The trion, a quasiparticle comprising one exciton and an additional charge carrier, offers unique opportunities for generating spin-photon interfaces that can be used in developing quantum networks. Trions are also actively sought after for integrated optoelectronic devices including photovoltaics, photodetectors, and spintronics. However, formation of trions in strongly confined low-dimensional materials is often deemed detrimental. This is because trion emission in such materials is typically prohibited due to the predominant nonradiative Auger recombination processes. Semiconductor nanoplatelets with their strong confinement in the thickness direction and extended lateral geometries exhibit large exciton coherence sizes and reduced carrier-carrier interactions that may enable unprecedented trion properties. Here, we perform optical spectroscopic studies of individual CdSe nanoplatelets at cryogenic temperatures and observe bright trion emission with intensities comparable to that of neutral exciton emission. We perform carrier dynamics studies of the nanoplatelets and find that due to their extended lateral geometry, the fast radiative decay rate of the nanoplatelets at cryogenic temperatures is comparable to the inhibited Auger recombination rate, leading to the bright trion emission. Our tight-binding theory further reveals distinct size-tunable trion emission in the nanoplatelets that is advantageous for efficient trion emission. These properties make semiconductor nanoplatelets potential candidates as photon sources for optoelectronic and quantum logic devices.
