One-Step Preparation of High-Stability CsPbX3/CsPb2X5 Composite Microplates with Tunable Emission.

The core-shell structure is an effective means to improve the stability and optoelectronic properties of cesium lead halide (CsPbX3 (X = Cl, Br, I)) perovskite quantum dots (QDs). However, confined by the ionic radius differences, developing a core-shell packaging strategy suitable for the entire CsPbX3 system remains a challenge. In this study, we introduce an optimized hot-injection method for the epitaxial growth of the CsPb2X5 substrate on CsPbX3 surfaces, achieved by precisely controlling the reaction time and the ratio of lead halide precursors. The synthesized CsPbX3/CsPb2X5 composite microplates exhibit an emission light spectrum that covers the entire visible range. Crystallographic analyses and density functional theory (DFT) calculations reveal a minimal lattice mismatch between the (002) plane of CsPb2X5 and the (11¯0) plane of CsPbX3, facilitating the formation of high-quality type-I heterojunctions. Furthermore, introducing Cl- and I- significantly alters the surface energy of CsPb2X5's (110) plane, leading to an evolutionary morphological shift of grains from circular to square microplates. Benefiting from the passivation of CsPb2X5, the composites exhibit enhanced optical properties and stability. Subsequently, the white light-emitting diode prepared using the CsPbX3/CsPb2X5 composite microplates has a high luminescence efficiency of 136.76 lm/W and the PL intensity decays by only 3.6% after 24 h of continuous operation.
