Broadband emission from zero-dimensional CsPbI perovskite nanocrystals.

To overcome the drawbacks in three-dimensional (3D) perovskites, such as instability, surface hydration, and ion migration, recently researchers have focused on comparatively stable lower-dimensional perovskite derivatives. All-inorganic zero-dimensional (0D) perovskites (, CsPbX; X = Cl, Br, I) can be evolved as a high performing material due to their larger exciton binding energy and better structural stability. The clear understanding of carrier recombination process in 0D perovskites is very important for better exploitation in light-emitting devices.

Modulation of New Excitons in Transition Metal Dichalcogenide-Perovskite Oxide System.

The exciton, a quasi-particle that creates a bound state of an electron and a hole, is typically found in semiconductors. It has attracted major attention in the context of both fundamental science and practical applications. Transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) are a new class of 2D materials that include direct band-gap semiconductors with strong spin-orbit coupling and many-body interactions.

Coherent Spin and Quasiparticle Dynamics in Solution-Processed Layered 2D Lead Halide Perovskites.

Layered 2D halide perovskites with their alternating organic and inorganic atomic layers that form a self-assembled quantum well system are analogues of the purely inorganic 2D transition metal dichalcogenides. Within their periodic structures lie a hotbed of photophysical phenomena such as dielectric confinement effect, optical Stark effect, strong exciton-photon coupling, etc. Detailed understanding into the strong light-matter interactions in these hybrid organic-inorganic semiconductor systems remains modest.
