Abstract
Abstract Metal halide perovskite nanocrystals (NCs) have emerged as an alternative to conventional phosphors for wide color gamut displays. However, the issues of poor stability and low emission efficiency of pure‐red CsPbBr x I 3‐x NCs set an obstacle to their practical application. Herein, the synergistic effect of Mn doping and mesoporous SiO 2 sealing is reported through in situ formation of Mn‐doped NCs into mesoporous SiO 2 nanospheres (MnNCs@SiO 2 ) to structurally and spatially stabilize the perovskite NCs for bright and stable pure‐red emitter. The large bonding energy of Mn‐halogen effectively suppresses the halide vacancy defects, prompting the highest photoluminescence quantum yield (PLQY) up to 84% (634 nm) among the pure‐red composite analogs. More importantly, the nanocrystal structure stability is fundamentally improved by the enhanced formation energy with Mn doping, together with the spatial isolation by SiO 2 nanospheres. The MnNCs@SiO 2 films exhibit impressive stabilities against high‐temperature heating, thermal cycle test, UV irradiation, water, and acid/alkali erosion, representing one of the most stable pure‐red perovskite emitters. By integrating fabricated all‐perovskite CsPbX3 single color conversion film into the liquid crystal display (LCD) modules, a wide color gamut of 128% of NTSC is achieved, enabling an excellent color rendition for high‐saturation object colors toward practical applications.
