Encapsulated room-temperature synthesized CsPbX₃ perovskite quantum dots with high stability and wide color gamut for display

Abstract

Room temperature recrystallization is an intriguing method of fabricating CsPbX3 perovskite quantum dots since it does not involve high temperature or inert atmosphere, offering a promising route to the mass production of CsPbX3 quantum dots at low cost. However, their performance stability during work was seldom investigated and was far from the requirements for practical applications. Here, we demonstrate a facile and low-cost method to significantly improve the thermal, photo- and water stability of room-temperature synthesized perovskite quantum dots by effectively suppressing the unfavored grain growth and surface trap states. The fabricated quantum dots of green-emitting CsPbBr3 and red-emitting CsPbBr1.2I1.8 were applied for quantum dot-converted white LEDs, which are capable of achieving a wide color gamut of 135% NTSC and 101% Rec. 2020.
