InP-based quantum dots (QDs) are widely adopted as a superior alternative to CdSe-based QDs in various fields owing to their high quantum yield, environmental friendliness, and excellent stability. However, improving its color purity remains a challenging task. In this work, we employ a multistage heating strategy to optimize the nucleation and shell growth processes of amino-phosphine-based InP/ZnSe/ZnS QDs for reducing emission linewidths.

Quantum dot (QD) light-emitting diodes (QLEDs) are promising for next-generation lighting and displays. Considering the optimization design of both the QD and device structure is expected to improve the QLED's performance significantly but has rarely been reported. Here, we use the thick-shell QDs combined with a dual-hole transport layer device structure to construct a high-efficiency QLED.

Whole visible range emitting CuInS/ZnS QDs were obtained with broad band-width and high luminous efficiency by altering the Cu/In ratio and coating ZnS layer. 1-Dodecanethiol (DDT) as a sulfur source in the ZnS coating process can inhibit the lattice defects caused by Zn inter-diffusion, thus increasing the photoluminescence quantum yield (PL QY). Then the stability and lighting performance of white light-emitting diodes (WLEDs) based on these CuInS/ZnS QDs were characterized.

Climate warming and thawing of permafrost in the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau have resulted in soil erosion and the decline of soil quality. Determining the decadal variation of soil quality in the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau is the basis for scientific understanding of soil resources and the key to vegetation restoration and ecological reconstruction. In this study, we used eight indicators (including soil organic matter, total nitrogen, and total phosphorus) to eva-luate soil quality of montane coniferous forest zone (Tibet's natural geographical division zone Ⅱ) and montane shrubby steppe zone (zone Ⅳ) by calculating soil quality index (SQI) in the southern Qinghai-Tibet Plateau in the 1980s and 2020s.

The performance of the blue perovskite light-emitting diodes (PeLEDs) is limited by the low photoluminescence quantum yields (PLQYs) and the unstable emission centers. In this work, we incorporate sodium bromide and acesulfame potassium into a quasi-2D perovskite to control the dimension distribution and promote the PLQYs. Benefiting from the efficient energy cascade channel and passivation, the sky-blue PeLED has an external quantum efficiency of 9.

An ultracompact fiber inclinometer based on a bubble controlled by Marangoni force is proposed in this Letter. By coupling a 980-nm laser, the bubble can suspend in a quantum dots (QDs) liquid-core waveguide (LCW) due to the Marangoni effect. Under the excitation of a 405-nm laser, QDs LCW exhibit green emissions centered at 523 nm.

The emission linewidth of quantum dots (QDs) is one of the important optical properties, which is essential for the applications of QD lasers, high-quality displays, and biological imaging. However, we know less about controlling emission linewidth and its underlying mechanisms. Here we introduce a wurtzite ZnSe shell onto a wurtzite CdSe core to produce asymmetric strain due to their large, anisotropic lattice mismatch.

The development of blue quantum dot light-emitting diodes (QLEDs) lags far behind that of the red and green ones, which hinders the practical commercialization of QLEDs. Balancing the charge transfer still remains a challenging task, because blue QD emitters have a deeper valence band (VB) that creates a great injection barrier impeding the hole transfer. Herein, we demonstrate that the charge transfer balance can be improved by using a tert-butyldimethylsilyl chloride-modified poly(p-phenylene benzobisoxazole) (TBS-PBO) blocking layer.

We present here the successful fabrication of core-shell constructed CdZnSe@ZnSe colloidal alloy quantum dots with tunable optical properties using a hot-injection method, demonstrating great potential in photovoltaic devices. Upon employment as charge extraction materials in all-inorganic perovskite solar cells, an enhanced power conversion efficiency up to 8.65% has been achieved arising from the boosted charge transfer dynamics.
