Metal halide perovskite nanocrystals can exhibit excellent light-emission properties, but their use in functional films is challenging due to aggregation and instability issues. By using a metal-organic host matrix based on a sol-gel approach, controlled in situ crystallization of perovskite nanocrystals can be achieved, leading to high-performance nanocomposite thin films. The crystallization dynamics can be adjusted by ambient exposure and precursor concentration, allowing for fine-tuning of nanoparticle size and emission properties.
Metal halide perovskite nanocrystals can display excellent light -emission properties, leveraging the chemical versatility of this fam-ily of materials. However, using these features in functional films is an elusive task due to aggregation and material-instability prob-lems. Using a metal-organic host matrix based on a sol-gel approach allows for a controlled in situ crystallization of perovskite nanocrys-tals with extremely low-demanding fabrication methods. As a result, this ambient annealing-free process generates high-performance nanocomposite thin films with photoluminescence quantum yield (PLQY) > 80% with outstanding ambient and mechanical stability. The crystallization dynamics determining the final nanoparticle size, and thus the emission properties, can be adjusted in detail through the ambient exposure and precursor concentration.
