Material Properties
Perovskite Structure: CsPbCl₃ crystallizes in a stable perovskite cubic phase at high temperatures, transitioning to an orthorhombic phase at room temperature.
Wide Bandgap Semiconductor: Exhibits a bandgap of ~3.0 eV, making it ideal for UV optoelectronic applications.
High Photoluminescence Quantum Yield (PLQY): Superior luminescence properties, making it suitable for light-emitting applications.
Excellent Stability: Compared to hybrid perovskites (e.g., MAPbCl₃), CsPbCl₃ offers enhanced thermal and chemical stability, making it more suitable for long-term applications.
Tunable Optical Properties: Bandgap engineering is possible through halide substitution, allowing for wavelength tunability in LEDs and optoelectronics.
Applications
