Short-chain ligand assisted synthesis of CH3NH3PbX3 (X = Cl, Br, I) perovskite quantum dots and improved morphology of CH3NH3PbBr3 thin films

Employing the short-chain C 4 H 9 NH 3 X (X = Cl, Br, I) compound as the unique capping agent, highly quality CH 3 NH 3 PbX 3 (X = Cl, Br, I) perovskite quantum dots can be synthesized at room temperature in the open air, which possess high photoluminescence quantum yields and tunable emission in the range of 440–660 nm. Besides, C 4 H 9 NH 3 Br can also improve the morphology of CH 3 NH 3 PbBr 3 thin films by spin-coating the N, N -dimerthylformamide solution of CH 3 NH 3 Br, C 4 H 9 NH 3 Br and PbBr 2 , making the thin film dense and compact, and improving its optical properties .
