Room-Temperature, Homogeneous, Single-Step, and Large-Scale Synthesis of Perovskite Nanoplatelets for Blue Light-Emitting Diodes

Inorganic perovskite nanocrystals (IPNCs) have attracted considerable attention due to their excellent optoelectronic properties. However, problems arise from anion migration during the preparation of a blue light-emitting diode (LED), and only small-scale syntheses have been conducted on a laboratory scale. By using only Br as the anion here, CsPbBr3 was synthesized in the form of nanoplatelets to eliminate the effects of anion migration and to prepare an inorganic perovskite nanoplatelet (IPNPL) emitting blue light. In addition, the synthesis was performed under ambient conditions at room temperature, and the synthetic process was shortened to enable large-scale synthesis. We used a 1 L bottle for large-scale synthesis, and a photoluminescence quantum yield (PLQY) of 78% was observed at 460 nm. We fabricated LEDs by using IPNPLs, and we observed an electroluminescence peak at 461 nm. The developed synthetic method is expected to pave the way for commercialization of IPNCs and the next-generation display market.
