QUANTUM DOTS AND DEVICES INCLUDING THE SAME - A simplified explanation of the abstract

  • This abstract for appeared for US patent application number 18220364 Titled 'QUANTUM DOTS AND DEVICES INCLUDING THE SAME'

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes a quantum dot, which is a tiny particle made up of a core and a shell. One of these components contains a semiconductor nanocrystal made of zinc and sulfur, while the other component contains a different semiconductor nanocrystal. The first semiconductor nanocrystal also includes a metal and a halogen, which act as a Lewis acid in a halide form. The amount of metal in the first semiconductor nanocrystal is at least 10% of the total number of moles of sulfur, and the amount of halogen is also at least 10% of the total number of moles of sulfur. The abstract also mentions a method of producing this quantum dot, as well as its use in composites and electronic devices.


Original Abstract Submitted

A quantum dot including a core and a shell disposed on the core wherein one of the core and the shell includes a first semiconductor nanocrystal including zinc and sulfur and the other of the core and the shell includes a second semiconductor nanocrystal having a different composition from the first semiconductor nanocrystal, the first semiconductor nanocrystal further includes a metal and a halogen configured to act as a Lewis acid in a halide form, an amount of the metal is greater than or equal to about 10 mole percent (mol %) based on a total number of moles of sulfur, and an amount of the halogen is greater than or equal to about 10 mol % based on a total number of moles of sulfur, a method of producing the same, and a composite and an electronic device including the same.
