Abstract:

Hybrid perovskite and all-inorganic perovskite have attracted much attentionin recent years owing to their successful use in the photovoltaic field.Usually the perovskite is used in its bulk form, although recently, perovskites’nanocrystalline form has received increased attention. Recent developmentsin the evolving research field of nanomaterial-based perovskite are reviewed.Both hybrid organic-inorganic and all-inorganic perovskite nanostructures arediscussed, as well as approaches to tune the optical properties by controllingthe size and shape of perovskite nanostructures. In addition, chemical modificationscan change the perovskite nanostructures’ band-gap, similar to theirbulk counterpart. Several applications, including light-emitting diodes, lasers,and detectors, demonstrate the latent potential of perovskite nanostructures.
