This study compared the photoluminescence (PL) stabilities of formamidinium (FA) and methylammonium (MA) in lead iodide perovskite quantum dots (QDs). To exclude other factors, such as size and purity, that may affect stability, MAPbI and FAPbI QDs with nearly identical sizes (~10.0 nm) were synthesized by controlling the ligand concentration and synthesis temperature.
