CdSe/ZnS core/shell nanocrystals (NCs) are integrated into para-sexiphenyl (p-6P) based hybrid light emitting diodes, to obtain green and red emission in addition to blue emission originated from p-6P. For the active region of the devices, ultrathin layers of p-6P and NCs are deposited by hot wall epitaxy and spin casting, respectively, resulting in current-voltage characteristics with small leakage currents and low onset voltages. The achieved electroluminescence exhibits narrow emission line widths and thus high color purity, as required for color display applications.
CdSe/ZnS nanocrystals are embedded in para-sexiphenyl (p-6P) based hybrid light emitting diode devices providing red, green and blue (RGB) emission compatible to the HDTV color triangle. By structural and optical investigations the device parameters are optimized. The device performance is analyzed in respect to electrical and spectral response resulting in current-voltage characteristics with small leakage currents and low onset voltages. Furthermore the devices provide high color purity and stability which is demonstrated by their narrow emission line widths. All these results underline the ability of the presented device configuration to act as a future candidate for display applications.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
