Photoluminescence Enhancement in Perovskite Nanocrystals via Compositional, Ligand, and Surface Engineering

초록

Perovskite nanocrystals (PeNCs) have attracted considerable interest as promising materials for next-generation optoelectronic devices owing to their high photoluminescence quantum yield, narrow emission linewidths, simple composition tunability, and solution processability. However, the practical applicability of these NCs is limited by their compositional, thermal, and environmental instabilities, which compromise their long-term operational performance and reliability. Compositional instability arises from ion migration and phase segregation, leading to spectral shifts and unstable emission. Thermal degradation is driven by volatile organic cations and weak surface bonding, while environmental factors such as moisture, oxygen, and ultraviolet irradiation promote defect formation and material degradation. This review describes the recent advances in improving the photoluminescent stability of PeNCs through compositional engineering (A-/B-site substitution), ligand engineering (X-/L-type modulation), and surface passivation strategies. These approaches effectively suppress degradation pathways while maintaining or improving the optical properties of PeNCs. By performing a comparative analysis of these strategies, this review provides guidelines for the rational design of stable and efficient PeNCs for light-emitting applications.
