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 Zinc Chalcogenide Based Shell Layers for Colloidal Quantum Wells(Wiley, 2025-04-27) Aldemir, Cagatay Han; Yazici, Ahmet Faruk; Ergezer, Nehir; Korkmaz, Taha Can; Mutlugun, Evren; Kelestemur, YusufColloidal quantum wells, also known as colloidal nanoplatelets (NPLs), have emerged as a promising class of materials for light-emitting devices (LEDs). However, the most widely studied core/shell NPLs, which rely on cadmium-based shell layers, face challenges due to toxicity concerns and improper charge confinement. To address these limitations, a new synthetic approach is presented that enables the controlled growth of zinc chalcogenide-based shell layers on NPLs. The synthesized CdSe/ZnSe core/shell NPLs exhibit emission between 615 and 630 nm, with a moderate photoluminescence quantum yield (PL-QY) of 40-50%. It is also demonstrated that the lateral dimensions of the CdSe core NPLs significantly affect the optical properties of the core/shell heterostructures, with smaller lateral dimensions resulting in narrower emission linewidths as low as 20 nm. Further passivation of these core/shell NPLs with an additional ZnS shell layer significantly increases the PL-QY up to 80-90%. Finally, the device performance of these two core/shell NPLs is investigated by fabricating solution-processed LEDs. With LEDs incorporating CdSe/ZnSe/ZnS core/multi-shell NPLs as the active light-emitting layer, an external quantum efficiency (EQE) of 3.82% and a maximum brightness of 6477 cd m-2 is obtained. These findings underscore the significant potential of zinc chalcogenide-based shell layers in advancing colloidal NPLs toward high-performance light-emitting devices.
