The present disclosure provides a composite material of a pre-formed crystalline or polycrystalline semiconductor particles embedded in a crystalline or polycrystalline perovskite matrix material. The pre-formed crystalline or polycrystalline semiconductor particles and and crystalline or polycrystalline perovskite being selected so that any lattice mismatch between the two lattices does not exceed about 10%. The pre-formed crystalline or polycrystalline semiconductor particles and said crystalline or polycrystalline perovskite matrix material have lattice planes that are substantially aligned. |
