Abstract

Color-conversion efficiency enhancement of hybrid light-emitting diodes (LEDs) by cadmium-free colloidal quantum dots (QDs) and a novel selective area nanocavities structure has been demonstrated. Combining nanoimprinting and photolithography techniques, nanocavities array can be fabricated at designated locations on the LEDs. The color-conversion efficiency of selective area nanocavities LED can be enhanced by up to 13%. The significant color-conversion efficiency enhancement is attributed to resonance of InP QDs emission in nanocavities and nonradiative energy transfer from LED active layers to InP QDs, which has been investigated and characterized by finite domain time-domain simulation, electroluminescence, and time-resolved photoluminescence measurements. This hybrid nanostructured device, therefore, exhibits a great potential for the applications of multicolor lighting sources and micro-LED.
