Cesium Lead Bromide Nanocrystals: Synthesis, Modification, and Application to O Sensing.

The fluorescence intensity of inorganic CsPbBr (CPB) perovskite nanocrystals (NCs) decreases in the presence of O. In this study, we synthesized CPB NCs with various shapes and sizes for use as optical gas sensing materials. We fabricated O gas sensors from the various CPB NCs on several porous and nonporous substrates and examined the effects of the NC shapes and aggregate sizes and the substrate pore size on the device response.
