The direct wet chemical synthesis of lead chalcogenide based 2D semiconductors, so-called nanoplatelets (NPLs), yields photoluminescent materials with strong excitonic effects at room temperature. [1,2,3] Here, we report a direct wet chemical approach [1] followed by a subsequent surface passivation step [2] toward bright colloidal PbSe NPLs with high emission efficiency. The NPLs exhibit excitonic features in the range of 800 - 1000 nm and photoluminescence in the range of 860 - 1510 nm, with the respective positions being seamlessly tunable by adjusting the NPLs lateral size via the reaction parameters. [2] Upon surface passivation with metal halides the NPLs exhibit a photoluminescence quantum yield of up to 60 % depending on the PL position as well as a reduced full width at half maximum of the photoluminescence by 10 %. [1] The enhanced optical properties are ascribed to a combined passivating role of both X- and Z-type binding halides and metal halides, providing an additional tool for tailoring the optical properties, colloidal stability and photostability of the PbSe NPLs. [1]
Efficient and narrow photoluminescence in the technologically desirable near-infrared and shortwave-infrared regions are vital requirements for single photon emission and applicability in quantum optics, rendering colloidal PbSe NPLs promising candidates compatible with integrated and fiber-based technology.
