Dynamics in blue emitting metal halide perovskites for light emitting diodes by Karlsson, Max

“…Although the origins of the poor temporal stability of perovskite light emitting diodes are manifold, one of the main problems are the low barriers for halide migration under the applied electric field during operation, rapidly degrading the device properties. We first find that compositional heterogeneities, stemming from rapid uncontrolled film growth, both lowers the threshold for further halide segregation as well as serves as centers for non-radiative recombination, resulting in reduced luminescence yield. …”
