Multiscale chemical engineering of functional metal halides

SCALE-HALO proposes a research program that will advance the development of highly luminescent molecular and solid-state compounds by focusing on the emerging, vast, and rather underexplored compositional and structural spaces comprised of metals and halogens, i.e., metal halides (MHs). SCALE-HALO is motivated by the eventual utility of MHs as versatile photonic sources in modern appliances (e.g., displays and lighting) and in future quantum technologies. The recent success of lead halide perovskites in optoelectronics inspires broader exploration of the chemistry and photophysics of MHs. The clear objective is to determine factors controlling the spectral widths and emission peak…
