Self-quenching-resistant and bright green-emitting carbon dots (CDs) in the solid state were synthesized via a facile hydrothermal method. Their structure, optical properties together with their thermal and photostabilities, as well as their applicability in white LEDs were investigated. The obtained CDs have nearly spherical shape with a size around 4-5 nm. The resulting powder CDs show excitation-independent emission behavior, and can be excited over a broad range from 300-450 nm. Under optimal excitation at 400 nm, the resultant powder CDs yield bright and broad green emission around 505 nm with full width at half maximum (FWHM) of about 110 nm and under 360 nm excitation with lifetime of 15.8 ns. A potential application of the green-emitting CDs was evaluated by constructing a white light-emitting diode lamp. The fabricated white LED lamp emitted bright, warm white light with excellent color rendering properties (a color rendering index of 86.9 and a correlated color temperature of 3863 K).

Narrow band green emitting phosphors have gained widespread attention due to their application in white light emitting diode (wLED) backlight displays. Commercial backlight displays have a broad band green phosphor which limits their performance. In this work, bright, narrow and thermally stable green emitting MgGaO:Mn (MGO-Mn) has been synthesized.

In this study, we have synthesized two types of green-emitting II-VI family colloidal quantum dots (QDs), specifically ZnCdSe/ZnS and CdSe/CdZnS/ZnS QDs, which are stimulated by ultraviolet (UV) and solar-blind deep-ultraviolet (DUV) light, respectively. With a transmission distance of 1.

Red fluorescent protein (RFP) variants are highly sought after for in vivo imaging since longer wavelengths improve depth and contrast in fluorescence imaging. However, the lower energy emission wavelength usually correlates with a lower fluorescent quantum yield compared to their green emitting counterparts. To guide the rational design of bright variants, we have theoretically assessed two variants (mScarlet and mRouge) which are reported to have very different brightness.

Decreasing perovskite nanocrystal size increases radiative recombination due to the quantum confinement effect, but also increases the Auger recombination rate which leads to carrier imbalance in the emitting layers of electroluminescent devices. Here, we overcome this trade-off by increasing the exciton effective mass without affecting the size, which is realized through the trace Cd doping of formamidinium lead bromide perovskite nanocrystals. We observe an ~2.
