Abstract

ZnS:Tb/CdS core/shell nanocrystals (NCs) were synthesized by reverse micelle method, and with a core crystal diameter of 3.0 and a 0.5 nm thick CdS shell and used as an electroluminescent material. Electroluminescent (EL) devices having a hybrid organic/inorganic multilayer structure were fabricated. Electron–hole recombination was confined at the ZnS:Tb/CdS NCs layer. Three emissions peaked at 440 nm form ZnS host, 546 nm ( 5D 4– 7F 5) and 577 nm ( 5D 4– 7F 4) of Tb 3+ center were observed when the hybrid EL device at a bias of 13 V. The maximum luminance of the ZnS:Tb/CdS NCs-based reached 19 cd/m 2 at 25 V.
