Zero-dimensional (0D) metal halide perovskites (MHPs) have attracted much attention due to their unique crystal and electronic structure. Drastically different from three-dimensional (3D) CsPbCl 3 analogues, 0D perovskites exhibit broadband emission spectra of self-trapped excitons (STEs) with a large Stokes shift and high exciton binding energy. However, their luminescent efficiencies are much lower than those of the 3D ones. Herein, for the first time, we successfully synthesized the Sn 2+ -doped 0D Rb 4 CdCl 6 with an emission at 485 nm by a simple hydrothermal method. Importantly, the host with a doping of 0.239 Sn shows a near-unity quantum efficiency (PLQY ∼98.04%) under UV light excitation, which is the highest among Cd-based all-inorganic MHPs. The results from temperature-dependent PL spectra suggested that the emission might originate from STEs, where this broad emission is attributed to the 3 P 1 to 1 S 0 radiation transition of octahedral [SnCl 6 ] 4− units in the host matrix. As a result, the as-prepared doped crystals exhibit large Stokes shifts and high quantum efficiency. Our work successfully elucidates that the Sn 2+ dopant plays an integral role in improving PLQY of 0D MHPs. This kind of Sn 2+ -doped promising luminescent materials may have significant applications in optoelectronic devices.
