High efficiency perovskite LED based on fluoride interface

Dec22

    The external quantum efficiency of perovskite light-emitting diode (Peled) has exceeded 20%. However, visible perovskite LEDs are still affected by non radiative composite energy loss and carrier transport layer compatibility, so it is difficult to obtain high-performance devices reliably, which limits the further development of the field.

    Recently, Dawei Di and Zhao Baodan, together with the team of academician Richard friend of Cambridge University, reported the high    efficiency hybrid dimensional perovskite LED based on fluoride interface. Using ultra-thin (1 nm) lithium fluoride layer, the perovskite is crystallized on the incompatible high performance polymer semiconductor, which reduces the non radiative recombination loss of the device carrier transport layer interface. The external quantum efficiency of 19.1% was obtained at the brightness of > 1500 CD / m2, which created the efficiency record of green mixed dimension perovskite LED. This research provides a new idea for the preparation of high quality perovskite semiconductors and the integration of high performance devices. The results were published in Nature Electronics and selected as the cover paperBaodanZhao, Yaxiao Lian, Dawei Di*, Richard H.
