Wide range tuning of the size and emission color of CH3NH3PbBr3 quantum dots by surface ligands

Organic-inorganic halide perovskite CH3NH3PbX3 (X= I, Br, Cl) quantum dots (QDs) possess the characters of easy solution-process, high luminescence yield, and unique size-dependent optical properties. In this work, we have improved the nonaqueous emulsion method to synt...
