Article Performance Boost in QLEDs Using Octanethiol-Capped Core/Shell Quantum Dots(IOP Publishing Ltd, 2026-01-07) Yazici, Ahmet F.; Yuruc, Adnan M.; Kelestemur, Yusuf; Serin, Ramis Berkay; Kacar, Rifat; Ulku, Alper; Mutlugun, EvrenQuantum dots attract significant attention as one of the most promising colloidal nanocrystals with unique optical properties and potential applications for the next generation of display technology. In this paper, we evaluate the performance of CdZnSeS-based alloyed-shell quantum dots (QDs) for electroluminescence devices upon additional shell growth and ligand exchange. This includes core/shell (C/S) and core/shell/shell (C/S/S) QDs, whose latter includes an additional ZnS shell and octanethiol (OT) ligands. We present detailed characterizations of QDs using transmission electron microscopy, XRD, and various spectroscopic techniques and demonstrate their QD light emitting (QLEDs). We find the photoluminescence quantum yield of C/S/S QDs increased from 68.8% to 88.7% compared to C/S QDs whereas the emission linewidth narrows from 22.2 nm to 20.8 nm. QLEDs fabricated with C/S/S QDs exhibit a higher peak external quantum efficiency (EQE) of 4.1% and maximum luminance of 85 000 cd m-2, compared to 2.3% EQE and 67 000 cd m-2 for C/S QLEDs. In this respect, the OT-assisted shell growth significantly improves the optical property of QDs and performance of QLEDs, likely attributed to the enhanced charge balance and increased radiative recombination rate.Article Citation - WoS: 63Citation - Scopus: 64Effective Neural Photostimulation Using Indium-Based Type-II Quantum Dots(Amer Chemical Soc, 2018-07-18) Jalali, Houman Bahmani; Aria, Mohammad Mohammadi; Dikbas, Ugur Meric; Sadeghi, Sadra; Kumar, Baskaran Ganesh; Sahin, Mehmet; Nizamoglu, Sedat; Ganesh Kumar, Baskaran; Bahmani Jalali, Houman; Mohammadi Aria, MohammadLight-induced stimulation of neurons via photoactive surfaces offers rich opportunities for the development of therapeutic methods and high-resolution retinal prosthetic devices. Quantum dots serve as an attractive building block for such surfaces, as they can be easily functionalized to match the biocompatibility and charge transport requirements of cell stimulation. Although indium based colloidal quantum dots with type-I band alignment have attracted significant attention as a nontoxic alternative to cadmium-based ones, little attention has been paid to their photovoltaic potential as type-II heterostructures. Herein, we demonstrate type-II indium phosphide/zinc oxide core/shell quantum dots that are incorporated into a photoelectrode structure for neural photostimulation. This induces a hyperpolarizing bioelectrical current that triggers the firing of a single neural cell at 4 mu W mm(-2), 26-fold lower than the ocular safety limit for continuous exposure to visible light. These findings show that nanomaterials can induce a biocompatible and effective biological junction and can introduce a route in the use of quantum dots in photoelectrode architectures for artificial retinal prostheses.
