Efficient
and spectrally stable pure-red perovskite light-emitting
diodes (PeLEDs) are still rare and urgently needed for high-definition
display. The traditional color tuning method by varying halide composition
undergoes phase segregation and has spectral instability issues. Instead
of halide mixing, we fabricate pure-red PeLEDs based on quasi-two-dimensional
(quasi-2D) perovskites by simultaneously incorporating phenethylammonium
(PEA) and 1-naphthylmethylammonium (NMA) cations. The control of PEA
and NMA cospacer ratio modulates the phase distribution and the resulting
different color emission. The PeLEDs with PEA:NMA molar ratio of 5:5
exhibit a pure-red (635 nm) electroluminescence (EL) with a CIE coordinate
(0.709, 0.285) approaching the Rec. 2020 specification. Meanwhile,
the optimized devices exhibit an external quantum efficiency (EQE)
of 12.41% and a maximum brightness of 1452.6 cd m–2, which are among the best-performing pure-red PeLEDs based on quasi-2D
perovskite to date. Additionally, our PeLEDs demonstrate stable EL
spectra under different operating voltages and continuous operation.
