Efficient Deep-Blue Light-Emitting Diodes Through Decoupling of Colloidal Perovskite Quantum Dots.

Metal halide perovskite light-emitting diodes (PeLEDs) have exceptional color purity but designs that emit deep-blue color with high efficiency have not been fully achieved and become more difficult in the thin film of confined perovskite colloidal quantum dots (PeQDs) due to particle interaction. Here it is demonstrated that electronic coupling and energy transfer in PeQDs induce redshift in the emission by PeQD film, and consequently hinder deep-blue emission. To achieve deep-blue emission by avoiding electronic coupling and energy transfer, a QD-in-organic solid solution is introduced to physically separate the QDs in the film.
