We show nanoscale phase stabilization of CsPbI quantum dots (QDs) to low temperatures that can be used as the active component of efficient optoelectronic devices. CsPbI is an all-inorganic analog to the hybrid organic cation halide perovskites, but the cubic phase of bulk CsPbI (α-CsPbI)-the variant with desirable band gap-is only stable at high temperatures. We describe the formation of α-CsPbI QD films that are phase-stable for months in ambient air. The films exhibit long-range electronic transport and were used to fabricate colloidal perovskite QD photovoltaic cells with an open-circuit voltage of 1.23 volts and efficiency of 10.77%. These devices also function as light-emitting diodes with low turn-on voltage and tunable emission.

Two-dimensional (2D) Ruddlesden-Popper perovskites (RPPs) have garnered significant attention due to their enhanced stability compared with their three-dimensional counterparts. However, the power conversion efficiency (PCE) of 2D perovskite solar cells (2D-PSCs) remains lower than that of 3D-PSCs. Understanding the microstructural evolution of 2D perovskite films during fabrication is essential for improving their performance.
