Stable ?/? phase junction of formamidinium lead iodide perovskites for enhanced near-infrared emission.
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: Although formamidinium lead iodide (FAPbI3) perovskite has shown great promise in the field of perovskite-based optoelectronic devices, it suffers the complications of a structural phase transition from a black perovskite phase (?-FAPbI3) to a yellow non-perovskite phase (?-FAPbI3). Generally, it is pivotal to avoid ?-FAPbI3 since only ?-FAPbI3 is desirable for photoelectric conversion and near-infrared (NIR) emission. However, herein, we firstly exploited the undesirable ?-FAPbI3 to enable structurally stable, pure FAPbI3 films with a controllable ?/? phase junction at low annealing temperature (60 °C) through stoichiometrically modified precursors (FAI/PbI2 = 1.1-1.5). The ?/? phase junction contributes to a striking stabilization of the perovskite phase of FAPbI3 at low temperature and significantly enhanced NIR emission at 780 nm, which is markedly different from pure ?-FAPbI3 (815 nm). In particular, the optimal ?/? phase junction with FAI/PbI2 = 1.2 exhibited preferable long-term stability against humidity and high PLQY of 6.9%, nearly 10-fold higher than that of pure ?-FAPbI3 (0.7%). The present study opens a new approach to realize highly stable and efficient emitting perovskite materials by utilizing the phase junctions.
