Suppressed Phase Separation of Mixed-Halide Perovskite Quantum Dots Confined in Mesoporous Metal Organic Frameworks

Abstract

Mixed-halide perovskite quantum dots (PeQDs) are the most competitive candidates in designing solar cells and light-emitting devices (LEDs) due to their tunable bandgap and high-efficiency quantum yield. However, phase separation in mixed-halide perovskites under illumination can form rich iodine and bromine regions, which change its optical responses. Herein, we synthesize PeQDs combined with mesoporous zinc-based metal organic framework (MOF) crystals, which can greatly improve the stability of anti-anion exchange, including photo-, thermal, and long-term stabilities under illumination. This unique structure provides a solution for improving the performance of perovskite optoelectronic devices and stabilizing mixed-halide perovskite devices.
