Article Enhanced Photoluminescence via Plasmonic Gold Nanoparticles and Improved Stability of Perovskite Nanocrystals in Macroporous (Polydimethylsiloxane) PDMS Matrices(Springer, 2025-10-09) Ocal, Sema Karabel; Tiras, Kevser Sahin; Onses, M. Serdar; Mutlugun, EvrenIn this work, we report a simple and cost-effective method for improving both the environmental stability and photoluminescence quantum efficiency (PLQY) of perovskite nanocrystals (PNCs). Through their embedding in a specially designed macroporous polydimethylsiloxane (MPDMS) matrix and incorporation of plasmonic gold nanoparticles (Au NPs), remarkable improvements are achieved. The resulting MPDMS@PNC composites are seen to retain near-unity quantum efficiency even after 24-h immersion in water and are observed to retain over 85% of the original efficiency even at 75 degrees C, displaying excellent thermal stability. More interestingly, by incorporating Au NPs and subjecting the material to mechanical pressure, the lifetime of the PNCs gets further increased. This is due to the more intimate spatial arrangement of Au NPs in the porous matrix, enhancing localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) coupling and thereby enhancing the photoluminescence (PL) of the PNCs. In general, this approach offers a scalable and robust route to designing stable, high-performance perovskite-based materials for next-generation optoelectronic applications.Article Citation - WoS: 1Citation - Scopus: 1Tailoring Quantum Dot Shell Thickness and Polyethylenimine Interlayers for Optimization of Inverted Quantum Dot Light-Emitting Diodes(MDPI, 2024-07-11) Yazici, Ahmet F.; Ocal, Sema Karabel; Bicer, Aysenur; Serin, Ramis B.; Kacar, Rifat; Ucar, Esin; Mutlugun, EvrenQuantum dot light-emitting diodes (QLEDs) hold great promise for next-generation display applications owing to their exceptional optical properties and versatile tunability. In this study, we investigate the effects of quantum dot (QD) shell thickness, polyethylenimine (PEI) concentration, and PEI layer position on the performance of inverted QLED devices. Two types of alloyed-core/shell QDs with varying shell thicknesses were synthesized using a one-pot method with mean particle sizes of 8.0 +/- 0.9 nm and 10.3 +/- 1.3 nm for thin- and thick-shelled QDs, respectively. Thick-shelled QDs exhibited a higher photoluminescence quantum yield (PLQY) and a narrower emission linewidth compared to their thin-shelled counterparts. Next, QLEDs employing these QDs were fabricated. The incorporation of PEI layers on either side of the QD emissive layer significantly enhanced device performance. Using PEI on the hole transport side resulted in greater improvement than on the electron injection side. Sandwiching the QD layer between two PEI layers led to the best performance, with a maximum external quantum efficiency (EQE) of 17% and a peak luminance of 91,174 cd/m2 achieved using an optimized PEI concentration of 0.025 wt% on both electron injection and hole injection sides. This study highlights the critical role of QD shell engineering and interfacial modification in achieving high-performance QLEDs for display applications.
