[0002] Metal halide perovskite is a promising semiconductor material with advantages such as strong bandgap tunability and long carrier lifetime, so it can be used to prepare high-performance optoelectronic devices such as solar cells, light-emitting diodes, field-effect transistors, lasers and photodetectors. Compared with polycrystalline perovskites, single-crystal perovskites have orders of magnitude lower defect density suppression capabilities, significantly improved carrier mobility, and are easy to prepare high-performance optoelectronic devices.
[0003] Epitaxy is a technique for growing single-crystalline thin films by lattice matching and plays an important role in the semiconductor industry. Nowadays, epitaxy strategies have been introduced into the perovskite system to grow single-crystalline thin films for device applications. However, previous methods such as liquid-phase processed homoepitaxy, van der Waals epitaxy, and atomic heteroepitaxy are limited by moderate grain sizes and / or unavoidable material damage during the transfer process.
[0004] Therefore, there is an urgent need to provide a new epitaxial growth method for single-crystal single-domain perovskite films. Summary of the invention

[0117] The rest of the preparation methods and parameters were the same as those in Example 1.
[0118] Comparative Example 1
[0119] The difference between this comparative example and Example 1 is that in step (2), the CsPbBr3 perovskite powder and the sapphire substrate covered with a single-molecule graphene film are placed in the same heating source area.
[0120] The rest of the preparation methods and parameters were the same as those in Example 1.
[0121] Comparative Example 2
[0122] This comparative example provides a method for preparing a perovskite film, and the preparation method comprises the following steps:
[0123] (1) dissolving perovskite in DMSO solvent to prepare a saturated solution;
[0124] (2) dropping the saturated solution onto the surface of a clean substrate, and then covering the clean substrate to obtain an assembled structure;
[0125] (3) placing the assembled structure in an oven at 45° C. to volatilize the solvent, so that the solution is supersaturated and crystallized. After the solvent is completely evaporated, the two substrates are disassembled to obtain a perovskite film.
[0126] Performance Testing
[0127] The perovskite light-emitting diode is prepared based on the perovskite film provided in the above-mentioned embodiments 1, 3-4, 6-7 and comparative examples 1-2, and the specific steps include:
[0128] (I) The PEDOT:PSS solution was spin-coated on a clean ITO glass at a rate of 4000 rpm for 60 s, and then annealed at 150 °C for 30 min to prepare a hole transport layer PEDOT:PSS;
[0129] (ⅠⅠ) The independent perovskite film provided in the above embodiment and comparative example is transferred to the hole transport layer, and then 35nm of electron transport layer TPBi and 100nm of metal electrode Al are sequentially evaporated on the surface of the perovskite film to obtain a perovskite light-emitting diode.
[0130] The photoelectric performance of the above-mentioned perovskite light-emitting diode was tested, and the testing method was as follows:
[0131] The electroluminescence efficiency measurement system of Xipu Optoelectronics was used to measure the electroluminescence efficiency (EQE), brightness and emission wavelength (the effective area of the test was 3mm 2 , temperature 25℃).
[0132] The test results are shown in Table 1.

[0136] analyze:
[0137] As can be seen from the above table, the remote epitaxial growth method provided by the present invention produces a single-crystal single-domain thin film that is free of grain boundaries, high-quality and losslessly transferable, has single-crystal-level flatness, sub-wavelength thickness and large-area uniform luminescence characteristics, which is conducive to its integrated integration with nanophotonic structures (such as resonant metasurfaces and photonic crystals), thereby achieving the enhancement of "interaction between light and matter" and the manipulation of multiple luminescence dimensions such as direction, polarization, phase and orbital angular momentum.
[0138] By comparing Example 1 with Example 4, it can be seen that the use of gradient temperature control is helpful to fully heat the perovskite powder, while accurately controlling the nucleation and growth rates of the perovskite film, so that the electroluminescent efficiency (EQE) and brightness of the perovskite light-emitting diode are significantly improved.
[0139] By comparing Example 1 with Examples 6-7, it can be seen that if the nitrogen flow rate is too low, the film growth rate will be too slow, affecting the film preparation efficiency, thereby reducing the electroluminescent efficiency (EQE) and brightness of the perovskite light-emitting diode; if the nitrogen flow rate is too high, the film will tend to grow into a multi-layer polycrystalline state with poor crystallinity, thereby reducing the electroluminescent efficiency (EQE) and brightness of the perovskite light-emitting diode.
[0140] By comparing Example 1 with Comparative Example 1, it can be seen that if the CsPbBr3 perovskite powder and the sapphire substrate covered with a single-molecule graphene film are placed in the same heating source area, the substrate will not be located in the low-temperature area for depositing the epitaxial film, and the epitaxial growth will fail.
[0141] From the comparison between Example 1 and Comparative Example 2, it can be seen that the epitaxial growth method provided by the prior art is prone to generate polycrystalline nuclei and simultaneously compete for growth during the crystal growth process, which is not conducive to the preparation of a single-domain single crystal thin film.
[0142] The applicant declares that the present invention illustrates the process method of the present invention through the above-mentioned embodiments, but the present invention is not limited to the above-mentioned process steps, that is, it does not mean that the present invention must rely on the above-mentioned process steps to be implemented. Those skilled in the art should understand that any improvement of the present invention, equivalent replacement of the raw materials selected by the present invention, addition of auxiliary components, selection of specific methods, etc., all fall within the protection scope and disclosure scope of the present invention.
