This study reports the development of highly emissive perovskite films featuring ordered three-dimensional/two-dimensional (3D/2D) stacked heterostructures, achieved through bottom interfacial chemical coordination engineering. The resulting perovskite light-emitting diodes (PeLEDs) exhibit a peak external quantum efficiency (EQE) of 42.9% (certified at 42.3%), establishing a critical theoretical foundation for the advancement of high-performance perovskite-based display technologies.
In recent years, perovskite LEDs have emerged as promising candidates for next-generation lighting and display technologies due to their exceptional color purity, high efficiency, low cost, and solution processability. However, their performance still lags behind that of organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs), which have surpassed 40% efficiency. This limitation primarily arises from constrained carrier transport and severe interfacial non-radiative recombination, which significantly impede device performance. Consequently, leveraging two-dimensional perovskites to balance carrier transport and suppress non-radiative recombination has become a key research focus and challenge in the fabrication of high-efficiency perovskite LEDs.
In this work, the authors demonstrate that hydroxyl-rich polyethylenimine ethoxylated (PEIE) molecules can be used to create reactive sites on the substrate surface, enabling the one-step growth of perovskite films with ordered 3D/2D stacked heterostructures. The top 2D perovskite layer balances carrier injection and protects the emissive 3D perovskite domains, thereby substantially reducing non-radiative recombination. In addition, the spontaneously formed wrinkled surface morphology further enhances light outcoupling efficiency. As a result, the perovskite thin film achieves a photoluminescence quantum yield (PLQY) of 97%, and the electroluminescence efficiency of the PeLEDs exceeds 40% for the first time. This study offers new insights and strategies for the continued advancement of perovskite LEDs.
