High-performance large-area quasi-2D perovskite light-emitting diodes.

Serious performance decline arose for perovskite light-emitting diodes (PeLEDs) once the active area was enlarged. Here we investigate the failure mechanism of the widespread active film fabrication method; and ascribe severe phase-segregation to be the reason. We thereby introduce L-Norvaline to construct a COO-coordinated intermediate phase with low formation enthalpy. The new intermediate phase changes the crystallization pathway, thereby suppressing the phase-segregation. Accordingly, high-quality large-area quasi-2D films with desirable properties are obtained. Based on this, we further rationally adjusted films' recombination kinetics. We reported a series of highly-efficient green quasi-2D PeLEDs with active areas of 9.0 cm. The peak EQE of 16.4% is achieved in  = 3, represent the most efficient large-area PeLEDs yet. Meanwhile, high brightness device with luminance up to 9.1 × 10 cd m has achieved in = 10 film.
