Electrochemically Quantifying the Phase Transition of Cesium Lead Halide Perovskite Quantum Dots in Purification

Le résumé fourni par la source

A good purification strategy for obtaining high-quality and low-cost perovskite QDs ink requires a complete removal of the impurities but with a minimal phase transition of QDs from the perovskite phases to the nonperovskite δ-phase. This pioneering work reports the electrochemical quantification on the phase transition level of CsPbI 3 QDs in purification. Cyclic voltammetry of the purified QDs evidenced the formation of a new product in the purification process, which was demonstrated to be the undesired nonperovskite δ-phase by independent structural analysis. The developed electrochemical methodology further enabled the quantification of the extent of the phase transition of the QDs purified using different strategies by simply analyzing the charge associated with the relevant peaks and allowing optimization of the purification. The latter is of vital importance for commercialization and is an essential step for boosting their device performance.
