    摘要: Solution-processed planar perovskite light-emitting diodes (LEDs) promise high-performance and cost-effective electroluminescent (EL) devices ideal for large-area display and lighting applications. Exploiting emission layers with high ratios of horizontal transition dipole moments (TDMs) is expected to boost photon outcoupling of planar LEDs. However, LEDs based on anisotropic perovskite nanoemitters remains to be inefficient (external quantum efficiency, EQE <5%), due to the difficulties of simultaneously controlling the orientations of TDMs, achieving high photoluminescence quantum yields (PLQYs) and realizing charge balance in the films of the assembled nanostructures. Here we demonstrate efficient EL from an in-situ grown continuous perovskite film comprising of a monolayer of face-on oriented nanoplatelets. The ratio of horizontal TDMs of the perovskite nanoplatelet films is ~84%, substantially higher than that of isotropic emitters (67%). The nanoplatelet film shows a high PLQY of ~75%. These merits enable LEDs with a peak EQE of 23.6%, representing the most efficient perovskite LEDs.

    摘要: Perovskite light-emitting diodes (PeLEDs) have emerged as a strong contender for next-generation display and information technologies. However, similar to perovskite solar cells, the poor operational stability remains the main obstacle toward commercial applications. Here we demonstrate ultra-stable and efficient PeLEDs with extraordinary operational lifetimes (T50) of 1.0x10^4 h, 2.8x10^4 h, 5.4x10^5 h, and 1.9x10^6 h at initial radiance (or current densities) of 3.7 W/sr/m2 (~5 mA/cm2), 2.1 W/sr/m2 (~3.2 mA/cm2), 0.42 W/sr/m2 (~1.1 mA/cm2), and 0.21 W/sr/m2 (~0.7 mA/cm2) respectively, and external quantum efficiencies of up to 22.8%. Key to this breakthrough is the introduction of a dipolar molecular stabilizer, which serves two critical roles simultaneously. First, it prevents the detrimental transformation and decomposition of the alpha-phase FAPbI3 perovskite, by inhibiting the formation of lead and iodide intermediates. Secondly, hysteresis-free device operation and microscopic luminescence imaging experiments reveal substantially suppressed ion migration in the emissive perovskite. The record-long PeLED lifespans are encouraging, as they now satisfy the stability requirement for commercial organic LEDs (OLEDs). These results remove the critical concern that halide perovskite devices may be intrinsically unstable, paving the path toward industrial applications.

    摘要: The radiative recombination of injected charge carriers gives rise to electroluminescence (EL), a central process for light-emitting diode (LED) operation. It is often presumed in some emerging fields of optoelectronics, including perovskite and organic LEDs, that the minimum voltage required for light emission is the semiconductor bandgap divided by the elementary charge. Here we show for many classes of LEDs, including those based on metal halide perovskite, organic, chalcogenide quantum-dot and commercial III-V semiconductors, photon emission can be generally observed at record-low driving voltages of 36%-60% of their bandgaps, corresponding to a large apparent energy gain of 0.6-1.4 eV per emitted photon. Importantly, for various classes of LEDs with very different modes of charge injection and recombination (dark saturation current densities ranging from ~10^-35 to ~10^-21 mA/cm2), their EL intensity-voltage curves under low voltages exhibit similar behaviors, revealing a universal origin of ultralow-voltage device operation. Finally, we demonstrate as a proof-of-concept that perovskite LEDs can transmit data efficiently to a silicon detector at 1V, a voltage below the silicon bandgap. Our work provides a fresh insight into the operational limits of electroluminescent diodes, highlighting the significant potential of integrating low-voltage LEDs with silicon electronics for next-generation communications and computational applications.
