Revisiting the nontemplate approach for the synthesis of highly green emissive hybrid perovskite nanocrystals: platelets or spheres?

The long-standing debate about the morphology of colloidal methylammonium lead bromide perovskites nanocrystals, manufactured by our nontemplate synthetic strategy reported in 2014, is now resolved; specifically, the highest green emissive single nanoplatelets (of up to 93%) with long-term chemical and photochemical stability have been obtained after suitable purification steps.
