Robust CsPbX3 (X = Cl, Br, and I) perovskite quantum dot embedded glasses: nanocrystallization, improved stability and visible full-spectral tunable emissions

Currently, all inorganic perovskite quantum dots (QDs) of cesium lead halides (CsPbX3, X = Cl, Br, and I) have been mainly fabricated using wet chemical methods. Unfortunately, applications of perovskite QDs have been limited due to their poor stability. In the present work, the in situ growth of whole-family CsPbX3 (X = Cl, Br, and I) perovskite QDs in Zn-P-B-Sb based oxide glass via a glass crystallization strategy is reported. The as-prepared CsPbX3 QDs@glass nanocomposites exhibit typical excitonic recombination emissions and superior chemical stability benefited from the protection of the robust inorganic glass matrix. Through modifying the molar ratio of halide sources in glass, multi-color tunable emissions in the entire visible spectral range of 400-750 nm are achieved. As a result, light-emitting diode devices can be constructed by coupling blue-emissive CsPbBrCl2, green-emissive CsPbBr3 and red-emissive CsPbBr0.5I2.5 QDs@glass powders with a commercial ultraviolet chip, yielding bright white light luminescence with excellent optoelectronic performance.
