Abstract Colloidal cesium lead bromide (CsPbBr3) perovskite nanocrystals (NCs) are fabricated as densely packed thin films using doctor blade method through a layer-by-layer assembly approach. It is found that the optical properties of the CsPbBr3 NC films are significantly improved after a ligand exchange of oleic acid (OA) and oleylamine (OAm) by sodium and potassium nitrate in ethyl acetate. Ligand-induced surface defects are passivated by the sodium and potassium cations and nitrate, which leads to the improvement in photoluminescence (PL) and life-time properties. Compared with pristine OAm-OA capped CsPbBr3 NC film, Alkali-metal nitrate salts treated films are showing higher PL intensity and longer carrier-lifetime, evidencing their potential use to achieve defect-free inorganic perovskite NC films.
