This study investigates the impact of lithium doping on the structural and photophysical properties of spin-coated CsPbBr perovskite thin films. The deposited films display a pristine structure, preferentially growing along the (220) direction, and exhibit high-quality green photoluminescence at around 530 nm. The doping leads to an improvement in the optical properties of the films, as evidenced by a stronger photoluminescence (PL) intensity compared to undoped CsPbBr, particularly at temperatures below 200 K. The increase in PL intensity suggests a decrease in defects and surface passivation. Additionally, the decrease in the power-law exponent from 1.6 to 1.0 indicates a reduction in non-radiative recombination, likely due to trap states filling with free electrons induced by the doping. Overall, doping with lithium reduces non-radiative recombination, fills trap states, and reduces band tail/activation energy, leading to improved optoelectronic properties of the films. This investigation provides insights into the photophysical properties of the Li-CsPbBr absorber layer and the recombination mechanism, and helps to unravel new methods for the development of high-stability, high-performance perovskite thin-film solar cells and optoelectronic devices.

The unique optical properties of perovskite quantum dots (PQDs), particularly the tunable photoluminescence (PL) across the visible spectrum, make them a promising tool for chlorinated detection. However, the correlation between the fluorescence emission shift behavior and the interface of phase transformation in PQDs has not been thoroughly explored. In this study, we synthesized CsPbBr PQDs via the hot-injection method and demonstrated their ability to detect chlorinated volatile compounds such as HCl and NaOCl through a halide exchange process between the PQDs' solid thin film and the chlorinated vapor phase.

Paper is an ideal platform for creating flexible and eco-friendly electronic systems. Leveraging the synergistic integration of zero- and two-dimensional materials, it unfolds a broad spectrum of applications within the realm of the Internet of Things (IoT), spanning from wearable electronics to smart packaging solutions. However, for paper without a polymer coating, the rough and porous nature presents significant challenges as a substrate for electronics, and the absence of well-established fabrication methods further hinders its application in wearable electronics.

Multifunctional materials have attracted tremendous attention in intelligent and interactive devices. However, achieving multi-dimensional sensing capabilities with the same perovskite quantum dot (PQD) material is still in its infancy, with some considering it currently challenging and even unattainable. Drawing inspiration from neurons, a novel multifunctional CsPbBr/PDMS nanosphere is devised to sense humidity, temperature, and pressure simultaneously with unique interactive responses.

Perovskite nanocrystals (NCs) with their excellent optical and semiconductor properties have emerged as primary candidates for optoelectronic applications. While extensive research has been conducted on the 3D perovskite phase, the zero-dimensional (0D) form of this promising material in the NC format remains elusive. In this paper, a new synthesis strategy is proposed.
