness, and the grafted PAM provides abundant functional groups, including amide groups, which enhance compatibility with polymers. A typical polymer, bisphenol‐A epoxy, was compounded with PAM‐GPs, resulting in a high degree of exfoliation and dispersion of PAM‐GPs within the matrix. The resulting epoxy/PAM‐GP composites exhibited significantly improved mechanical properties, including an 18% increase in Young's modulus and a substantial enhancement in fracture toughness, with a 71% increase at a low filler fraction of 0.5 wt%. These improvements are attributed to the effective interfacial interaction between the PAM‐GPs and the epoxy matrix, facilitated by the grafted functional groups. This study highlights the potential of PAM‐GPs as toughening fillers for epoxy composites, emphasizing their applicability in enhancing the durability and performance of structural components in industrial applications.Highlights Polyacrylamide (PAM)‐modified graphene platelets by a water‐based approach. A strong interface promoted exfoliation and dispersion of platelets. PAM‐modified platelets improved epoxy modulus and toughness. Fractographic analysis unveils toughening mechanisms.

The Deepest Blue: Major Advances and Challenges in Deep Blue Emitting Quasi-2D and Nanocrystalline Perovskite LEDs.

In this review, the recent development of blue perovskite light-emitting diodes (PeLED) are summarized. On deep-blue (≤465nm) perovskite nanomaterials of different structural forms are mainly focused, including nanocrystals (NCs), quantum dots (QDs), nanoplatelets (NPLs), quasi-2D thin film, 3D bulk thin film, as well as lead-free perovskite nanomaterials. The current challenges are also examined in producing efficient deep-blue PeLED, such as material and spectral instability, imbalance charge transport, Joule heat impact, and poor optoelectronic performance. Several strategies are further discussed to overcome these challenges and achieve efficient deep-blue PeLED for next-generation display technology.

Atomic-Level Structure of the Organic-Inorganic Interface of Colloidal ZnO Nanoplatelets from Dynamic Nuclear Polarization-Enhanced NMR.

Colloidal semiconductor nanoplatelets (NPLs) have emerged as a new class of nanomaterials that can exhibit substantially distinct optical properties compared to those of isotropic quantum dots, which makes them prime candidates for new-generation optoelectronic devices. Insights into the structure and anisotropic growth of NPLs can offer a blueprint for their controlled fabrication. Here, we present an atomic-level investigation of the organic-inorganic interface structure in ultrathin and stable benzamidine (bza)-supported ZnO NPLs prepared by the modified one-pot self-supporting organometallic approach. High-resolution transmission electron microscopy analysis showed a well-faceted hexagonal shape of ZnO NPLs with lateral surfaces terminated by nonpolar (101̅0) facets. The basal surfaces are flat and well-formed on one side and corrugated on the other side, which indicates that the layer-by-layer growth in the thickness of the NPLs likely occurs only in one direction via the expansion of 2D islands on the surface. The ligand coordination modes were elucidated using state-of-the-art dynamic nuclear polarization (DNP)-enhanced solid-state NMR spectroscopy supported by density functional theory chemical shift calculations. Specifically, it was found that (101̅0) nonpolar facets are stabilized by neutral L-type bza-H ligands with hydrogen bond-supported η1-coordination mode, while polar (0001) and (0001̅) facets are covered by μ2-coordinated X-type anionic bza ligands with different conformations of aromatic rings. Moreover, the ligand packing on (101̅0) lateral facets was determined using 13C natural abundance (∼1.1%) homonuclear dipolar correlation experiments. Overall, an in-depth understanding of the growth mechanism and the unique bimodal X-type/L-type ligand coordination shell of ZnO NPLs is provided, which will facilitate further design of anisotropic nano-objects.

Bright Structural-Phase-Pure CsPbI3 Core-PbSO4 Shell Nanoplatelets With Ultra-Narrow Emission Bandwidth of 77 meV at 630 nm.

Achieving a narrow emission bandwidth islong pursued for display applications. Among all primary colors, obtaining pure red emission with high visual perception is the most challenging. In this work, CsPbI3 halide perovskite nanoplatelets (NPLs) with rigorously controlled 2D [PbI6]4- octahedron layer number (n) are demonstrated. A perovskite core-PbSO4 shell structure is designed to prevent aggregation and fusion between NPLs, enabling consistent thickness and quantum confinement strength for each NPL. Consequently, exact n = 4 CsPbI3NPLs are demonstrated, exhibiting emission peaks around 630nm, with very narrow spectral bandwidths of <24nm and high absolute photoluminescence quantum yields up to 85%. The emission of n = 4 NPLs falls exactly within the pure-red region, closely aligning with the International Telecommunication Union Recommendation BT.2020 standard. Measurements suggest predominant stability and color homogeneity compared to traditional red-emitting CsPbIxBr3- x nanocrystals. Finally, proof-of-concept pure-red emissive light-emitting diodes (LEDs) are demonstrated by integrating n = 4 CsPbI3 NPLs films with a blue LED chip, showing an excellent external quantum efficiency of 18.3% and high brightness exceeding 3 × 106 nits. Stringent requirements for future display technologies, are satisfied based on the high color purity, stability, and brightness of CsPbI3 NPLs.

In Situ Synthesis of Br‐Rich CsPbBr3 Nanoplatelets: Enhanced Stability and High PLQY for Wide Color Gamut Displays

AbstractThis study presents the Br‐rich in situ synthesis of blue‐emitting 2D CsPbBr3 nanoplatelets (NPLs) with various Br/Pb ratios using ZnBr2 as a Br precursor to enhance Br ion adsorption significantly. This leads to effective passivation of surface defects, particularly Pb−Br bonds, by increasing the positive charge density around Pb atoms, thus creating a stable bonding environment and reducing defect formation. Consequently, the photoluminescence quantum yield (PLQY) improves from 31.15% for a Br/Pb ratio of 2 to 87.2% for a ratio of 6. NPLs with a Br/Pb ratio of 6 also exhibit longer lifetimes (16.69 ns) and slower bleach recovery dynamics, indicating fewer non‐radiative recombination pathways and effective exciton dynamics. Additionally, NPLs with the Br/Pb ratio of 6 demonstrated better thermal stability, with an activation energy of 124.3 meV, indicating stronger exciton binding. These NPLs also exhibited enhanced stability, with UV tolerance at 43.9% and water resistance at 23.8%, making them suitable for displays and lighting. Furthermore, Br‐passivated CsPbBr3 NPLs are used as blue emitters in prototype white LEDs, achieving a wide color gamut, 126.6% of the National Television Standards Committee and 94.5% of Rec. 2020, demonstrating their potential for high‐quality lighting and advanced display technologies.

Highly Luminescent Manganese‐Doped 2D Hybrid Perovskite Nanoplatelets with Dual Emissions Controlled Through Layer Thickness Modulation

AbstractDoping semiconductor nanomaterials with manganese ion (Mn2+) introduce a well‐defined photoactive d‐d level within the band structure, paving the way for diverse applications. Although Mn doping in single‐layer 2D hybrid perovskites (n = 1) has been extensively studied, limited research has been conducted on doping with modulation of the layer thickness. Herein, Mn2+ doping in hybrid 2D perovskite nanoplatelets (NPLs), L2An‐1[Pb1‐xMnx]nBr3n+1 (where L = butylammonium, A = methylammonium), with variations in Mn concentration (x = 0–0.60) and layer thickness (n = 1–3) is reported. Substitutional doping of Mn significantly increases the photoluminescence quantum yield as well as the rate of energy transfer efficiency, which strongly depends on the layer thickness of NPLs. The Mn concentration in 2D NPLs determines the rate of forward and backward energy transfer. Low‐temperature emission spectra allow to determine thickness‐dependent exciton binding energy for Mn‐doped 2D NPLs (x = 0.5) with values of 410 ± 11 meV (n = 1), 188 ± 9 meV (n = 2), and 151 ± 17 meV (n = 3). The faster dissociation of band‐edge excitons into free carriers at Mn2+ sites results in high brightness with an excellent CRI of 89.2 for the white light‐emitting diode.

Demystifying Trion Emission in CdSe Nanoplatelets.

At cryogenic temperatures, the photoluminescence spectrum of CdSe nanoplatelets (NPLs) usually consists of multiple emission lines, the origin of which is still under debate. While there seems to be consensus that both neutral excitons and trions contribute to the NPL emission, the prominent role of trions is rather puzzling. In this work, we demonstrate that Förster resonant energy transfer in stacks of NPLs combined with hole trap states in specific NPLs within the stack trigger trion formation, while single NPL spectra are dominated by neutral excitonic emission. This interpretation is verified by implementing copper (Cu+) dopants into the lattice as intentional hole traps. Trion emission gets strongly enhanced, and due to the large amount of hole trapping Cu+ states in each single NPL, trion formation does not necessarily require stacking of NPLs. Thus, the ratio between trion and neutral exciton emission can be controlled by either changing the amount of stacked NPLs during sample preparation or implementing copper dopants into the lattice which act as additional hole traps.

Evidence of Energy and Hole Transfer between 2D CdSe0.7Te0.3 Alloy NPLs with Porphyrin Molecules.

Colloidal two-dimensional (2D) nanoplatelets (NPLs) have been extensively studied owing to promising potential in optoelectronic applications. Here, we have reported the preparation of 2D CdSeTe alloy NPLs and investigated their energy and charge transfer with porphyrin molecules. The red shifting in the optical properties suggests the change in the band gaps. Furthermore, the energy and the charge transfer are evident in the composite of CdSeTe alloy NPLs with 5,10,15,20-tetra(4pyridyl)-porphyrin (TpyP) molecules. The quenching in the photoluminescence (PL) spectra and PL decay time supports the energy transfer (~61 % efficiency) and the charge transfer. The thermodynamically feasible hole transfer is evidenced by the band alignment of the alloy NPLs and TpyP molecules, which is further supported by a transient absorption spectroscopy (TAS) study. The TA study found the hole transfer within ~3 ps time scale, proving the effective charge carrier separation for better optoelectronic applications.

Bi2WO6 and TiS2 composite nanostructures displaying synergetic boosted energy storage in supercapacitor

The enhancement in the capacitance of a supercapacitor has been successfully achieved by synthesizing Bi2WO6 (BW), TiS2 (T), and Bi2WO6/TiS2 (BW/T) composites utilizing the hydrothermal process. The possible growth mechanism has also been presented. The morphological and structural characteristics of the cultivated samples were observed using FT-IR, XRD, SEM, EDS, and UV–vis spectroscopy techniques. TiS2 nano platelets uniformly dispersed across the hierarchically opened surface of Bi2WO6 in the synthesized hierarchical composite. This leads to an increase in surface porosity and surface area, which in turn enhances the transport of electrons and ions on the composite BW/T surface. The optimal electrode BW/T@40 % composite electrode shown a substantial enhancement in particular capacitance (1153.3 F/g) compared to the separate BW (523.7 F/g) and T (453.3 F/g) electrodes due to its rapid ion transfer, many active sites on its large surface area, and strong synergistic impact. Furthermore, the BW/T@40 % combination demonstrated exceptional stability, with over 92 % of its capacitance maintained after 4500th cycles and b value (0.71) proved the supercapacitor behavior. Therefore, BW/T@40 % binary metal oxide and sulfide composites exhibit improved specific capacitance and greatly prolonged life-cycle, confirming its potential use in high-performance energy storage devices.

Cavity Controlled Upconversion in CdSe Nanoplatelet Polaritons.

Exciton-polaritons provide a versatile platform for investigating quantum electrodynamics effects in chemical systems, such as polariton-altered chemical reactivity. However, using polaritons in chemical contexts will require a better understanding of their photophysical properties under ambient conditions, where chemistry is typically performed. Here, we used cavity quality factor to control strong light-matter interactions and in particular the excited state dynamics of colloidal CdSe nanoplatelets (NPLs) coupled to a Fabry-Pérot optical cavity. With increasing cavity quality factor, we observe significant population of the upper polariton (UP) state, exemplified by the rare observation of substantial UP photoluminescence (PL). Excitation of the lower polariton (LP) states results in upconverted PL emission from the UP branch due to efficient exchange of population between the LP, UP and the reservoir of dark states present in collectively coupled polaritonic systems. In addition, we measure time scales for polariton dynamics ∼100 ps, implying great potential for NPL based polariton systems to affect photochemical reaction rates. State-of-the-art quantum dynamical simulations show outstanding quantitative agreement with experiments, and thus provide important insight into polariton photophysical dynamics of collectively coupled nanocrystal-based systems. These findings represent a significant step toward the development of practical polariton photochemistry platforms.

Enhancing Lubrication Performance of Plastic Oil Lubricant with Oleic Acid-Functionalized Graphene Nanoplatelets and Hexagonal Boron Nitride Solid Lubricant Additives

The study explored the viability of using waste plastic oil (PO) as an alternative lubricant to petroleum-based lubricants in industrial settings. To enhance the lubrication performance of the PO, this study incorporated cost-efficient, oleic acid-modified, graphene nano platelets [GNP (f)] and hexagonal boron nitride [hBN (f)] nano solid lubricant additives into the PO in various concentrations, forming functionalized nano lubricants. The PO and its functionalized nano lubricant’s rheological, dispersion stability, thermal degradation, friction, and wear performance were investigated. Results manifest that incorporating GNP (f) and hBN (f) into the PO significantly enhanced the viscosity and dispersion stability. In addition, it was seen that GNP (f) and hBN (f) nano lubricants lowered the coefficient of friction (COF) by 53% and 63.63% respectively, compared to the PO. However, the GNP (f) and hBN (f) nano lubricants demonstrated a 3.16% decrease and a 50.08% increase in wear volume relative to the PO. Overall, the GNP (f) and hBN (f) nano lubricants displayed a synergistic friction behavior, while they exhibited an antagonistic behavior pertaining to the wear volume. The study elucidated the mechanisms underlying friction and wear performance of the nano lubricants.

Room-temperature strong coupling between CdSe nanoplatelets and a metal-DBR Fabry-Pérot cavity.

The generation of exciton-polaritons through strong light-matter interactions represents an emerging platform for exploring quantum phenomena. A significant challenge in colloidal nanocrystal-based polaritonic systems is the ability to operate at room temperature with high fidelity. Here, we demonstrate the generation of room-temperature exciton-polaritons through the coupling of CdSe nanoplatelets (NPLs) with a Fabry-Pérot optical cavity, leading to a Rabi splitting of 74.6meV. Quantum-classical calculations accurately predict the complex dynamics between the many dark state excitons and the optically allowed polariton states, including the experimentally observed lower polariton photoluminescence emission, and the concentration of photoluminescence intensities at higher in-plane momenta as the cavity becomes more negatively detuned. The Rabi splitting measured at 5K is similar to that at 300K, validating the feasibility of the temperature-independent operation of this polaritonic system. Overall, these results show that CdSe NPLs are an excellent material to facilitate the development of room-temperature quantum technologies.

Controlled Synthesis of Terbium-Doped Colloidal Gd2O2S Nanoplatelets Enables High-Performance X-ray Scintillators.

Terbium-doped gadolinium oxysulfide (Gd2O2S:Tb3+), commonly referred to as Gadox, is a widely used scintillator material due to its exceptional X-ray attenuation efficiency and high light yield. However, Gadox-based scintillators suffer from low X-ray spatial resolution due to their large particle size, which causes significant light scattering. To address this limitation, we report the synthesis of terbium-doped colloidal Gadox nanoplatelets (NPLs) with near-unity photoluminescence quantum yield (PLQY) and high radioluminescence light yield (LY). In particular, our investigation reveals a strong correlation between PLQY, LY, particle size, and Tb3+concentration. Our synthetic approach allows precise control over the lateral size and thickness of the Gadox NPLs, resulting in a LY of 50,000 photons/MeV. Flexible scintillating screens fabricated with the solution-processable Gadox NPLs exhibited a 20 lp/mm X-ray spatial resolution, surpassing commercial Gadox scintillators. These high-performance and flexible Gadox NPL-based scintillators enable enhanced X-ray imaging capabilities in medicine and security. Our work provides a framework for designing nanomaterial scintillators with superior spatial resolution and efficiency through precise control of dimensions and dopant concentration.

Introducing Ag Dopants into CdSe Nanoplatelets (NPLs) Leads to Effective Charge Separation for Better Photodetector Performance.

Solution-processed colloidal cadmium chalcogenide nanoplatelets (NPLs)-based photodetectors (PD) are promising materials for next-generation optoelectronic devices due to their excellent optical properties. Here, we report on ultrafast carrier relaxation dynamics of four monolayer (4 ML) Ag-doped CdSe (Ag: CdSe) NPLs using ultrafast transient absorption spectroscopy and their photodetectors applications. A broad dopant emission is observed at around 650 nm with a large FWHM of ~431 meV and band edge emission at 515 nm. The intragap dopant state acts as a hole acceptor, which leads to better charge separation. The ultrafast transient absorption spectroscopy study shows faster carrier recombination dynamics with a hole transfer time scale of ~10 ps in Ag-doped CdSe NPLs. This supports the excited hole capture phenomenon at the dopant state. Ag-doped CdSe NPLs-based PD performed better than undoped CdSe NPLs with detectivity and responsivity values of 1.3×1010 Jones and 2.4 mA/W, respectively.

Ultrasmall 2D Sn‐Doped MAPbBr3 Nanoplatelets Enable Bright Pure‐Blue Emission

AbstractSynthesis of perovskites that exhibit pure‐blue emission with high photoluminescence quantum yield (PLQY) in both nanocrystal solutions and nanocrystal‐only films presents a significant challenge. In this work, a room‐temperature method is developed to synthesize ultrasmall, monodispersed, Sn‐doped methylammonium lead bromide (MAPb1‐xSnxBr3) perovskite nanoplatelets (NPLs) in which the strong quantum confinement effect endows pure blue emission (460 nm) and a high quantum yield (87%). Post‐treatment using n‐hexylammonium bromide (HABr) repaired surface defects and thus substantially increased the stability and PLQY (80%) of the NPL films. Concurrently, high‐precision patterned films (200‐µm linewidth) are successfully fabricated by using cost‐effective spray‐coating technology. This research provides a novel perspective for the preparation of high PLQY, highly stable, and easily processable perovskite nanomaterials.

Highly stable deep-blue emitting CsPbBr3 nanoplatelets with modified zwitterionic surface passivation

Two-dimensional CsPbBr3 nanoplatelets (NPLs) with narrow emission line width are one of the most promising materials for lighting and display applications. Nevertheless, it has been difficult to successfully synthesize deep-blue emitting CsPbBr3 NPLs with long-term stability and high photoluminescence quantum yield (PLQY), which prevents their widespread application in the field of lighting. The use of ligands engineering strategy has demonstrated an increase in the PLQY and stability. Herein, a method employing in situ formation of modified zwitterionic surface ligands is proposed to successfully synthesize high-quality CsPbBr3 NPLs. Zwitterionic passivation strategy can produce deep blue emission of CsPbBr3 NPLs at ∼ 461 nm, achieving a near-unity quantum yield and excellent stability for long-term storage at room-temperature, heat treatment, and ultraviolet irradiation. This enhancement can be attributed to the strong chelation between the modified zwitterions and the surface of CsPbBr3 NPLs, which can effectively immobilize surface halide ions and passivate surface defects. This work provides a flexible way to achieve high PLQY and improve the stability issues in perovskite NPLs.
