In the present work, we show that the moisture-induced degradation of CsPbBrI2 NCs spontaneously forms CsPbBr3 (α) and CsPbI3(δ) and other decomposition products. On the other hand, highly stable and luminescent red perovskite CsPbBrI2 NCs were achieved through copper substitution and halide rich passivation strategy. We demonstrated that the incorporation of Cu2+ ions can enhance formation energy, causing a slight lattice contraction, and hence stabilize the cubic phase of these NCs. Cu2+-substituted CsPbBrI2 NCs with higher luminescence were synthesized in a halide-rich passivation method. The highly stable and luminescent Cu2+-substituted CsPbBrI2 NCs can function well as efficient light emitters toward the fabrication of high-performance red perovskite LEDs.
