Three for the price of one! – Efficient charge transfer via multifunctional ligands

15.05.2025

We showed that CsPbBr₃ perovskite quantum dots functionalized with tailored multifunctional ligands undergo ultrafast and highly efficient hole transfer. These ligands combine strong surface binding, colloidal stability, and a functional molecule close to the pQD surface. By modifying the functional group, we also achieved efficient electron and energy transfer, highlighting the versatility of our approach.
