Multiparticle Synergistic Electrophoretic Deposition Strategy for High-Efficiency and High-Resolution Displays.

Abstract

Colloidal nanoparticles offer unique photoelectric properties, making them promising for functional applications. Multiparticle systems exhibit synergistic effects on the functional properties of their individual components. However, precisely controlled assembly of multiparticles to form patterned building blocks for solid-state devices remains challenging. Here, we demonstrate a versatile multiparticle synergistic electrophoretic deposition (EPD) strategy to achieve controlled assembly, high-efficiency, and high-resolution patterns. Through elaborate surface design and charge regulation of nanoparticles, we achieve precise control over the particle distribution (gradient or homogeneous structure) in multiparticle films using the EPD technique. The multiparticle system integrates silicon oxide and titanium oxide nanoparticles, synergistically enhancing the emission efficiency of quantum dots to a high level in the field. Furthermore, we demonstrate the superiority of our strategy to integrate multiparticle into large-area full-color display panels with a high resolution over 1000 pixels per inch. The results suggest great potential for developing multiparticle systems and expanding diverse functional applications.
