The use of high-quality materials, such as metal halide phosphors, is essential in advanced electronic devices to efficiently convert light into measurable signals. One of the most promising materials is cesium copper iodide (Cs3Cu2I5: CCI), a toxic element-free copper-based iodide that is an efficient blue light-emitting material that can convert almost all the absorbed energy
