Abstract

Lead halide perovskite nanocrystals (NCs) are promising for applications in light emitting devices owing to a strong emission spectrum that is tunable throughout the visible region by altering halide composition. However, in mixed-halide perovskite systems photoinduced migration drives formation of halide-segregated domains, altering the emission spectrum. The mechanism by which this segregation occurs is currently the subject of intense investigation. Processes involving the perovskite surface are expected to be of enhanced prevalence in NCs due to their large surface area to volume ratio. In this work, we use transient absorption spectroscopy to probe the excited-state dynamics of NCs before and after halide segregation. Comparison of global fit spectra of the measured signals suggests the accumulation of iodide at the surface, resulting in a redshifted emission spectrum.
