Perovskite nanocrystal superlattices: self-assembly, collective behavior, and applications

Chem Commun (Camb). 2023 May 2;59(36):5365-5374. doi: 10.1039/d2cc06534g.

Abstract

Metal halide perovskite nanocrystals (NCs) have been widely studied for application in photonics and optoelectronics due to their excellent photoelectric properties. Perovskite NCs with narrow luminescence linewidth and high photoluminescence quantum yield are excellent assembly modules for building large-scale NC superlattices. The coupling of optics and electricity in such excellent aggregates gives them exceptional collective photoelectric performance, such as superfluorescence, red-shifted emission, coupling-enhanced electron transport, etc. Perovskite NC superlattices are expected to become another hot research topic in optoelectronics. Here, we focus on the collective behavior of superlattices and review the recent progress of the self-assembly, collective photoelectric properties, and applications of perovskite NC superlattices. Finally, a few challenges and prospects are indicated.
