Abstract
Abstract Solution‐processed hybrid organic–inorganic perovskite light‐emitting transistors (PeLETs) suffer from low brightness and environmental instability induced by temperature‐activated trapping, ionic motion, and polarization effects, which so far have been hindering the realization of devices operating at room temperature. Here high quality thermally co‐evaporated methylammonium lead iodide perovskite films are employed to minimize ionic motion and significantly improve the electroluminescence characteristics of the perovskite active layer, enabling stable device operation up to ≈ 310 K. The demonstration of PeLETs operating at and beyond room‐temperature paves the way for practical applications in the rapidly evolving area of solid‐state lighting, active‐matrix displays, and visible light communications.
