Article Citation - WoS: 1Citation - Scopus: 1Ultra-Durable Information-Encoded Anti-Counterfeiting Self-Assembled Nanocrystal Labels(Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH, 2025-11-28) Haddadifam, Taha; Shabani, Farzan; Kalay, Mustafa; Khaligh, Aisan; Mutlugun, Evren; Onses, Mustafa Serdar; Demir, Hilmi VolkanForgery, a serious universal problem, is causing huge economic losses every year. Against forgery, information-encoded labelling systems have attracted significant attention for a diverse range of anti-counterfeiting applications. Here, cost-effective and ultra-durable nanocrystal-based labels are proposed and demonstrated in which information can be encoded as physically unclonable functions (PUFs) of hardware-oriented security systems. The fabrication method of the PUFs is based on the self-assembly of colloidal quantum wells (CQWs) and generation of unclonable features within their pattern at a liquid-liquid interface. These CQW PUFs are analyzed with well-known statistical tests, which show a uniqueness level of 0.5060 +/- 0.0323 and prove their randomness. In addition, a feature-matching algorithm is used to authenticate these information-encoded CQW PUFs. For the safety of the semiconductor chips, a CQW PUF is attached to the surface of the chip to protect against hardware cyber-attacks. Eventually, fabricated labels are examined against high temperatures and moisture environments. The fabricated CQW label is durable for a period of 150 days it is tested, demonstrating ultra-high stability of the label. High stability and durability, cost-effectiveness, and high encoding capacity make these proposed nanocrystal labels extremely attractive for large-scale commercialization.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.Article Citation - WoS: 2Citation - Scopus: 2Color Enrichment Solids of Spectrally Pure Colloidal Quantum Wells for Wide Color Span in Displays(Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH, 2022-06-06) Erdem, Talha; Soran-Erdem, Zeliha; Isik, Furkan; Shabani, Farzan; Yazici, Ahmet Faruk; Mutlugun, Evren; Demir, Hilmi VolkanColloidal quantum wells (CQWs) are excellent candidates for lighting and display applications owing to their narrow emission linewidths (<30 nm). However, realizing their efficient and stable light-emitting solids remains a challenge. To address this problem, stable, efficient solids of CQWs incorporated into crystal matrices are shown. Green-emitting CdSe/CdS core/crown and red-emitting CdSe/CdS core/shell CQWs wrapped into these crystal solids are employed as proof-of-concept demonstrations of light-emitting diode (LED) integration targeting a wide color span in display backlighting. The quantum yield of the green- and red-emitting CQW-containing solids of sucrose reach approximate to 20% and approximate to 55%, respectively, while emission linewidths and peak wavelengths remain almost unaltered. Furthermore, sucrose matrix preserves approximate to 70% and approximate to 45% of the initial emission intensity of the green- and red-emitting CQWs after >60 h, respectively, which is approximate to 4x and approximate to 2x better than the drop-casted CQW films and reference (KCl) host. Color-converting LEDs of these green- and red-emitting CQWs in sucrose possess luminous efficiencies 122 and 189 lm W-elect(-1), respectively. With the liquid crystal display filters, this becomes 39 and 86 lm W-elect(-1), respectively, providing with a color gamut 25% broader than the National Television Standards Committee standard. These results prove that CQW solids enable efficient and stable color converters for display and lighting applications.
