LIGHT CONVERSION USING PEROVSKITE QUANTUM DOTS

Introduction

Sometimes it is not the chemical composition that defines the properties of a material, but its shape and size. This is the case for small semiconducting particles, commonly called quantum dots. The dimension and shape of these nanocrystals make them uniquely versatile and promising for electro-optical applications.

Quantum dots are crystalline semiconductor particles, with a radius of few nanometers, whose optical and electrical properties are essentially determined by the size. The smaller the particles, the more the optical absorption and emission shift towards shorter wavelengths.

This blog post describes some of the properties and applications of quantum dots, in particular perovskite nanocrystals. We are showing how to characterize films with embedded nanocrystals using angular resolved electroluminescence (Phelos) and analyze the results with a fully coupled electro-optical simulation (Setfos).https://www.fluxim.com/light-conversion-perovskite-quantum-dots
