a) E gap was determined from the intersection of the EQE edge and the local EQE maximum; b) V oc was calculated from the measured J-V curves; c) V oc rad was calculated from FTPS and EL measurements; d) EQE EL is the EL quantum efficiency of the fabricated devices; e) Exp. ΔE 3 is calculated with the Equation (ΔE 3 = −kTln(EQE EL )).
The toxicity of heavy-metal Pb and instability of lead-based halide perovskite nanomaterials are main factors to impede their practical applications in the fields of solar cells, LEDs and scintillators. In this paper, all inorganic lead-free cesium manganese halide nanocrystals are synthesized in glass for the first time. Red photoluminescence with broad PL band, negligible self-absorption and a high photoluminescence quantum yield of 41.8% is obtained. In addition, modulating halide component can change the Mn 2+ ions coordination environment to obtain tunable photoluminescence from red to green. More importantly, cesium manganese halide nanocrystals embedded glasses exhibit outstanding long-term stabilities. Theses cesium manganese halide nanocrystals embedded glasses are also highly stable against high energy irradiation and exhibit highly efficient radioluminescence, making them promising for high-resolution X-ray imaging. These results demonstrate that cesium manganese halide nanocrystals embedded glasses are promising eco-friendly candidates for applications in light-emitting diodes and scintillators.
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.
