Sumario: | Light fidelity (LiFi), which is emerging as a compelling technology paradigm shifting the common means of high-capacity wireless communication technologies, requires wearable and full-duplex compact design because of its great significance in smart wearables as well as the ‘Internet of Things’. However, the construction of the key component of wearable full-duplex LiFi, light-emitting/detecting bifunctional fibres, is still challenging because of the conflicting process between carrier separation and recombination, as well as the highly dynamic film-forming process. Here, we demonstrate light-emitting/detecting bifunctional fibres enabled by perovskite QDs with hybrid components. The hybrid perovskite inks endow fibres with super-smooth QD films. This, combined with the small exciton binding energy and high carrier mobility of perovskite QDs, enables successful integration of electroluminescence and photodetection into monofilaments. The bifunctional fibres possess the narrowest electroluminescence full width at half maximum of ~19 nm and, more importantly, the capability for simultaneously transmitting and receiving information. The successful fabrication of narrow emission full-duplex LiFi fibres paves the way for the fabrication and integration of low crosstalk interoperable smart wearables. |
