Highly Emissive Colloidal Nanocrystals of a "2.5-Dimensional" Monomethylhydrazinium Lead Bromide.

The ability to control materials at the nanoscale has advanced optoelectronic devices, such as LEDs, displays, and quantum light sources. A new frontier is controlling exciton properties beyond quantum size confinement, achieved through single monolayer heterostructures. In the prototypical example of transition metal dichalcogenide heterostructures and moiré superlattices, excitons with long lifetimes, strong binding energies, and tunable dipole moments have been demonstrated and are ideal for optoelectronics and quantum applications.
