چکیده

We report a novel unipolar light-emitting device architecture that operates using direct-current, field-driven electroluminescence of colloidally synthesized quantum dots (QDs). This device architecture, which is based only on transparent ceramics and QDs, enables emission from different color QDs and, for the first time, constant QD electroluminescence during extended operation in air, unpackaged.

Effect of PbS Film Thickness on the Performance of Colloidal Quantum Dot Solar Cells

Colloidal quantum dots offer broad tuning of semiconductor band structure via the quantum size effect. In this paper, we present a detailed investigation on the influence of the thickness of colloidal lead sulfide (PbS) nanocrystals (active layer) to the photovoltaic performance of colloidal quantum dot solar cells. The PbS nanocrystals (QDs) were synthesized in a non-coordinating solvent, 1-oc...

Electronic and excitonic processes in light-emitting devices based on organic materials and colloidal quantum dots

We investigate the mechanism of operation of hybrid organic/colloidal quantum dot light emitting devices QD-LEDs . Novel quantum dot QD deposition methods allow us to change the location of an emissive QD monolayer within a QD-LED multilayer structure. We find that the quantum efficiency of devices improves by 50% upon imbedding QD monolayers into the hole transporting layer 10 nm away from the...
