- Abstract
Chiral hybrid metal halides with high photoluminescence quantum yield (PLQY) and superior dissymmetry factor (g
lum ) are promising candidates for circularly polarized luminescence (CPL) emitting sources. However, it is a great challenge to achieve both high glum and large PLQY. Here, we report a new supramolecular strategy to fabricate chiral hybrid Cu(I)-halides with near-unity quantum yields and intense CPL emissions. The dissymmetry factor can be dramatically modulated by tuning the host-guest complexations. Attributing to the chirality and variable conformations of the host-guest complexes, a series of chiral [G@LR/S ]2 Cu4 I6 have been prepared. The incorporation of different cations within the chiral LR/S hosts leads to variations of packing modes along the c-axis and different extent of distortions in the [Cu4 I6 ]2− polyhedra. Among them, [H3 O@LR/S ]+ cations are stacked based on Van der Waals interactions and hierarchically self-assemble into a right/left-handed helix in [H3 O@LR/S ]2 Cu4 I6 , which results in a high glum of −7×10−3 and a large PLQY of 96.92%. Notably, [G@LR/S ]2 Cu4 I6 shows promising applications in single-component white light emitting diodes (WLEDs), exhibiting a maximum dissymmetry factor of −1.2×10−3 . The effective host-guest complexation and oriented hierarchical self-assembly provide an effective strategy for the development of high-performance CPL materials. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]- Published
