Multiple Phase Regulation Enables Efficient and Bright Quasi-2D Perovskite Light-Emitting Diodes.

Quasi-2D perovskites, multiquantum well materials with the energy cascade structure, exhibit impressive optoelectronic properties and a wide range of applications in various optoelectronic devices. However, the insufficient exciton energy transfer caused by the excess of small- phases that induce nonradiative recombination and the spatially random phase distribution that impedes charge transport severely inhibit the device performance of light-emitting diodes (LEDs). Here, a faster energy transfer process and efficient carrier recombination are achieved by introducing the multifunctional additive 2-(methylsulfonyl)-4-(trifluoromethyl)benzoic acid (MTA) to manipulate the crystallization process of perovskites. The introduction of MTA not only constrains the PEA and restrains the formation of small- phases to improve the energy transfer process but also optimizes the crystal orientation to promote charge transport. As a result, highly efficient pure green quasi-2D perovskite LEDs with a peak EQE of 25.9%, a peak current efficiency of 108.1 cd A, and a maximum luminance of 288798 cd m are achieved.
