devised a hot-injection synthesis to prepare colloidal double-perovskite
Cs2NaBiCl6 nanocrystals (NCs). We also examined
the effects of replacing Na+ with Ag+ cations
by preparing and characterizing Cs2Na1–xAgxBiCl6 alloy
NCs with x ranging from 0 to 1. Whereas Cs2NaBiCl6 NCs were not emissive, Cs2Na1–xAgxBiCl6 NCs
featured a broad photoluminescence band at ∼690 nm, Stokes-shifted
from the respective absorption by ≥1.5 eV. The emission efficiency
was maximized for low Ag+ amounts, reaching ∼3%
for the Cs2Na0.95Ag0.05BiCl6 composition. Density functional theory calculations coupled with
spectroscopic investigations revealed that Cs2Na1–xAgxBiCl6 NCs
are characterized by a complex photophysics stemming from the interplay
of (i) radiative recombination via trapped excitons localized in spatially
connected AgCl6–BiCl6 octahedra; (ii)
surface traps, located on undercoordinated surface Bi centers, behaving
as phonon-assisted nonradiative decay channels; and (iii) a thermal
equilibrium between trapping and detrapping processes. These results
offer insights into developing double-perovskite NCs with enhanced
optoelectronic efficiency.
