Abstract:

The CsPbBr3@Cs4PbBr6 nanocrystals (NCs) could be synthesized by multiple Cs-oleate injections as adding the 1,9-dibromnonane in the reaction solution. The 1,9-dibromnonane could provide Br- ions and the rich Br- ions effectively restrain the generation of CsBr. The Cs4PbBr6 wrapped around the CsPbBr3 NCs and the size of crystalline grain was increased with increasing the Cs-oleate as excess oleylamine. The quantum yield for 14S4DN reached to 99.3 % due to the decrease of defects and the surface passivation of Cs4PbBr6. There are more oleylammonium bromide on the surface of CsPbBr3 NCs as synthesized with 1,9-dibromnonane. The ligand shell and the surface passivation of Cs4PbBr6 restrained the decomposition of surface, consequently improved the stability of moisture and light for CsPbBr3 NCs. When the CsPbBr3@Cs4PbBr6 NCs were immersed in water under UV light (365 nm) for 2 h, the PL intensity could retain 90.4 %, while the 11S1 (traditional CsPbBr3 NCs) was only 10.9 %. It indicated the stability of moisture and light for CsPbBr3 NCs were greatly improved, because Cs4PbBr6 NCs effectively passivated the surface of CsPbBr3 NCs and restrained the generation of traps states.
