Abstract

Light-emitting diodes based on lead halide perovskite nanocrystals (LHP NCs) have shown an astonishing increase in efficiency in just several years of academic research, reaching high external quantum efficiencies exceeding 20%. The extensive color-tunability and narrow emission bandwidth of LHP NCs, in particular, are of great importance in the creation of the next generation of ultra-high-definition displays, as defined by the Rec. 2020 standard recommendation. In fact, whereas the colour of LHP NCs can be easily tuned by the compositions of halogens, the ion migration in mixed-halide perovskites under the electric field will seriously affect the spectral stability and operational lifetimes of perovskite light-emitting diodes (PeLEDs). Therefore, it is essential to realize efficient colour-saturated PeLEDs based on single-halide perovskite NCs. In this review, we focus on the recent progress in LHP NC-based PeLEDs and highlight the strategy of tuning the spectral emission based on quantum confinement or cation alloying/doping in single-halide perovskite NCs. Finally, we will give an outlook on future research avenues for preparing high-efficiency pure green, red and blue PeLEDs based on single-halide perovskite NCs.
