Abstract

In this study, colloidal ternary ZnxCd1-xS white light quantum dots (WQDs) were prepared, which have the characteristics of broad emission window. We used epoxy, styrene ethylene butylene styrene block copolymer (SEBS), and silicone as encapsulate materials to pack the device. The results show that the Zn0.5 and Zn0.8 have band edge and surface state emission. The quantum yield (QY) and particle size of Zn0.5 and Zn0.8 WQDs is 19, 32 % and 4.5±0.5 and 3.1±0.5 nm, respectively. The white light-emitting diodes (WLEDs) were obtained by mixing WQDs with different resins, and pumping by UV chip. The luminous efficacy is 6.7 and 8.5 lm/W for Zn0.5 and Zn0.8-based WLED by using epoxy resin as encapsulate material. Moreover, the long period test can maintain 201 and 184 h for Zn0.5 and Zn0.8-based WLED, respectively. The results of this study present that the device encapsulated by epoxy resin can improve the luminous efficacy and stability of device. This outstanding finding may contribute to the future development of solid-state lighting (SSL).
