Multidimensional ABX hybrid perovskites three-dimensionally confined dot-shaped structure demonstrate versatile potential to photoelectrochemical cells for water splitting, hydrogen generation, solar cells, and light-emitting diodes. To apply perovskite quantum dots (PQDs) to solar-driven chemistry and optoelectronic devices, understanding the photoinduced charge carrier dynamics of PQDs under electrochemical conditions or applied bias are important. In this study, the detailed transformation mechanism of formamidinium lead iodide perovskite quantum dots under electrochemical conditions was studied by tracking the products of the reaction through cyclic voltammetry, X-ray photoemission spectroscopy, in-situ UV-visible spectroelectrochemistry, etc. Through comprehensive characterizations, the mechanism of irreversible oxidative transformation of perovskite quantum dots was presented. This study provides deeper insight into the electrochemical behavior of PQDs for successful solar-driven chemistry and optoelectronic device applications.

The separation and propagation of spin are vital to understanding spin-orbit coupling (SOC) in quantum systems. Exciton-polaritons, hybrid light-matter quasiparticles, offer a promising platform for investigating SOC in quantum fluids. By utilization of the optical anisotropy of materials, Rashba-Dresselhaus SOC (RDSOC) can be generated, enabling robust polariton spin transport.

However, this strategy has not been sufficiently characterized, for example, the application of cesium halide nanocrystals to quasi-2D perovskite structures is underexplored, and the mechanisms of the resulting structural modifications and specific nanocrystal roles are not fully understood. Herein, the effects of postsynthetically surface-modifying quasi-2D perovskite films with CsX ( = Cl, Br, I) nanocrystals are examined to bridge this gap.

Infrared photodetectors are crucial for autonomous driving, providing reliable object detection under challenging lighting conditions. However, conventional silicon-based devices are limited in their responsivity beyond 1100 nm. Here, a scallop-structured silicon photodetector integrated with tin-substituted perovskite quantum dots (PQDs) that effectively extends infrared detection is demonstrated.

Colloidal semiconductor quantum dots (QDs) can generate multiple excitons (MXs) within a single QD. Owing to their large absorption cross-section, efficient utilization of MX is anticipated for the development of light-harvesting systems. However, MXs typically undergo nonradiative decay via Auger recombination (AR).
