However, the fabrication of perovskite-based multicolor or white LEDs remains challenging due to the difficulty in depositing multiple emissive layers without damaging underlying films. Here, we demonstrate a hybrid Pe-GaN tandem LED by vertically integrating a solution-processed perovskite LED (PeLED) with a commercial GaN LED using an indium tin oxide (ITO) interconnecting layer. A two-step annealing strategy is employed to optimize the perovskite film quality, yielding significantly enhanced photoluminescence and improved film morphology. Benefiting from the optimized perovskite layer, the PeLED unit achieves substantially enhanced electroluminescence (EL) performance, with a maximum external quantum efficiency (EQE) of 10.2% and a high luminance of 91,233 cd <inline-formula> <tex-math>${mathrm {m}}^{-{2}}$ </tex-math></inline-formula>. Furthermore, by employing two different interconnecting layer structures, we achieve voltage-controlled color tunability with distinct spectral evolution behaviors.

Concurrently, the switching in both directions is observed to become more uniform. Based on the comparison with the volatile AFE HZO capacitor and experiments under varying cycling conditions, it is suggested that the cycling stress in the nonvolatile AFE HZO capacitor could promote charge injection.

Various approaches have been developed to deal with these reliability problems, and, of course, these approaches have been widely and successfully utilized. However, the experimental aspects of most investigations of these reliability issues involve only purely electrical measurements, from which a fundamental physical and chemical understanding of the underlying physical phenomena may only be inferred with great difficulty. A fundamental physical and chemical understanding of many of these issues can be developed through several electron spin-based techniques.
