Metal halide perovskites (MHPs) have unique characteristics and hold great potential for next-generation optoelectronic technologies. Recently, the importance of lattice strain in MHPs has been gaining recognition as a significant optimization parameter for device performance. While the effect of strain on the fundamental properties of MHPs has been at the center of interest, its combined effect with an external electric field has been largely overlooked. Here we perform an electric-field-dependent photoluminescence study on heteroepitaxially strained surface-guided CsPbBr3 nanowires. We reveal an unexpected strong linear dependence of the photoluminescence intensity on the alternating field amplitude, stemming from an induced internal dipole. Using low-frequency polarized-Raman spectroscopy, we reveal structural modifications in the nanowires under an external field, associated with the observed polarity. These results reflect the important interplay between strain and an external field in MHPs and offer opportunities for the design of MHP-based optoelectronic nanodevices.

Abstract
Metal halide perovskites (MHPs) have unique characteristics and hold great potential for next-generation optoelectronic technologies. Recently, the importance of lattice strain in MHPs has been gaining recognition as a significant optimization parameter for device performance. While the effect of strain on the fundamental properties of MHPs has been at the center of interest, its combined effect with an external electric field has been largely overlooked. Here we perform an electric-field-dependent photoluminescence study on heteroepitaxially strained surface-guided CsPbBr3 nanowires. We reveal an unexpected strong linear dependence of the photoluminescence intensity on the alternating field amplitude, stemming from an induced internal dipole. Using low-frequency polarized-Raman spectroscopy, we reveal structural modifications in the nanowires under an external field, associated with the observed polarity. These results reflect the important interplay between strain and an external field in MHPs and offer opportunities for the design of MHP-based optoelectronic nanodevices.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
