Circularly polarized luminescence (CPL) with polychromatic colors has been widely studied due to its great applications in chiroptical, optoelectronics, and spintronics. However, the realization of white CPL in single-component solid-state materials remains a great challenge and suffers from the incompatibility between high efficient luminescence and large asymmetric discrimination. Here, by exploiting self-trapped exciton mechanism and chirality induction strategy, a pair of 1D chiral perovskites, (RR/SS-DMPZ)PbBr4 (where DMPZ = cis-2,5-dimethylpiperazine divalent cation), is reported to achieve white CPL with both high quantum yield of 28.4% and large photoluminescence asymmetry factor |glum| of 2.32 × 10−2. The crystal structures are featured by 1D double-chain structure composed of distorted octahedra with short Pb-Pb distances as the structural origin of the high photoluminescence yield. The high |glum| value is caused by efficient chiral induction due to the multiple hydrogen bonds between the chiral host composed of the enantiopure organic cations containing two stereocenters and the inorganic emitting guest. The self-trapped exciton emission mechanism is demonstrated by density functional theory calculations and variable-temperature photoluminescence and femtosecond-transient absorption spectroscopy studies. The photo-luminescent white light-emitting diodes exhibit good stability and can be used as single-component white light emitters. This work provides applicable strategies to explore single-component white CPL emitters.

Abstract

Circularly polarized luminescence (CPL) with polychromatic colors has been widely studied due to its great applications in chiroptical, optoelectronics, and spintronics. However, the realization of white CPL in single-component solid-state materials remains a great challenge and suffers from the incompatibility between high efficient luminescence and large asymmetric discrimination. Here, by exploiting self-trapped exciton mechanism and chirality induction strategy, a pair of 1D chiral perovskites, (RR/SS-DMPZ)PbBr4 (where DMPZ = cis-2,5-dimethylpiperazine divalent cation), is reported to achieve white CPL with both high quantum yield of 28.4% and large photoluminescence asymmetry factor |glum| of 2.32 × 10−2. The crystal structures are featured by 1D double-chain structure composed of distorted octahedra with short Pb-Pb distances as the structural origin of the high photoluminescence yield. The high |glum| value is caused by efficient chiral induction due to the multiple hydrogen bonds between the chiral host composed of the enantiopure organic cations containing two stereocenters and the inorganic emitting guest. The self-trapped exciton emission mechanism is demonstrated by density functional theory calculations and variable-temperature photoluminescence and femtosecond-transient absorption spectroscopy studies. The photo-luminescent white light-emitting diodes exhibit good stability and can be used as single-component white light emitters. This work provides applicable strategies to explore single-component white CPL emitters.
