Synthesis of highly white-fluorescent Cu-Ga-S quantum dots for solid-state lighting devices

Chem Commun (Camb). 2016 Jan 14;52(4):709-12. doi: 10.1039/c5cc07968c.

Abstract

The synthesis of highly efficient, white-emitting Cu-Ga-S quantum dots (QDs), which possess not only sufficiently wide spectral coverage of blue-to-red but an exceptional quantum yield as high as 75%, is demonstrated. These QDs are further applied as down-converters with a near-UV light-emitting diode (LED) for the fabrication of white QD-LEDs.
