Summary
Stable, red-emitting cesium lead iodide (CsPbI3) nanoplates were synthesized using YCl3. This method enhances photoluminescence quantum yields (PLQY) and stability for display applications.
Area of Science:

- To investigate the effect of Yttrium (Y3+) doping on the structural and optical properties of CsPbI3 NPs.
- To enhance the photoluminescence quantum yield (PLQY) and long-term stability of the synthesized NPs.
Main Methods:
- Chemical synthesis of CsPbI3 nanoplates assisted by Yttrium chloride (YCl3).
- Characterization of structural and optical properties using various spectroscopic techniques.
- First-principles calculations to understand the electronic band structure modifications.
Main Results:
