Recent Advances on Mn2+-Doping in Diverse Metal Halide Perovskites

Mn2+ dopants introduce a new emission center in semiconductor luminescent materials, endowing them promising photoluminescence (PL) properties, such as a wide color tuning range, reversible color change, reduced self-absorption etc. Recently, rapid development of Mn2+ doped metal halide perovskites (MHPs) promote their promising applications in displays, photovoltaics, scintillators, etc. The emission color, luminous efficiency, and energy transfer pathway of doped perovskites are affected by condition of host lattice that accommodates Mn2+ ions. In this review, the optical properties determined by host materials with diverse geometries involving perovskite nanocrystals and perovskite derivatives is focused on, and the possible energy transfer routes in different doping systems are analyzed. An overview of recent advances of different doped systems with assigned emission channels together with the influence factors, strategies to enhance PL intensity and finally potential applications are summarized. To the end, the underlying challenges and possible solutions for further research in Mn doped perovskites are proposed.
