Enhancement of Photoluminescence Quantum Yield and Stability in CsPbBr3 Perovskite Quantum Dots by Trivalent Doping.

ABSTRACT: We determine the influence of substitutional defects on perovskite quantum dots through experimental and theoretical investigations. Substitutional defects were introduced by trivalent dopants (In, Sb, and Bi) in CsPbBr3 by ligand-assisted reprecipitation. We show that the photoluminescence (PL) emission peak shifts toward shorter wavelengths when doping concentrations are increased. Trivalent metal-doped CsPbBr3 enhanced the PL quantum yield (~10%) and air stability (over 10 days). Our findings provide new insights into the influence of substitutional defects on substituted CsPbBr3 that underpin their physical properties.

Cesium Lead Bromide Perovskites: Synthesis, Stability, and Photoluminescence Quantum Yield Enhancement by Hexadecyltrimethylammonium Bromide Doping.

Project description:Perovskite nanoparticles having a crystalline structure have attracted scientists' attention due to their great potential in optoelectronic and scintillation applications. The photoluminescence quantum yield (PLQY) is one of the main critical photophysical properties of the perovskite nanoparticles. Unfortunately, the main limitation of cesium lead halide perovskites is their instability in an ambient atmosphere, where they undergo a rapid chemical decomposition within time. For this purpose, hexadecyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) was used as a surfactant dopant to test in the first place its effect on the stability of CsPbBr3 perovskites and on the PLQY values of the prepared perovskites. The addition of CTAB has proven its efficiency in the formed CsPbBr3 nanoparticles by increasing their thermal stability and by enhancing their PLQY up to 75%. These results were obtained after the successful preparation of CsPbBr3 perovskite nanoparticles by optimizing three different reaction parameters, starting from the time of the reaction, moving to the concentration of lead bromide, and ending with the concentration of cesium oleate. Therefore, it was found that the most stable CsPbBr3 perovskites were formed when mixing 0.15 g of lead bromide heated for 40 min with a volume of 1.2 mL of cesium oleate.

Emission Recovery and Stability Enhancement of Inorganic Perovskite Quantum Dots.

Project description:Inorganic lead halide perovskite quantum dots (PQDs), especially red emission PQDs, are well-known to easily lose their luminescence emission with time, which shows from strong emission of fresh PQDs to no emission of aged PQDs. Here, we demonstrate that trioctylphosphine (TOP) can effectively and instantly recover the luminescence emission of aged red PQDs, making the "dead" PQDs "reborn". Furthermore, TOP also works to improve the emission intensity of freshly synthesized PQDs. In this process, TOP does not make any detectable structural changes to PQDs. Besides, TOP can effectively enhance the stability of PQDs against long-term storage, temperature, UV irradiation, and polar solvents. This unusual emission recovery and stability enhancement by TOP shall promote the understanding of particle surface conditions and the development of PQD devices.

Tuning the Photoluminescence of Graphene Quantum Dots by Photochemical Doping with Nitrogen.

Project description:Nitrogen-doped graphene quantum dots (NGQDs) were synthesized by irradiating graphene quantum dots (GQDs) in an NH? atmosphere. The photoluminescence (PL) properties of the GQDs and the NGQDs samples were investigated. Compared with GQDs, a clear PL blue-shift of NGQDs could be achieved by regulating the irradiating time. The NGQDs obtained by irradiation of GQDs for 70 min had a high N content of 15.34 at % and a PL blue-shift of about 47 nm. This may be due to the fact that photochemical doping of GQDs with nitrogen can significantly enhance the contents of pyridine-like nitrogen, and also effectively decrease the contents of oxygen functional groups of NGQDs, thus leading to the observed obvious PL blue-shift.

Quantum Yield Enhancement in Graphene Quantum Dots via Esterification with Benzyl Alcohol.

Project description:The quantum yield of graphene quantum dots was enhanced by restriction of the rotation and vibration of surface functional groups on the edges of the graphene quantum dots via esterification with benzyl alcohol; this enhancement is crucial for the widespread application of graphene quantum dots in light-harvesting devices and optoelectronics. The obtained graphene quantum dots with highly graphene-stacked structures are understood to participate in ?-? interactions with adjacent aromatic rings of the benzylic ester on the edges of the graphene quantum dots, thus impeding the nonradiative recombination process in graphene quantum dots. Furthermore, the crude graphene quantum dots were in a gel-like solid form and showed white luminescence under blue light illumination. Our results show the potential for improving the photophysical properties of nanomaterials, such as the quantum yield and band-gap energy for emission, by controlling the functional groups on the surface of graphene quantum dots through an organic modification approach.

Highly Efficient Blue-Emitting CsPbBr3 Perovskite Nanocrystals through Neodymium Doping.

Project description:Colloidal CsPbX3 (X = Br, Cl, and I) perovskite nanocrystals exhibit tunable bandgaps over the entire visible spectrum and high photoluminescence quantum yields in the green and red regions. However, the lack of highly efficient blue-emitting perovskite nanocrystals limits their development for optoelectronic applications. Herein, neodymium (III) (Nd3+) doped CsPbBr3 nanocrystals are prepared through the ligand-assisted reprecipitation method at room temperature with tunable photoemission from green to deep blue. A blue-emitting nanocrystal with a central wavelength at 459 nm, an exceptionally high photoluminescence quantum yield of 90%, and a spectral width of 19 nm is achieved. First principles calculations reveal that the increase in photoluminescence quantum yield upon doping is driven by an enhancement of the exciton binding energy due to increased electron and hole effective masses and an increase in oscillator strength due to shortening of the Pb-Br bond. Putting these results together, an all-perovskite white light-emitting diode is successfully fabricated, demonstrating that B-site composition engineering is a reliable strategy to further exploit the perovskite family for wider optoelectronic applications.

Ligand-Length Modification in CsPbBr3 Perovskite Nanocrystals and Bilayers with PbS Quantum Dots for Improved Photodetection Performance.

Project description:Nanocrystals surface chemistry engineering offers a direct approach to tune charge carrier dynamics in nanocrystals-based photodetectors. For this purpose, we have investigated the effects of altering the surface chemistry of thin films of CsPbBr3 perovskite nanocrystals produced by the doctor blading technique, via solid state ligand-exchange using 3-mercaptopropionic acid (MPA). The electrical and electro-optical properties of photovoltaic and photoconductor devices were improved after the MPA ligand exchange, mainly because of a mobility increase up to 5 × 10-3 cm 2 / Vs . The same technology was developed to build a tandem photovoltaic device based on a bilayer of PbS quantum dots (QDs) and CsPbBr3 perovskite nanocrystals. Here, the ligand exchange was successfully carried out in a single step after the deposition of these two layers. The photodetector device showed responsivities around 40 and 20 mA/W at visible and near infrared wavelengths, respectively. This strategy can be of interest for future visible-NIR cameras, optical sensors, or receivers in photonic devices for future Internet-of-Things technology.

Multiphoton Excitation of CsPbBr3 Perovskite Quantum Dots (PQDs): How Many Electrons Can One PQD Donate to Multiple Molecular Acceptors?

Project description:Metastable multiexcitonic states (MESs) of semiconductor quantum dots can be involved in multielectron transfer reactions, which opens new perspectives in nanomaterials-based optoelectronic applications. Herein, we demonstrate the generation of a MES in CsPbBr3 perovskite quantum dots (PQDs) and its dissociation dynamics through multiple electron transfers to molecular electron acceptors, anthraquinones (AQs), bound to the PQD surface by a carboxylic anchor. As many as 14 excitons are produced at an excitation density of roughly 220 ?J cm-2 without detectable PQD degradation. Addition of AQ results in the formation of PQD-AQ hybrids with excess of AQs (PQD:AQ ? 1:20), which opens the possibility of multielectron transfer acts from MES to AQs. We found that the electron transfer saturates after roughly five transfer acts and that the first electron transfer (ET) time constant is as short as 1 ps. However, each ET increases the Coulomb potential barrier for the next ET, which decreases the rate of ET, resulting in a saturation after five ETs.

Enhancement of Charge Transfer and Quenching of Photoluminescence of Capped CdS Quantum Dots.

Project description:Quantum dots (Q-dots) of cadmium sulfide (CdS) with three different capping ligands, 1-butanethiol (BT), 2-mercaptoethanol (ME) and benzyl mercaptan (BM) have been investigated. An external electric field of variable strength of 0.2-1.0 MV cm(-1) was applied to the sample of capped CdS Q-dots doped in a poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) films. Field-induced changes in optical absorption of capped CdS Q-dots were observed in terms of purely the second-derivative of the absorption spectrum (the Stark shift), indicating an enhancement in electric dipole moment following transition to the first exciton state. The enhancement depends on the shape and size of the Q-dots prepared using different capping ligands. Field induced-change in photoluminescence (PL) reveals similar changes, an enhancement in charge-transfer (CT) character in exciton state. PL of capped CdS Q-dots is significantly quenched in presence of external electric field. The strong field-induced quenching occurs as a result of the increased charge separation resulting exciton dissociation. Thus, understanding the CT character and field-induced PL quenching of CdS Q-dots is important for photovoltaic, LEDs and biological applications.

Phonon-assisted up-conversion photoluminescence of quantum dots.

Project description:Phonon-assisted up-conversion photoluminescence can boost energy of an emission photon to be higher than that of the excitation photon by absorbing vibration energy (or phonons) of the emitter. Here, up-conversion photoluminescence power-conversion efficiency (power ratio between the emission and excitation photons) for CdSe/CdS core/shell quantum dots is observed to be beyond unity. Instead of commonly known defect-assisted up-conversion photoluminescence for colloidal quantum dots, temperature-dependent measurements and single-dot spectroscopy reveal the up-conversion photoluminescence and conventional down-conversion photoluminescence share the same electron-phonon coupled electronic states. Ultrafast spectroscopy results imply the thermalized excitons for up-conversion photoluminescence form within 200 fs, which is 100,000 times faster than the radiative recombination rate of the exciton. Results suggest that colloidal quantum dots can be exploited as efficient, stable, and cost-effective emitters for up-conversion photoluminescence in various applications.
