Colloidal perovskite CsPbX3 (X = Cl, Br, I) nanocrystals (CPNCs)/polymers composites have attracted extensive attention due to their potential to be developed as flexible phosphor films for lighting applications. However, to maintain high quantum efficiency and photo stability of CPNCs in such composites remains a daunting challenge. Here, we have demonstrated a layered composite structure consisting of CPNCs and polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) with multi-color emission and long-term stability. By tuning the molar ratio between CsPbCl1.58Br1.42 and CsPbBr1.35I1.65, flexible fluorescent films as down-converter layers with a high luminescent efficiency and a controllable color temperature spanning from 3194 K to 5901 K have been demonstrated. Furthermore, due to embedding inside such composites, the quantum efficiency of CPNCs exhibited negligible changes during seven months in ambient conditions. The carrier dynamics based on time-resolved photoluminescence (PL) and transient absorption spectroscopy reveal that the hot electron tunneling and trapping process are significant in the composite film. This work provides a good understanding of CPNC materials in complex composite for the development of flexible, robust, color controllable fluorescent films for lighting applications.
