The zero-phonon line (ZPL) of Mn, which highly depends on its local environment, is usually much weaker than the vibrational phonon sidebands. In this work, an ultraintense ZPL emission, coming from a brand new red-emitting RbLiGaF:Mn (RLGFM) phosphor upon blue light excitation, is presented. The interesting spectral characteristic originates from the nonequivalent substitution of Mn for Ga in a rigid octahedral structure with a low symmetry, which induces neighboring cation vacancies that distort the local symmetry of the [MnF] octahedra. Benefiting from the ultraintense ZPL emission, a wide color gamut is achieved using RLGFM and β-SiAlON:Eu as color converters. Moreover, a comprehensive investigation on the thermal quenching behavior is also conducted to provide detailed insights to explore novel Mn red phosphors for high-quality backlight display applications.

Strongly polarized color conversion of isotropic colloidal quantum dots coupled to fano resonances.

Colloidal quantum dots (QDs) offer high color purity essential to high-quality liquid crystal displays (LCDs), which enables unprecedented levels of color enrichment in LCD-TVs today. However, for LCDs requiring polarized backplane illumination in operation, highly polarized light generation using inherently isotropic QDs remains a fundamental challenge. Here, we show strongly polarized color conversion of isotropic QDs coupled to Fano resonances of v-grooved surfaces compatible with surface-normal LED illumination for next-generation QD-TVs.

Directionally Illuminated Autostereoscopy with Seamless Viewpoints for Multi-Viewers.

Autostereoscopy is usually perceived at finite viewpoints that result from the separated pixel array of a display system. With directionally illuminated autostereoscopy, the separation of the illumination channel from the image channel provides extra flexibility in optimizing the performance of autostereoscopy. This work demonstrates that by taking advantage of illumination freedom, seamless viewpoints in the sweet viewing region, where the ghosting does not cause significant discomfort, are realized.

Red phosphor plays a crucial role in improving the quality of white light illumination and backlight displays. However, significant challenges remain to enhance red emission intensity in different matrix materials. Herein, a class of two-phase mixing red phosphors of NaIn(MoO):Eu (NIMO:Eu) has been successfully prepared by the traditional high-temperature solid-state reaction method.

For high-efficiency lighting and wide color gamut backlight display, high-quality narrow-band red phosphors for WLEDs are still in high demand. Herein, a novel red-emitting fluoride phosphor CsNaGaF:Mn was successfully synthesized by a simple two-step co-precipitation method and exhibits ultra-intense zero-phonon lines (ZPLs) and long wavelength phonon sidebands under 468 nm blue light irradiation. The ZPL emission peak of CsNaGaF:Mn was located at 627 nm, which is much stronger than its υ vibration peak, more matchable with the eye-sensitive region of humans, and beneficial for obtaining higher luminous efficiency of WLEDs.

Thanks to the narrow line width and high brightness, colloidal quantum dot (CQD) lasers show promising applications in next-generation displays. However, CQD laser-based displays have yet to be demonstrated because of two challenges in integrating red, green, and blue (RGB) lasers: absorption from red CQDs deteriorates the optical gain of blue and green CQDs, and imbalanced white spectra lack blue lasing due to the high lasing threshold of blue CQDs. Herein, we introduce a facile surfactant-free self-assembly method to assemble RGB CQDs into high-quality whispering-gallery-mode (WGM) RGB lasers with close lasing thresholds among them.
