Synthesis of lead halide perovskite nanocrystals by melt crystallization in halide salts†
Abstract
CsPbBr3 nanocrystals (NCs) are successfully prepared by using SrBr2 salt as a growth medium in a melt crystallization process. The obtained CsPbBr3 NCs exhibit a photoluminescence peak of 524 nm with a narrow emission linewidth of 25 nm, which can offer a wide color gamut display. This study can be extended to other alkali metal and alkali earth metal halides and may become a general method for the synthesis of perovskite NCs.
