Abstract

A facile, large-scalable solvothermal synthesis of copper indium sulfide (CIS) quantum dots (QDs) and their application to the fabrication of QD-based white light-emitting diodes (LEDs) are reported. Depending on CIS QD growth time of 2 versus 5 h, the core/shell structured QDs of CIS/ZnS exhibit tunable emissions of yellow-orange with excellent quantum yields of 55%-91%. A white QD-LED is realized by applying CIS (2 h)/ZnS QD as a blue-to-yellow color converter. Furthermore, a white QD-LED having a blend of yellow and orange QDs is fabricated to improve a color rendering property through spectral extension, and its electroluminescent properties are evaluated.
