ZnS:Mn/ZnS core-shell quantum dots (QDs), were synthesized via a thermal decomposition reaction of organometallic precursors in a hot solvent mixture. The synthetic conditions of the quantum dots were monitored at various reaction temperatures for the core formation, while the shell formation temperature was fixed at 135$^{\circ}C$. The obtained colloidal nanocrystals at corresponding temperatures were characterized by UV-Vis, solution photoluminescence (PL) spectroscopies, and further obtained powders were characterized by XRD, HR-TEM, and EDXS analyses. The synthetic temperature condition to obtain the best PL emission intensity for the core-shell QD was 135$^{\circ}C$, for both core and shell formation. At this temperature, solution PL spectrum showed a narrow emission peak at 583 nm with a relative PL quantum efficiency of 42.15%. In addition, the measured spherical particle sizes for the ZnS:Mn/ZnS nanocrystals via HR-TEM were in the range of 4.0 to 5.4 nm, while ellipsoidal particles were obtained at 150$^{\circ}C$.

유기발광소자는 빠른 응답속도, 넓은 시야각, 얇은 두께의 특성으로 차세대 디스플레이 소자기술로 많은 주목을 받고 있다. 특히 높은 색순도와 고효율의 장점을 가지는 양자점을 사용한 유기발광소자에 대한 연구가 활발하게 진행되고 있다. 양자점을 이용한 유기발광소자는 용액 공정이 요구 되기 때문에 유기물 박막 위에 양자점을 균일하게 도포하기 어렵다. 또한, 양자점은 수분과 산소에 빠르게 열화되는 문제점이 있다. 본 연구에서는 색변환 양자점을 포함하는 고분자 poly (N-vibylcarbazole) 정공수송층을 용액공정으로 형성한 후 발광층, 전자 수송 및 주입층과 음극을 차례로 진공증착하여 색변환 양자점을 포함하는 정공수송층을 적용한 청색 유기발광소자를 제작하였다. 색변환양자점과 청색 발광층으로 a 1,4-bis (2,2-diphenylvinyl) biphenyl를 사용하여 제작된 유기발광 소자의 전기적 및 광학적 특성을 관찰하였다. 색변환 양자점을 포함한 청색 유기발광소자의 경우 정공이 양자점에 포획되는 확률이 낮기 때문에 높은 전류밀도와 휘도를 나타냈으며, core/shell 색변환 양자점을 포함한 청색 유기발광소자는 정공이 양자점에 포획되는 확률이 높기 때문에 낮은 전류밀도와 휘도를 나타냈다. 한편, core/shell 색변환양자점을 포함한 청색 유기발광소자의 경우 색변환 양자점을 포함하는 청색 유기발광소자에 비해 발광층에서 발광된 빛을 잘 흡수하여 높은 색변환 효율이 나타났다. 이 연구 결과는 양자점을 색변환층으로 사용한 청색 유기발광소자의 색변환 효율 증가와 발광효율 향상에 대한 기초자료로 활용할 수 있다.

QDs-LEDs(quantum dot light emitting device) should contain well-organized arrays of QDs on an electron transport layer. Thin films of CdSe/ZnS core-shell QDs were successfully fabricated on $TiO_2$ substrates by using PDMS stamp and micro contact printing method. 2-Carboxyethylphosphonic acid(CAPO) and 1,6-hexanedithiol(HDT) were employed as molecular linkers in assembling CdSe/ZnS core-shell QDs with high-density and uniform array. The CAPO increased the binding strength between the QDs and the substrates, and the HDT induced the strong inter-particle attractions of assembled QDs. The assembling properties of QDs thin films were characterized by SEM, AFM, optical microscope and photoluminescence spectroscope(PL).

The core/shell of nanowires (NWs) with Cu-doped CdSe quantum dots were fabricated as an electron transport layer (ETL) for perovskite solar cells, based on ZnO/TiO2 arrays. We presented CdSe with Cu2+ dopants that were synthesized by a colloidal process. An improvement of the recombination barrier, due to shell supplementation with Cu-doped CdSe quantum dots. The enhanced cell steady state was attributable to TiO2 with Cu-doped CdSe QD supplementation. The mechanism of the recombination and electron transport in the perovskite solar cells becoming the basis of ZnO/TiO2 arrays was investigated to represent the merit of core/shell as an electron transport layer in effective devices.

In this work, we synthesized alloy-core InZnP quantum dots, which are more efficient than single-core InP quantum dots, using a solution process method. The effect of synthesis conditions of alloy core on optical properties was investigated. We also investigated the conditions that make up the gradient shell to minimize defects caused by lattice mismatch between the InZnP core and ZnS is 7.7%. The stable synthesis temperature of the InZnP alloy core was 200℃. Quantum dots consisting of three layered ZnSe gradient shell and single layered ZnS exhibited the best optical property. The properties of quantum dots synthesized in 100 ml and in 2,000 ml flasks were almost equal.

반도체 양자점 구조는 양자크기 효과를 이용하여, 인공적으로 원자와 같이 매우 좁은 선폭의 에너지준위를 만들어 낼 수 있다는 점에서 관심을 끌고 있는 물질 구조이다. 특히 양자점 구조는 크기에 따라 에너지 준위의 위치가 조절되므로, 기본적인 물성을 탐구하는 물리적인 관점에서 뿐만이 아니라 실용적인 관점에서도 이를 이용한 전자, 광전자 및 광소자에 관한 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있다. 반도체 양자점은 여러 가지 다양한 방법으로 제작되고 있는데 대표적으로 유리 안에 반도체 미세구조를 첨가하는 방법, Stranski-Krastanow 생장에 의한 자발 형성 방법, 리소그래피에 의한 식각 방법, 그리고 화학반응에 의해 콜로이드 상태로 제작하는 방법 등이 있다.

The core-shell InGaN/GaN Multi Quantum Well-Nanowires (MQW-NWs) that were selectively grown on oxide templates with perfectly circular hole patterns were highly crystalline and were shaped as high-aspect-ratio pyramids with semi-polar facets, indicating hexagonal symmetry. The formation of the InGaN active layer was characterized at its various locations for two types of the substrates, one containing defect-free MQW-NWs with GQDs and the other containing MQW-NWs with defects by using HRTEM. The TEM of the defect-free NW showed a typical diode behavior, much larger than that of the NW with defects, resulting in stronger EL from the former device, which holds promise for the realization of high-performance nonpolar core-shell InGaN/GaN MQW-NW substrates. These results suggest that well-defined nonpolar InGaN/GaN MQW-NWs can be utilized for the realization of high-performance LEDs.

In the field of single-molecule spectroscopy, it is essential to analyze luminescence Intensity changes that result from a single molecule. With the CdSe/ZnS core-shell structured quantum dot photon emission data Bayesian multiple change-point estimation is done with the gamma prior for Poisson parameters and truncated Poisson distribution for the number of change-points.

Core/shell CdSe/ZnS quantum dots (QDs) are synthesized by a microfluidic reactor-assisted continuous reactor system. Photoluminescence and absorbance of synthesized CdSe/ZnS core/shell QDs are investigated by fluorescence spectrophotometry and online UV-Vis spectrometry. Three reaction conditions, namely; the shell coating reaction temperature, the shell coating reaction time, and the ZnS/CdSe precursor volume ratio, are combined in the synthesis process. The quantum yield of the synthesized CdSe QDs is determined for each condition. CdSe/ZnS QDs with a higher quantum yield are obtained compared to the discontinuous microfluidic reactor synthesis system. The maximum quantum efficiency is 98.3% when the reaction temperature, reaction time, and ZnS/CdSe ratio are $270^{\circ}C$, 10 s, and 0.05, respectively. Obtained results indicate that a continuous synthesis of the Core/shell CdSe/ZnS QDs with a high quantum efficiency could be achieved by isolating the reaction from the external environment.
