Effect of Passivating Molecules and Antisolvents on Lifetime of Green Dion-Jacobson Perovskite Light-Emitting Diodes.

We investigated the influence of two passivating molecules containing a P═O group on the performance of quasi-2D Dion-Jacobson halide perovskite light-emitting diodes, namely, triphenylphosphine oxide (TPPO) and diphenyl-4-triphenylsilylphenyl phosphine oxide (TSPO1). We found that both passivating molecules lead to increased efficiency compared to control devices, while they had opposite effects on device lifetime, with a decrease observed for TPPO and an increase observed for TSPO1. The two passivating molecules resulted in differences in energy-level alignment, electron injection, film morphology and crystallinity, and ion migration during operation. While TPPO resulted in improved photoluminescence decay times, overall higher maximum external quantum efficiency (EQE) and device lifetime were obtained for TSPO1 compared to TPPO (14.4% vs 12.4% EQE, 341 min vs 42 min ).
