All-Solution-Processed Perovskite Quantum Dots Light-Emitting Diodes Based on the Solvent Engineering Strategy.

Perovskite quantum dots (PeQDs) have emerged as a new kind of nanomaterial in various applications, especially light-emitting diodes (LEDs). However, the synthesis of PeQDs is relatively complicated and the electron transport layer (ETL) is usually fabricated in a vacuum because of the dissolution of PeQDs films in organic solvents, which will increase the difficulty and cost in mass production. Here, a simple one-step "ultrasonic bath" treatment to synthesis PeQDs is adopted and applied into the PeQDs-LEDs. Meanwhile, an all-solution process is developed to fabricate PeQDs-LEDs based on the solvent engineering strategy. By using methyl acetate (MeOAc) as the solvent of ETL, the all-solution-processed PeQDs-LEDs exhibit bright luminance with the maximum current efficiency of 3.26 cd/A. This work is simple and easy to be scaled up, which will pave a new way to the low-cost all-solution processable PeQDs-LEDs.
