Abstract

Provided are a core-shell structured perovskite particle light-emitter, a method of preparing the same, and a light emitting device using the same. The core-shell structured perovskite particle light-emitter or metal halide perovskite particle light-emitter has a perovskite nanocrystal structure and a core-shell structured particle structure. Therefore, in the perovskite particle light-emitter of the present invention, as a shell is formed of a substance having a wider band gap than that of a core, excitons may be more dominantly confined in the core, and durability of the nanocrystal may be improved to prevent exposure of the core perovskite to the air using a perovskite or inorganic semiconductor, which is stable in the air, or a polymer.
