Metal halide perovskites have emerged as a promising group of materials for optoelectronic applications such as photovoltaics, light emission, and photodetectors. So-far, in particular, the stability of light-emitting devices is limited, which is in part attributed to the intrinsic ionic conductivity of these materials. High-performance devices inevitably contain heterojunctions similar to other optoelectronic devices based on oxide perovskites, II-VI, or III-V group semiconductors. To enable efficient heterojunctions, ion exchange at the interface between different layers should be controlled. Herein, we report a method that enables to control and monitor the extent of anion intermixing between solution-processed lead bromide and vacuum-deposited lead chloride perovskite films. Taking advantage of the ability to fine tune the layer thicknesses of the vacuum-deposited films, we systematically study the effect of film thickness on anionic intermixing. Using these multiple layers, we prepare proof of principle light-emitting devices exhibiting green and blue electroluminescence.
