    Structure of the device and basic properties. (a) Schematic structure architecture; (b) cross section scanning electron microscope (SEM) image of the device; (c) normalized emission (blue) and absorption (red) of prepared CsPbBr3 film; (d) refractive index of each layer and electric field distribution of the 530 nm optical standing wave inside device; (e) reflectivity of strongly coupled microcavity device at 0° and 33° relative to the normal direction; (f) PL intensity map of the cavity device with the area of 100 μm×100 μm.
    Angle-resolved reflectivity and analysis. (a) Angle-resolved reflectivity (black lines) of devices at three different normal cavity–exciton detunings: Δ=1.1, −77, −128 meV and angle-dependent shifts of reflection dips (orange lines). (b)–(d) UP (red) and LP (blue) dispersion curves of exciton–polariton, fitted with extracted angle-resolved reflectivity dips (*) and theoretical two-level model (solid lines). Dotted lines correspond to the dispersion of the bare cavity photon (gray) and excitonic (purple) modes. (e)–(g) Components of exciton (blue) and photon (red) in LP states at the three detunings.
    Optoelectronic performance of the device. (a)–(c) Angle-resolved PL/EL spectra of the three detunings. UPs, LPs, Ex, and Eph dispersions from fitted ARR in Fig. 2 are marked simultaneously. (d) Energy-level diagram of the as-fabricated device; (e), (f) comparison of current density(J)-voltage(V)-luminance(L)-external quantum efficiency (EQE) curves (inset: photograph of perovskite exciton–polariton LED at operation); (g) spectral stability of the −77 meV detuning device under different current densities; (h) distribution of peak EQE for −77 meV detuning devices; (i) operational stability of the −77 meV detuning device under constant current measured with an initial max luminance of 700 cd/cm2.
    Influence of MAA electrode thickness on device performance. (a) Angle-resolved reflectivity of devices with 20 and 40 nm MAA as top electrodes; (b), (c) angle-resolved PL/EL of devices with 20 and 40 nm MAA as top electrodes; (d), (e) J-V-L-EQE characteristics; (f) normal EL spectra with 20 and 40 nm MAA electrodes.

(e) Temperature-dependent photoluminescence of prepared CsPbBr3 film; the inset is a photograph of prepared CsPbBr3 film under UV light illumination. (f) Integrated photoluminescence intensities are fitted by I(T)=I0/(1+A⋅exp(−Eb/KT)) [47,48]. Exciton binding energy is extracted from fitting parameter Eb.
