Efficient Quasi-Two-Dimensional Perovskite Light-Emitting Diodes Achieved through the Passivation of Multi-Fluorine Phosphate Molecules

The surface morphology of perovskite films significantly influences the performance of perovskite light-emitting diodes (PeLEDs). However, the thin perovskite thickness (~10 nm) results in low surface coverage on the substrate, limiting the improvement of photoelectric performance. Here, we propose a molecular additive strategy that employs pentafluorophenyl diphenylphosphinate (FDPP) molecules as additives. P=O and Pentafluorophenyl (5F) on FDPP can coordinate with Pb2+ to slow the crystallization process of perovskite and enhance surface coverage. Moreover, FDPP reduces the defect density of perovskite and enhances the crystalline quality. The maximum brightness, power efficiency (PE), and external quantum efficiency (EQE) of the optimal device reached 24,230 cd m−2, 82.73 lm W−1, and 21.06%, respectively. The device maintains an EQE of 19.79% at 1000 cd m−2 and the stability is further enhanced. This study further extends the applicability of P=O-based additives.
