Abstract:
The strong spin-orbital coupling and intense optical transition in lead halide perovskites enable facile optical injection and manipulation of spin states potentially useful for spintronics, one manifestation of which is the optical Stark effect (OSE). A strong OSE would benefit from discrete energy levels and a strong band edge transition with concentrated oscillator strength, which can be realized in three-dimensionally confined quantum dots (QDs). This idea, however, has not been explored yet for perovskite materials. Here we report the observation of strong OSE in perovskite colloidal QDs using circularly polarized transient absorption spectroscopy. The large OSE shifts correspond to transition dipoles as large as 52 D, which compares favorably to those recently reported for higher-dimensional perovskites as well as transition metal dichalcogenide monolayers. Colloidal synthesis also allows for facile tuning of the OSE spectral ranges of perovskite QDs via sizes and compositions, and the impact of these parameters on the OSE is examined, providing fundamental insights into the band edge transition of lead halide perovskites.

When atoms or molecules absorb light at the proper frequency, their electrons are excited to higher-energy orbitals. For many main group atoms and molecules, the absorbed photons are in the ultraviolet range of the electromagnetic spectrum, which cannot be detected by the human eye. For coordination compounds, the energy difference between the d orbitals often allows photons in the visible range to be absorbed and emitted, which is seen as colors by the human...
