RT Journal Article T1 Defect passivation in lead‐halide Perovskite nanocrystals and thin films: toward efficient LEDs and solar cells A1 Ye, Junzhi A1 Byranvand, Mahdi Malekshahi A1 Otero Martinez, Clara A1 Hoye, Robert L.

A1 Saliba, Michael A1 Polavarapu , Lakshminarayana K1 2307 Química Física K1 2203 Electrónica AB Lead-halide perovskites (LHPs), in the form of both colloidal nanocrystals (NCs) and thin films, have emerged over the past decade as leading candidates for next-generation, efficient light-emitting diodes (LEDs) and solar cells. Owing to their high photoluminescence quantum yields (PLQYs), LHPs efficiently convert injected charge carriers into light and vice versa. However, despite the defect-tolerance of LHPs, defects at the surface of colloidal NCs and grain boundaries in thin films play a critical role in charge-carrier transport and nonradiative recombination, which lowers the PLQYs, device efficiency, and stability. Therefore, understanding the defects that play a key role in limiting performance, and developing effective passivation routes are critical for achieving advances in performance. This Review presents the current understanding of defects in halide perovskites and their influence on the optical and charge-carrier transport properties. Passivation strategies toward improving the efficiencies of perovskite-based LEDs and solar cells are also discussed PB Angewandte Chemie International Edition SN 14337851 YR 2021 FD 2021-03-17 LK http://hdl.handle.net/11093/3214 UL http://hdl.handle.net/11093/3214 LA eng NO Angewandte Chemie International Edition, 60(40): 21636-21660 (2021) NO Ministerio de Ciencia e Innovación | Ref.
