Enhanced performance of spectra stable blue perovskite light-emitting diodes through Poly(9-vinylcarbazole) interlayer incorporation

Since the emergence of organic-inorganic hybrid perovskites , the development of perovskite light-emitting diodes (PeLEDs) with green/red emission have made great progress, and the corresponding external quantum efficiency (EQE) has exceeded 20%. However, the research progress of blue-emitting PeLED still has certain challenges. In this article, a multi-cation per-bromine perovskite film is prepared by introducing polymer molecules poly(9-vinylcarbazole) (PVK) in an anti-solvent (chloroform). When the concentration of PVK is optimized to 0.1 mg/mL, a smooth, dense, high-quality film with photoluminescence quantum efficiency (PLQY) up to 20.70% is obtained. The introduction of PVK can assist the formation of perovskite films for interface modification via surface defect passivation . The optimized blue PeLED has a maximum brightness of 3136 cd/m 2 and a maximum EQE of 3.49% at 488 nm. More importantly, the optimized blue PeLED has excellent color stability under high applied voltage up to 12 V or continuous operation.
