Optimizing Carrier Balance in CsPbBr3 Nanocrystal LEDs: The Role of Alkyl Ligands and Polar Electron Transport Layers
Ligands are key to passivate the surface of CsPbBr3 nanocrystals, but not all are equally effective. Beyond the insulating nature of alkyl chains, the interaction between a ligand's anchoring group a...
