Mixed-halide CsPb(Br/I)3 perovskite quantum dots (QDs) are regarded as one of the most promising candidates for pure-red perovskite light-emitting diodes (PeLEDs) due to their precise spectral tuning property. However, the lead-rich surface of these QDs usually results in halide ion migration and nonradiative recombination loss, which remains a great challenge for high-performance PeLEDs. To solve the above issues, we employ a chelating agent of 1,4,7,10-tetraazacyclododecane-1,4,7,10-tetraacetic acid hydrate (DOTA) to polish the lead-rich surface of the QDs and meanwhile introduce a new ligand of 2,3-dimercaptosuccinic acid (DMSA) to passivate surface defects of the QDs. This synchronous post-treatment strategy results in high-quality CsPb(Br/I)3 QDs with suppressed halide ion migration and an improved photoluminescence quantum yield, which enables us to fabricate spectrally stable pure-red PeLEDs with a peak external quantum efficiency of 23.2%, representing one of the best performance pure-red PeLEDs based on mixed-halide CsPb(Br/I)3 QDs reported to date.
