    Quantum 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.

    Highly Stable, Near-Unity Efficiency Atomically Flat Semiconductor Nanocrystals of CdSe/ZnS Hetero-Nanoplatelets Enabled by ZnS-Shell Hot-Injection Growth

    Colloidal semiconductor nanoplatelets (NPLs) offer important benefits in nanocrystal optoelectronics with their unique excitonic properties. For NPLs, colloidal atomic layer deposition (c-ALD) provides the ability to produce their core/shell heterostructures. However, as c-ALD takes place at room temperature, this technique allows for only limited stability and low quantum yield. Here, highly stable, near-unity efficiency CdSe/ZnS NPLs are shown using hot-injection (HI) shell growth performed at 573 K, enabling routinely reproducible quantum yields up to 98%. These CdSe/ZnS HI-shell hetero-NPLs fully recover their initial photoluminescence (PL) intensity in solution after a heating cycle from 300 to 525 K under inert gas atmosphere, and their solid films exhibit 100% recovery of their initial PL intensity after a heating cycle up to 400 K under ambient atmosphere, by far outperforming the control group of c-ALD shell-coated CdSe/ZnS NPLs, which can sustain only 20% of their PL. In optical gain measurements, these core/HI-shell NPLs exhibit ultralow gain thresholds reaching approximate to 7 mu J cm(-2). Despite being annealed at 500 K, these ZnS-HI-shell NPLs possess low gain thresholds as small as 25 mu J cm(-2). These findings indicate that the proposed 573 K HI-shell-grown CdSe/ZnS NPLs hold great promise for extraordinarily high performance in nanocrystal optoelectronics.
