The low photoluminescence (PL) efficiency and unstable features of small blue-emitting CsPbX 3 nanocrystals (NCs) greatly limit their applications in optoelectronics field. Herein, the synergistic and post-treatment kinetics are studied to create highly bright and anomalous stable violet (peak position of ≈408 nm) and blue (peak position of ∼ 466 nm) emitting perovskite NCs. Ligand and ion exchange mechanism are systematic studied by the evolution of absorption, PL, and fluorescence lifetime to evaluate ligand bonding, defect engineering, and non-radiative recombination. Didodecyl dimethyl mmonium chloride (DDAC) and CuX 2 post-synergistic treatment created DDAC-CsPbCl 3 -CuCl 2 and DDAC-CsPbCl 3 -CuBr 2 NCs that remained the phase composition, morphology, and size of CsPbCl 3 NCs. The PL efficiencies are drastically increased to 42 and 85% for violet- and blue-emitting NCs, respectively. The stability test indicated that the NCs enable against various harsh conditions (e.g., ultraviolet light irradiation and heat-treatment). The NCs retained their initial PL efficiency after 2 months under ambient conditions and UV light irradiation. These NCs also exhibited high stability after heat-treatment at 120 °C. The emitting NCs embedded in flexible films still revealed bright PL and high stability, suggesting current results provide a new avenue for the application in the field of optoelectronics.

Microbiologically influenced corrosion (MIC) caused by sulfate reducing bacteria (SRB) is a serious challenge in many industries, but biofilm greatly decreases the toxicity of bactericides to cell inside. d-amino acids are potential enhancers for bactericides due to their excellent performance on biofilm inhibition. However, the mechanism of d-amino acid cooperating with bactericides for MIC inhibition is still unknown. In this study, d-tyrosine(D-Tyr)and disoctyl dimethyl ammonium chloride (DDAC) were selected as the typical d-amino acid and bactericide, respectively, to evaluate their synergetic inhibition on the corrosion caused by Desulfovibrio vulgaris . D-Tyr obviously enhanced the role of DDAC in inhibiting corrosion with high corrosion inhibition efficiency at 77.23 %. The attachment of EPS and live cells on the coupon surface decreased in the presence of D-Try, leading to more cells directly exposed to DDAC. Besides, D-Try decreased the amount of live cells on the surface and thus reduced the utilization of Fe by SRB and corrosion current. Moreover, dead cells settling to the coupon surface may form a protective lay to retard the contact between live SRB and Fe, leading to slow cathode reaction and less corrosion. Therefore, D-Tyr can reduce the coverage of biofilm, thereby reducing its protective effect on SRB and achieving better corrosion inhibition effect. This work provides a new strategy for improving bactericides and inhibiting MIC.
