Recently, the low-temperature solution-processed metal-halide perovskites have demonstrated great potential in light harvesting applications. The light to electricity power conversion efficiency up to 23.25% has been achieved. The primary advantages of these lead based perovskites for solar cells are the large photon absorption coefficient, long-range balanced charge carrier diffusion lengths, low trap density, high charge carrier mobility, fast and efficient photo-generated exciton dissociation and slow electron-hole bimolecular recombination. Additional to these properties, the tunable optical direct bandgap over a wide range also makes these perovskites good candidates for using in light emission applications (Lasing & Electroluminescence). However, the relatively slow electron-hole bimolecular recombination in the traditional three-dimensional perovskites that drives their outstanding photovoltaic performance is a fundamental limitation for the light emission. Here, we show that the perovskite light emission efficiency could be greatly enhanced by tailoring the bimolecular-type recombination in three-dimensional crystals to excitonic-type recombination in low-dimensional crystals.
