The results indicated that the synthesized CsxW03 powders exhibited hexagohal CSo.32WO3 crystal structure, and subsequent N2 annealing could further improve the crystallinity of CsxW03 particles. Moreover, the NIR shielding and heat insulation properties of CsxW03 could be further improved after N2 annealing at appropriate temperature for a period of time. Particularly, the 500 ℃-annealed CsxW03 products in the N2 atmosphere showed the best NIR shielding and heat insulation properties. When the N2 annealing temperature was higher than 700 ℃, the NIR shielding properties decreased again. The 800 ℃-annealed samples in the N2 atmosphere showed higher visible light transmittance, however, the NIR shielding properties were lower than that of the non-annealed samples.展开更多

Herein, ultrathin CsPbCl_3 NWs with height of ~7 nm, have been achieved via vapor phase deposition method. Power and temperature-dependent photoluminescence(PL) spectroscopy is performed to explore the emission properties of the CsPbCl_3 NWs. Strong free exciton recombination is observed at ~3.02 eV as the temperature(T) is 78-294 K with binding energy of ~ 37.5 meV. With the decreasing of T, the PL peaks exhibit a first blueshift by 2 meV for T ~ 294-190 K and then a redshift by 4 meV for T ~ 190-78 K. The exciton–optical phonon interaction plays a major role in the linewidth broadening of the PL spectra with average optical phonon energy of ~48.0 meV and the interaction coefficient of 203.9 meV. These findings advance the fabrication of low dimensional CsPbCl_3 perovskite and provide insights into the photophysics of the CsPbCl_3 perovskite.展开更多
