High-Resolution Patterning of Perovskite Quantum Dots via Femtosecond Laser-Induced Forward Transfer

High-resolution patterning of perovskite quantum dots (PQDs) is of significant importance for satisfying various practical applications, including high-resolution displays and image sensing. However, due to the limitation of the instability of PQDs, the existing patterning strategy always involves chemical reagent treatment or mask contact that is not suitable for PQDs. Therefore, it is still a challenge to fabricate high-resolution full-color PQD arrays. Here, we present a femtosecond laser-induced forward transfer (FsLIFT) technology, which enables the programmable fabrication of high-resolution full-color PQD arrays and arbitrary micropatterns. The FsLIFT process integrates transfer, deposition, patterning, and alignment in one step without involving a mask and chemical reagent treatment, guaranteeing the preservation of the photophysical properties of PQDs. A full-color PQD array with a high resolution of 2 μm has been successfully achieved. We anticipate that our facile and flexible FsLIFT technology can facilitate the development of diverse practical applications based on patterned PQDs.
