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: 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 Citation - WoS: 2Citation - Scopus: 1Fully Inorganic Colloidal CsPbBr3 Perovskite Nanocrystals with Zn-Doping and Metal Oxide Encapsulation for Luminescent Display Panels(Amer Chemical Soc, 2025-11-07) Khorasani, Azam; Soheyli, Ehsan; Mutlugun, EvrenPerovskite nanocrystals (PeNCs) are emerging as exceptional materials due to their high photoluminescence quantum yield, tunable bandgap, and excellent charge carrier mobility, enabling a wide range of colors and promising applications in optoelectronics and photovoltaics. Despite their advantages, PeNCs face stability challenges caused by environmental factors. In the presented study, a facile and versatile colloidal hot-injection method was used to apply the beneficial aspects of Zn-doping in cesium lead bromide (CsPbBr3) PeNCs. The uniform platelet-shaped Zn-doped CsPbBr3 PeNCs were prepared by doping with a 0.1 molar ratio of zinc-oleate solution in the perovskite precursors during synthesis. Then, zinc-oxide (ZnO) and nickel-oxide (NiO) coating layers were utilized separately to effectively reduce surface defects, encapsulate PeNCs, and improve their stability issues. To fabricate the coated PeNCs with metal oxides, zinc acetate and nickel(II) acetate tetrahydrate solutions were prepared individually and added to the crude perovskite solutions. The quantum yield of Zn-doped CsPbBr3 (CsPb1-xZnxBr3) PeNCs coated with ZnO increased from 50% for bare CsPbBr3 to over 84%, while NiO-coated PeNCs exhibited a higher yield of 90% both of which remarkably enhanced the emission stability. Moreover, NiO coatings represented a proper protection against surface imperfections and improved resistance to external stimuli. The combination of facile/effective preparation method, excellent emission efficiency, and reliable emission stability nominates the prepared colloidal composite for display pixels, detectors, and lasers.
