Abstract
Circularly polarized light (CPL) is a crucial light source with a wide variety of potential applications such as magnetic recording, and 3D display. Here, core-shell heterostructured perovskite quantum dots (QDs) for room-temperature spin-polarized light-emitting diodes (spin-LEDs) are developed. Specifically, a 2D chiral perovskite shell is deposited onto the achiral 3D inorganic perovskite (CsPbBr<sub>3</sub> ) core. Owing to the chiral-induced spin selectivity effect, the spin state of the injected charge carriers is biased when they are transmitted through the 2D chiral shell. The spin-controlled carriers then radiatively recombine inside the CsPbBr<sub>3</sub> emissive core, resulting in CPL emission. It is demonstrated that the (R)- and (S)-1-(2-(naphthyl)ethylamine) (R-/S-NEA) 2D chiral cations enhance the spin polarization degree due to their strong chiroptical properties. Systematical defect analyses confirm that 2D chiral cations (i.e., R-/S-NEA) successfully passivate halide vacancies at the surface of the CsPbBr<sub>3</sub> QDs, thereby attaining a high photoluminescence quantum yield of 78%. Moreover, the spin-LEDs prepared with core-shell QDs achieve a maximum external quantum efficiency of 5.47% and circularly polarized electroluminescence with a polarization degree (P<sub>CP-EL</sub> ) of 12% at room temperature. Finally, various patterns fabricated by inkjet printing the core-shell QDs emit strong CPL, highlighting their potential as an emitter for next-generation displays.
