Abstract

The present study systematically investigates the morphology and crystallization process of inorganic CsPbBr<sub>3</sub> perovskite layer films fabricated by thermal coevaporation in conjunction with continuous low-temperature thermal annealing to promote in situ dynamic thermal crystallization. The results confirm for the first time that both the crystal grain size and the compactness of the CsPbBr<sub>3</sub> films can be tuned during the thermal coevaporation fabrication process via in situ dynamic thermal crystallization. The performance of the PeLEDs employing the CsPbBr<sub>3</sub> films as the emitter layer is investigated in detail with respect to the substrate temperature and deposition rate employed during deposition of the CsPbBr<sub>3</sub> film. This study provides guidelines for developing suitable film production processes and highlights future challenges that must be addressed to facilitate the commercial development of large-area, uniform, and flexible perovskite-based optoelectronic devices.
