Cesium lead halide perovskite nanocrystals of general formula CsPbX3 are having tremendous impact on a vast array of technologies requiring strong and tunable luminescence across the visible range and solutions processing.

Abstract

Cesium lead halide perovskite nanocrystals of general formula CsPbX3 are having tremendous impact on a vast array of technologies requiring strong and tunable luminescence across the visible range and solutions processing. The development of plastic scintillators is just one of the many relevant applications. The syntheses are relatively simple but generally unsuitable to produce a large amount of material of reproducible quality required when moving from proof-of-concept scale to industrial applications. Wastes, particularly large amounts of lead-contaminated toxic and flammable organic solvents, are also an open issue. We describe a simple and reproducible procedure enabling the synthesis of luminescent CsPbX3 nanobricks of constant quality on a scale going from 0.12 to 8 g in a single batch. We also show complete recycling of the reaction wastes, leading to dramatically improved efficiency and sustainability.
