CLEO: 2013
Year: 2013 | Conference Paper |
Quantum dots (QDs) are interesting material options for the lighting and display markets, however, several limitations have limited QD applicability. This tutorial will review both limitations and breakthroughs in QD performance that has led to their recent commercialization in both of these markets.Show More

Quantum dots for displays and lighting

We have reached the long-sought single exciton gain regime in dense colloidal II-VI semiconductor quantum dot films. Transient spectroscopy details their exciton dynamics, informing further development of single material based lasers across the visible.Show More
Novel distributed feedback lasers were created in densely packed colloidal quantum dot single exciton gain media. The optically pumped lasers demonstrated internal efficiency of 28%, spatially coherent beams, average power of 400 μW.Show More
Red, green and blue distributed feedback lasers based on dense colloidal CdSe quantum dot thin films were optically pumped in quasi-steady state. The red lasers showed 32% internal quantum efficiency and 400 μW output power.Show More
Wavelength engineered nanocrystal colloidal quantum dots were used to create a thin solid films. Very low thresholds for light amplification were achieved in these red, green and blue film by a single exciton gain mechanism which also enables optical gain with quasi-steady pumping source.Show More
Epitaxial-like colloidal quantum dot films are demonstrated as potential single material system for red, green, and blue lasing. These prospects derive in part from the access to single exciton gain in the optically dense films.Show More
We report on wavelength-variable lasing from optical gain media composed of colloidal quantum-dots (CQD) thin films across the visible spectrum. Exploiting single exciton gain enables amplified spontaneous emission (ASE) and vertical cavity lasing at very low optical pump thresholds. The average number of exciton per CQD at the ASE threshold is ;~ 0.8, which significantly reduces losses from e...Show More
A new nanocomposite material was created by embedding colloidal CdSe-based quantum dots (QDs) within single crystal nanoporous gallium nitride (GaN) host. High efficiency luminescence and wavelength-engineered ability of colloidal QDs combined with high performance of nitride blue LEDs suggest this nanomaterial's potential for solid state lighting.Show More
We demonstrate robust excitonic gain from colloidal close-packed, CdSe-based nanocrystal quantum dot thin films at record low threshold excitation energy of 90 μJ/cm2 for amplified spontaneous emission. The optical gain is employed in pulsed optically pumped quantum dot vertical cavity surface emitting lasers in the green and the red, respectively.Show More
