Researching CdZnS/ZnS (GT) Quantum Dots in Cathodoluminescent Mode

Abstract

Application field of UV light sources is getting larger at the last decades. Among the most widespread are high and medium pressure vacuum lamps. But there currently is a trend of moving away from using mercury both in household applications and manufacturing. This creates a necessity to conduct research and development for UV sources made and operating without Hg. Cathodoluminescent UV sources are in this category. One of the possible ways to create a viable UV anode phosphor is using quantum dots with needed spectral characteristics.
