Spectrally Stable Deep-Blue Light-Emitting Diodes Based on Layer-Transferred Single-Crystalline Ruddlesden-Popper Halide Perovskites.

A novel approach to producing high-color-purity blue-light-emitting diodes based on single-crystalline Ruddlesden-Popper perovskites (RPPs) is reported. The utilization of a pure bromide composition eliminates any possibility of halide segregation, which can otherwise lead to undesired shifts in the emission wavelength or irreversible degradation of the spectral line width. Phase-pure PEAMAPbBr single crystals with a lateral size exceeding 1 cm can be synthesized using the inverse temperature crystallization method.

Semitransparent Perovskite Solar Cells with Enhanced Light Utilization Efficiencies by Transferable Ag Nanogrid Electrodes.

Solar cells that are semitransparent and highly efficient can find diverse applications in automobile windows, building walls, and wearable devices. Here, we present a semitransparent perovskite thin-film solar cell with an Ag nanogrid transparent electrode, where electrospun poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO) nanofibers are used as an etching mask. Directional electrospinning has allowed us to obtain a grid-shaped electrode of well-aligned Ag nanogrids.
