Recently, near-infrared light-emitting diodes (NIR LEDs) based on PbSe quantum dots (QDs) have attracted considerable attention due to their facilely tunable emission wavelength, as well as high quantum yield. However, the low external quantum efficiency (EQE) of these LEDs has restricted their actual applications because of the non-radiative recombination caused by the aggregation in the solid-state QD films. Therefore, we proposed in this work to employ the liquid-type structure in NIR LEDs base on PbSe QDs, which exhibited the main advantages relying on the fact that the liquid structure could prevent the active layer from self-aggregation and improve the device stability. The emission intensity of these NIR LEDs was optimized by tuning the concentration of PbSe QDs. Besides, the radiation power of PbSe QD-based devices with different emission wavelengths was analyzed under different biases, and the maximum EQE of NIR LEDs was confirmed to be 5.3%. This result represents the highest record among the reported NIR QD-LEDs, indicating this kind of liquid-type NIR LEDs is promising for commercial applications.

Perovskite quantum dots (PQDs) show promise in light-emitting diodes (LEDs). However, near-infrared (NIR) LEDs employing PQDs exhibit inferior external quantum efficiency related to the PQD emitting in the visible range. One fundamental issue arises from the PQDs dynamic surface: the ligand loss and ions migration to the interfacial sites serve as quenching centers, resulting in trap-assisted recombination and carrier loss.

In recent years, metal halide perovskite-based light-emitting diodes (LEDs) have garnered significant attention as they display high quantum efficiency, good spectral tunability, and are expected to have low processing costs. When the peak emission wavelength is beyond 900 nm the interest is even higher because of the critical importance of this wavelength for biomedical imaging, night vision, and sensing. However, many challenges persist in fabricating these high-performance NIR LEDs, particularly for wavelengths above 950 nm, which appear to be limited by low radiance and poor stability.

Alfalfa is a widely grown forage with a high crude protein content. Clarifying the interactions between light quality and nitrogen level on yield and nitrogen metabolism can purposely improve alfalfa productivity in plant factories with artificial light (PFAL). In this study, the growth, quality, and nitrogen metabolism of alfalfa grown in PFAL were investigated using three nitrate-nitrogen concentrations (10, 15, and 20 mM, labeled as N, N, and N) and continuous light (CL) with two light qualities (red-blue and red-blue-green light, labeled as RB-C and RBG-C).
