Abstract

Abstract: Highly luminescent CH3 NH3 PbBr3 perovskite nanocrystals (PeNCs) with a high photoluminescence quantum yield value of 80% are prepared by a forced thin film reactor for continuous production. In this system, the rotating and stationary disks form a confined micro space which demonstrates a unique mixing process through continuous injection of solvents. We found that the unique mixing system leads to colloidal PeNCs with 4 nm–10 nm, which are much smaller than those of a representative T-junction system (15 nm–65 nm). It suggests that a confined micro space is effective for the capping of n-octylamine to the surface of PeNCs, resulting in suppression of the aggregation of the PeNCs and crystal growth. Also, with increasing flow velocity, the optical properties show almost no fluctuation. This system is a promising continuous system to prepare colloidal PeNCs, and can provide a synthetic protocol to be applied for light-emitting diodes as well as various other optoelectronic devices.
