Modulation of Charge Transport Layer for Perovskite Light‐Emitting Diodes

Abstract

Perovskite light‐emitting diodes (Pero‐LEDs) have garnered significant attention due to their exceptional emission characteristics, including narrow full width at half maximum, high color purity, and tunable emission colors. Recent efficiency and operational stability advancements have positioned Pero‐LEDs as a promising next‐generation display technology. Extensive research and review articles on the compositional engineering and defect passivation of perovskite layers have substantially contributed to the development of multi‐color and high‐efficiency Pero‐LEDs. However, the crucial aspect of charge transport layer (CTL) modulation in Pero‐LEDs remains relatively underexplored. CTL modulation not only impacts the charge carrier transport efficiency and injection balance but also plays a critical role in passivating the perovskite surface, blocking ion migration, enhancing perovskite crystallinity, and improving light extraction efficiency. Therefore, optimizing CTLs is pivotal for further enhancing Pero‐LED performance. Herein, this review discusses the roles of CTLs in Pero‐LEDs and categorizes both reported and potential CTL materials. Then, various CTL optimization strategies are presented, alongside an analysis of the selection criteria for CTLs in high‐performance Pero‐LEDs. Finally, a summary and outlook on the potential of CTL modulation to further advance Pero‐LED performances are provided.
