Quantum dot (QD) materials and their patterning technologies play a pivotal role in the full colorization of next-generation Micro-LED display technology. This article reviews the latest development in QD materials, including II-VI group, III-V group, and perovskite QDs, along with the state of the art in optimizing QD performance through techniques such as ligand engineering, surface coating, and core-shell structure construction. Additionally, it comprehensively covers the progress in QD patterning methods, such as inkjet printing, photolithography, electrophoretic deposition, transfer printing, microfluidics, and micropore filling method, and emphasizes their crucial role in achieving high precision, density, and uniformity in QD deposition.

As a fundamental component of human existence, land is inextricably linked to human development, and its ecological functions are closely associated with multiple sustainable development goals. This paper presents a framework for constructing and optimizing ecological function space, with the Yangtze-to-Huaihe Water Diversion Project area serving as a case study. A comprehensive land ecological index system is established, encompassing natural foundation, land degradation, land production, ecological structure, and ecological protection.

Article Synopsis
  • Perovskite nanocrystal (PeNC) arrays are gaining attention for micro-LED displays due to their narrow emission properties and customizable color output.
  • Electrohydrodynamic (EHD) inkjet printing is highlighted as an effective method for creating PeNC arrays, but challenges remain in producing stable and bright red light-emitting CsPbBrI nanocrystal arrays.
  • This study introduces a novel red PeNC colloidal ink that combines PeNCs, polystyrene, and xylene solvent to enhance brightness, stability, and shape control for 3D PeNC array fabrication, demonstrating a high-resolution printing capability suitable for micro-LED displays.

Article Synopsis
  • The instability of red perovskite nanocrystals (PeNCs) has been a major barrier for their use in patterning applications.
  • A new dual-ligand passivation strategy was developed to enhance the stability of PeNCs and prevent halogen ion migration during high-voltage EHD inkjet printing.
  • This method produced high-emission, stable red arrays and enabled successful creation of single-color and tricolor layers with impressive resolution, demonstrating potential for use in near-eye micro-LED displays.

The development of urban blue-green spaces is highly recommended as a nature-based solution for mitigating the urban heat island phenomenon, improving urban sustainability, and enhancing resident well-being. However, limited attention has been given to the accumulative impact of the cooling effect and the comparison of different types of landscapes. Based on the maximum and accumulative perspectives, this study selected 375 green spaces, water bodies, and urban parks in 25 cities of the Yangtze River Delta (YRD) region in China to quantify their cooling effect.
