Recently, cesium lead bromide perovskite glass has been recognized as a potential material to fabricate green light emission devices because of their high stability and excellent optical performance. However, the low photoluminescence efficiency and poor color purity (

So
far, the application of inorganic glass materials in the field of photocatalysis has not been
explored. First, phase separation induced CsPbBr3 quantum
dot glasses, as an unprecedented method, is proposed in this work.
The results show that the fluorescence intensity of quantum dots (QDs)
glass is increased by 1.5 times compared with the initial intensity
after the thermal cycle, showing excellent thermal stabilities. Furthermore,
the quantum dots glass material is used for the first time in antibiotic
residues degradation. The concentration of TC-HCl in 20 mg/L is degraded
by 73% in 1 h, and the photocatalytic efficiency reaches 85% of the
initial value after three cycles, revealing favorable water stabilities.
In this paper, quantum dot glass material breaks the inherent thinking
of the preparation methods, and it explores the feasibility application
in fields of photocatalyst and brings unexpected changes to the application
of glass material in the future.
