The recent emerging progress of quantum dot ink (QD-ink) has overcome the complexity of multiple-step colloidal QD (CQD) film preparation and pronouncedly promoted the device performance. However, the detrimental hydroxyl (OH) ligands induced from synthesis procedure have not been completely removed. Here, a halide ligand additive strategy was devised to optimize QD-ink process. It simultaneously reduced sub-bandgap states and converted them into iodide-passivated surface, which increase carrier mobility of the QDs films and achieve thicker absorber with improved performances. The corresponding power conversion efficiency of this optimized device reached 10.78%. (The control device was 9.56%.) Therefore, this stratege can support as a candidate strategy to solve the QD original limitation caused by hydroxyl ligands, which is also compatible with other CQD-based optoelectronic devices.
量子点墨水(QD-ink)最近取得的进展克服了多步胶体量子点(CQD)薄膜制备的复杂性,并显著提升了器件性能。然而,合成过程中引入的有害羟基(OH)配体尚未被完全去除。在此,设计了一种卤化物配体添加剂策略来优化QD-ink工艺。该策略同时减少了子带隙态,并将它们转化为碘化物钝化表面,这提高了量子点薄膜的载流子迁移率,并实现了具有更好性能的更厚吸收层。这种优化器件的相应功率转换效率达到了10.78%。(对照器件为9.56%。)因此,该策略可作为解决由羟基配体导致的量子点原始局限性的候选策略,并且还与其他基于CQD的光电器件兼容。
