This Project Grant, funded by the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Directorate for Engineering (CFDA 47.041) and awarded to Emory University on October 1, 2025, supports collaborative research on halide perovskite light-emitting diodes (LEDs) and lasers. The $300,000 award funds fundamental research designed to advance understanding of defect passivation, charge injection, and degradation mechanisms in organic-inorganic hybrid perovskite materials. The research aims to develop novel materials and two-dimensional/three-dimensional heterostructures that reduce defect density, suppress ion migration, and enhance device stability, with the ultimate objective of demonstrating ultra-bright perovskite LEDs capable of operating at high current density (exceeding 1,000 mA/cm²) with extended operational lifetime (over 200 hours). The deliverables from this three-year project (completion date September 30, 2028) include scientific advancement in perovskite semiconductor technology applicable to next-generation LED devices and light sources. The research emphasizes low-temperature, mild-condition material processing to enable cost-effective device fabrication and scalability compared to conventional high-temperature, high-vacuum manufacturing methods. Additionally, the award includes an educational component providing interdisciplinary training to undergraduate and graduate students in semiconductor technology, developing critical-thinking and problem-solving competencies for the future engineering and materials science workforce.
