Heterostructures often exhibit synergistic effects that exceed the sum of their individual components. Currently, heterostructures involving metal nanoparticles and chalcogenide semiconductor nanocrystals have been extensively studied; however, research on heterostructures based on perovskite nanocrystals, which have experienced explosive growth in recent years, remains relatively limited. A primary reason for this is the extremely low formation energy of perovskite nanocrystals and their remarkably rapid growth kinetics, which pose significant challenges to the synthesis of well-defined heterostructures.
Recently, Professor Narayan Pradhan of the Indian Association for the Cultivation of Science published a review on the synthesis, optical properties, and applications of all-inorganic perovskite nanocrystals and inorganic–inorganic heterostructures (as shown in the figure below).
