Shape and dimensionality control by ligands is an efficient way to fabricate high-quality perovskite nanocrystals (NCs) with optoelectronic properties. Herein, to realize oriented transformations between different morphologies of CsPbBr 3 nanocrystals, we conceived of the use of defects and bidentate ligands to synergistically drive the reorientation of CsPbBr 3 nanocrystals into CsPbBr 3 nanowires (NWs). By employing aminocaproic acid as the bidentate ligand, CsPbBr 3 NWs were reconstructed from the CsPbBr 3 NCs (∼7 nm) with 20−60 nm in width and several micrometers in length, as well as a 527 nm photoluminescence (PL) peak, 59% PL quantum yield, and 98.5 ns PL lifetime. The bidentate ligand-directed anisotropic shape evolution and growth of perovskite NWs from NCs was elucidated by transmission electronmicroscopy and PL studies. The photodetectors fabricated with the reconstructed CsPbBr 3 NWs displayed a photocurrent enhancement (2.75 × 10 −11 A) compared with that of the devices based on solution-synthesized NWs (2.28 × 10 −11 A). The device also showed a short response time, indicating its more sensitive photoelectric response. This process provides a viable approach to engineering diverse morphologies of perovskite nanocrystals for optoelectronic applications.
A new kind of autocatalytic phthalonitrile monomer (PN) containing siloxane segments and secondary amino groups (TSOP) was synthesized from bisphenol compound and 4-nitrophthalonitrile by using K2CO3 as catalyst. Bisphenol was...
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
