Providing a Review of Hot Carrier (HC) Relaxation Dynamics and Strategies of HC Extraction in Perovskites Nanocrystals

Abstract

AbstractMetal halide perovskite (MHPs) nanocrystals (NCs) have recently emerged as promising materials for optoelectronic applications due to their exceptional photophysical properties. A comprehensive understanding of the underlying principles and key challenges associated with controlling the hot carrier (HC) cooling dynamics in MHPs is pivotal for the design of efficient perovskite‐based optoelectronic applications. This review highlights the general carrier cooling mechanism and identifies influencing crucial controlling parameters for carrier dynamics. The discussion includes strategies for manipulating HC cooling dynamics through carrier‐phonon and carrier‐carrier interactions. Notably, recent advancements in HC extraction with suitable acceptors are explored, as efficient HC extraction is imperative for the advancement of optoelectronic applications. The objective of this review is to outline potential pathways for strategically modifying carrier cooling processes to align with specific optoelectronic applications. A profound comprehension of charge carrier dynamics in MHPs NCs will pave the way for the development of highly efficient optoelectronic applications.
