Pure-Phase Perovskite Quantum Well for Green Light-Emitting Diodes.

Perovskite multiple quantum wells (MQWs) have shown great potential in the field of light-emitting diodes (LEDs). However, the random formation of QWs with varying well widths ( numbers) often leads to suboptimal interface defects and charge transport issues. Here, we reveal that the crystallization sequence of bromide-based perovskite MQWs is large- QWs preceding small- QWs. With this insight, we prevent the crystallization of subsequent small- QWs by reducing the crystallization rate, ultimately resulting in the crystallization of only = 5 QWs. This reduction in the crystallization rate is achieved through the chemical interaction of dual additives with perovskite constituents. Additionally, the chemical interaction effectively passivates the uncoordinated lead ions defects. Consequently, pure-phase perovskite QWs with a high photoluminescence quantum efficiency of 75% are achieved. The resulting green LEDs achieve a peak external quantum efficiency of 17.1% and a maximum luminance of 29,480 cd m, which is attractive for full-color display applications of perovskites.
