QUANTUM DOTS AND DEVICES INCLUDING THE SAME - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18429592 titled 'QUANTUM DOTS AND DEVICES INCLUDING THE SAME
Simplified Explanation
A quantum dot with a core and a shell, where one includes a first semiconductor nanocrystal with zinc and sulfur, and the other includes a second semiconductor nanocrystal with a different composition. The first semiconductor nanocrystal also contains a metal and a halogen acting as a Lewis acid in a halide form.
- Core and shell structure:
- Core and shell are made of different semiconductor nanocrystals. - Core or shell contains zinc and sulfur, while the other contains a different composition.
- First semiconductor nanocrystal composition:
- Contains a metal and a halogen acting as a Lewis acid in a halide form. - Metal content is at least 10 mol% based on the total moles of sulfur. - Halogen content is at least 10 mol% based on the total moles of sulfur.
