Popis: We report a one-step synthesis of halide perovskite nanocrystals embedded in amphiphilic polymer (poly(acrylic acid)-block-poly(styrene), PAA-b-PS) micelles, based on injecting a dimethylformamide solution of PAA-b-PS, PbBr2, ABr (A = Cs, formamidinium, or both) and "additive" molecules in toluene. These bifunctional or trifunctional short chain organic molecules improve the nanocrystal-polymer compatibility, increasing the nanocrystal stability against polar solvents and high flux irradiation (the nanocrystals retain almost 80% of their photoluminescence after 1 h of 3.2 w/cm2 irradiation). If the nanocrystals are suspended in toluene, the coil state of the polymer allows the nanocrystals to undergo halide exchange, enabling emission color tunability. If the nanocrystals are suspended in methanol, or dried as powders, the polymer is in the globule state, and they are inert to halide exchange. By mixing three primary colors we could prepare stable, multicolor emissive samples (for example, white emitting powders) and a UV-to-white color converting layer for light-emitting diodes entirely made of perovskite nanocrystals.
