RT Journal Article T1 Ligand chemistry of inorganic lead halide perovskite nanocrystals A1 Fiuza Maneiro, Nadesh A1 Sun, Kun A1 López Fernández, Iago A1 Gomez Graña, Sergio A1 Müller Buschbaum, Peter A1 Polavarapu , Lakshminarayana K1 2307 Química Física K1 2210.04 Química de Coloides AB Lead halide perovskite nanocrystals (LHP NCs) have emerged as next-generation semiconductor materials with outstanding optical and optoelectronic properties. Because of the high surface-to-volume ratio, the optical and optoelectronic performance and the colloidal stability of LHP NCs largely depend on their surface chemistry, especially the ligands and surface termination. On one hand, the capping ligands improve the colloidal stability and luminescence; on the other hand the highly dynamic binding nature of ligands is detrimental to the colloidal stability and photoluminescence of LHP NCs. In addition, the surface functionalization with desired molecules induces new functionalities such as chirality, light harvesting, and triplet sensitization through energy/electron transfer or use as X-ray detectors. In this review, we present the current understanding of an atomic view of the surface chemistry of colloidal LHP NCs, including crystal termination, vacancies, and different types of capping ligands. Furthermore, we discuss the ligand-induced functionalities, including photocatalysis and chirality.
