- Abstract
Perovskite nanocrystals (PNCs) are attractive photoactive materials in various optoelectronic devices including light‐emitting diodes, solar cells, and photodetectors. However, the weakly bound surface ligands on PNCs reduce colloidal stability and cause film formation and patterning difficulties, severely restricting their practical applications. Herein, a rationally designed photocrosslinkable zwitterionic (PZ) ligand is introduced to obtain directly patternable CsPbBr3 PNCs with enhanced colloidal stability, optical properties, and self‐assembly propensity. The PZ ligands strongly interact with the pre‐synthesized PNCs in solution, substantially replacing the original capping ligands and effectively passivating surface defects. This surface engineering induces strong electrostatic interactions between the PNCs, enabling the fabrication of densely packed CsPbBr3 PNC films. Furthermore, the methacrylate group of the PZ ligands serves as a bridge for active radical propagation in the ligand shells around the PNCs upon UV exposure. Accordingly, high‐resolution direct photopatterning can be achieved through ligand crosslinking, and the resulting PNC patterns (minimum line spacing of 4 µm) maintain optical stability for over 2 weeks. Therefore, this study demonstrates that a tailored ligand design strategy enables the simultaneous achievement of high colloidal stability, optical properties, photopatternability, and self‐assembly propensity and has considerable potential to be extended to other PNC materials.
