Abstract:
A donor-acceptor ligand, 3-amino-2-bromo-6-methoxypyridine (ABMeoPy), was introduced to passivate FA0.8Cs0.2PbBr3 nanocrystals (NCs) by a post-processing method. The donor-acceptor interaction can greatly enhance the coordination bond of pyridine-Pb2+, and improve FA0.8Cs0.2PbBr3 NC performance with 95.99% photoluminescence quantum yield (PLQY), 6-month stability in solution, and 26% trap density decrease. In the light of ABMeoPy passivation of FA0.8Cs0.2PbBr3 NCs, the maximum luminance, the maximum current efficiency, and EQE of light-emitting diodes (LEDs) increased 69%, 110%, and 111%, respectively. The strategy of using D-A molecules to passivate perovskite NCs is quite simple and effective, which can be widely promoted in perovskite-based LEDs or solar cells.
