Abstract
Lead-free halide double perovskite nanocrystals (DPNCs) are emerging materials, recently explored as potential candidates in light-emitting, photovoltaic, and other optoelectronic applications. This Letter reveals unusual photophysical phenomena and nonlinear optical (NLO) properties of Mn-doped Cs2AgInCl6 nanocrystals (NCs) via temperature-dependent photoluminescence (PL) and femtosecond Z-scan measurements. The PL emission measurements suggest that self-trapped excitons (STEs) are present, and more than one STE state is possible for this doped double perovskite. We observed enhanced NLO coefficients, owing to the improved crystallinity arising from the Mn doping. From the closed aperture Z-scan data, we have calculated two fundamental parameters, Kane energy (29 eV) and exciton reduced mass (0.22m0). We further obtained the optical limiting onset (1.84 mJ/cm2) and figure of merit as a proof-of-concept application to demonstrate the potential in optical limiting and optical switching applications. Highlighting the self-trapped excitonic emission and NLO applications, the multifunctionality of this material system is demonstrated. This investigation provides an avenue to design novel photonic and nonlinear optoelectronic devices.
