GaN-based μLEDs with superior properties have enabled outstanding achievements in emerging micro-display, high-quality illumination, and communication applications, especially white-light visible light communication (WL-VLC). WL-VLC systems can simultaneously provide white-light solid-state lighting (SSL) while realizing high-speed wireless optical communication. However, the bandwidth of conventional white-light LEDs is limited by the long-lifetime yellow yttrium aluminum garnet (YAG) phosphor, which restricts the available communication performance.

Quaternary Ag-In-Zn-S (AIZS) quantum dots (QDs) play critical roles in various applications since they have advantages of combining superior optical and electrical features, such as tunable fluorescence emission and high carrier mobilities. However, the application of semiconductor AIZS QDs in brain-inspired devices (e.g.

Graphene-photonic crystal fibers (PCFs) are obtained by integrating the broadband optical response and electro-optic tunability of graphene with the high-quality waveguide capacity and easy-integrability of the PCF, and this has been proven to be an important step towards multimaterial multifunctional fiber and all-fiber integrated circuits. However, the reported electro-optic modulator based on directly-grown graphene-PCF suffers from very low response speed (below 100 Hz) due to the slow response of ionic liquid. Here, we propose new functional PCFs with a sandwiched graphene/hBN/graphene (Gr/hBN/Gr) film attached to the hole walls of the fibers, and theoretically demonstrate that the in-line modulator based on it can achieve simultaneous single-mode transmission ranging from 1260 nm to 1700 nm (covering all optical communication bands), significant modulation depth (e.
