ZINC TELLURIUM SELENIUM BASED QUANTUM DOT - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18105911 titled 'ZINC TELLURIUM SELENIUM BASED QUANTUM DOT
Simplified Explanation
The abstract describes a patent application for a core-shell quantum dot that consists of a core made of a semiconductor nanocrystal material and a shell made of a semiconductor nanocrystal material. The core-shell quantum dot does not contain cadmium but includes zinc, tellurium, selenium, and aluminum.
- The core-shell quantum dot is made of a first semiconductor nanocrystal material.
- The quantum dot has a shell made of a different semiconductor nanocrystal material.
- The quantum dot does not contain cadmium.
- The quantum dot contains zinc, tellurium, selenium, and aluminum.
Potential Applications
- Optoelectronic devices
- Solar cells
- Light-emitting diodes (LEDs)
- Biological imaging
Problems Solved
- Eliminates the use of cadmium, which is toxic and environmentally harmful.
- Provides an alternative to traditional core-shell quantum dots.
Benefits
- Safer and more environmentally friendly compared to cadmium-based quantum dots.
- Offers potential for improved performance in optoelectronic devices.
- Enables the development of new applications in various fields.
