Researchers from China's Beihang University, Beijing Institute of Technology, Chinese Academy of Sciences and Zhijing Nanotech (Beijing) have reported the spray-drying fabrication of perovskite quantum dot (PQD) microspheres from a precursor solution at a scale of 2000 kg∙a⁻¹. 

The obtained PQDs were embedded in polymer microspheres, resulting in a high photoluminescence quantum yield and enhanced stability. By controlling the precursor concentration, the average size of the polymer microspheres can be tuned from 41 to 0.44 μm. The as-prepared PQD-embedded polymer microspheres were mixed with ultraviolet adhesive to fabricate PQD-enhanced optical films for liquid crystal display (LCD) backlights. 

Miniaturizing LEDs is crucial for creating ultra-high-resolution displays. Metal-halide perovskites show potential for efficient light emission, long-distance carrier transport, and scalable production of bright micro-LED displays. However, current thin-film perovskites face issues with uneven light emission and surface instability during lithography, making them unsuitable for micro-LED devices. There's a strong need for continuous single-crystal perovskite films with minimal grain boundaries, stable surfaces, and uniform optical properties for micro-LEDs. Yet, growing these films and integrating them into devices remains a challenge.

Recently, researchers from the Chinese Academy of Sciences, University of Science and Technology of China and Jilin University made significant progress in this field. The team developed a novel method for the remote epitaxial growth of continuous crystalline perovskite thin films, that allows for seamless integration into ultrahigh-resolution micro-LEDs with pixels less than 5 μm.

Researchers from Zhejiang University, LinkZill Technology, Jilin University, and Linköping University have found that the electroluminescence rise time of perovskite LEDs (PeLEDs) can be reduced to microseconds using an individual-particle passivation strategy. This addresses a known issue with PeLEDs, that tend to have electroluminescence rise times over milliseconds due to ion migration in crystal structure, which is problematic for the development of high-refresh-rate displays.

The team demonstrated a second-generation digital display screen that uses perovskite light-emitting diodes instead of standard LED technology. In their study, the group made improvements to the device and demonstrated its sensing capability.

A few months ago, Helio Display Materials, a developer of perovskite-based color conversion materials for displays, announced that it entered into a strategic partnership with Haylo Ventures, a venture operator specializing in accelerating the commercialization of deep tech. 

This collaboration targets micro displays for AR/VR headsets, signifying a pivotal shift in Helio's strategic direction.

Researchers at China's Shanghai University, Jilin University, University of Science and Technology of China, Chinese Academy of Sciences, Korea's Pohang University of Science and Technology (POSTECH) and UK's University of Cambridge have reported efficient and color-stable perovskite LEDs (PeLEDs) across the entire pure-red region, with a peak external quantum efficiency reaching 28.7% at 638 nm, enabled by incorporating a double-end anchored ligand molecule into pure-iodine perovskites.

Light-emitting diodes (LEDs) based on metal halide perovskites (PeLEDs) with high color quality and facile solution processing are promising candidates for full-color and high-definition displays. However, the team explained that despite the great success achieved in green PeLEDs with lead bromide perovskites, it is still challenging to realize pure-red (620–650 nm) LEDs using iodine-based counterparts, as they are constrained by the low intrinsic bandgap.

Researchers at China's Shanghai University, Southern University of Science and Technology, The University of Hong Kong, Yunnan University, Beijing Institute of Technology and Japan's Yamagata University have developed a stable, efficient and high-color purity hybrid light-emitting diodes (LEDs) with a tandem structure, by combining perovskite LED and commercial organic LED technologies.

Perovskite-based LED technology can have tunable emission wavelength in visible light range as well as narrow linewidth, which makes it a promising contender among current light-emitting display technologies. However, it still suffers from severe instability driven by electric field. The research team in this work set out to tackle this challenge, by developing a method to create efficient and stable hybrid perovskite-organic light-emitting diodes.

Researchers at City University of Hong Kong (CityU) have presented a novel material design strategy and simple device-manufacturing process for skin-conformable perovskite-based alternating-current electroluminescent (PeACEL) devices.

These devices exhibit a narrow emission bandwidth (full-width at half-maximum, <37 nm), continuously tunable emission wavelength (468–694 nm), high stretchability (400%) and adequate luminance (>200 cd m−2). 

Micro-LED (also known as mLED or µLED) is a display technology based on miniature LED devices that are used to directly create color pixels. Micro-LED displays are highly promising and have the potential to create efficient and great looking flexible displays, which could challenge even the most impressive high-end OLED displays. Micro LEDs are attracting significant attention as next-generation displays owing to their desirable characteristics such as low power consumption, high contrast ratio, high brightness, fast response speed, and long life span.

Perovskite materials can benefit the MicroLED industry in two ways: as materials for color conversion (using perovskite-based QDs) and in perovskite-based LED emitters. Much R&D work is taking place on both these fronts, and interest seems to be growing.
