Although organometal halide perovskites have garnered enormous interest in solar cells, scarce attention has been paid to light-emitting devices using formamidinium lead halide perovskite as the emitting layer. Highly luminescent and air-stable formamidinium lead halide perovskite quantum dots using high-melting-point ligands have been synthesized. Through compositional engineering, the emission spectra are readily tunable over the entire visible spectral region of 409− 817 nm. The photoluminescence of FAPbX 3 nanocrystals has narrow emission line widths of 21−34 nm, high quantum yields of up to 88%, and a photoluminescence lifetime of 54.6−68.6 ns for single halide FAPbBr 3 , which could be stable for several months. We have demonstrated the fabrication of highly efficient formamidinium lead halide perovskite quantum dot-based green-light-emitting diodes with a moderately high luminance of 33993 cd m −2 , current efficiency of 20.3 cd A −1 , and moderately high maximum external quantum efficiency of 4.07%.

Stable luminance properties are essential for light-emitting devices with excellent performance. Thermal photoluminescence (PL) quenching of quantum dots (QDs) under a high temperature resulting from a surface hole or electron traps will lead to unstable and dim brightness. After treating CdZnSe/ZnSe QDs with TBP, which is a well-known passivation reagent of the anions, the excess Se sites on the surface of the QDs were removed and their PL quantum yields (QYs) was improved remarkable. Furthermore, after TBP treatment, the CdZnSe/ZnSe QDs exhibit no quenching phenomena even at a high temperature of 310°C. The electroluminescent light-mitting diodes based on the QDs with TBP treatment also demonstrated satisfied performance with a maximum current density of 1679.6 mA/cm 2 , a peak luminance of 89500 cd/m 2 , and the maximum values of EQE and luminescence efficiency are 15% and 14.9 cd/A, respectively. The performance of the fabricated devices can be further improved providing much more in-depth studies on the CdZnSe/ZnSe QDs.
