Abstract
Phosphor with efficient and broad range emission is necessary for lighting applications. I-III-VI group quantum dots (QDs) have the advantages of non-toxic composition and large adjustable spectrum range, and have potential applications in the field of lighting. However, the efficient luminescence of these QDs at shorter wavelengths still needs further study, which is crucial for the development of high color rendering index white light LED devices (WLEDs). In this work, wide visible range emitting AgInS2/ZnS QDs with broad band and high luminous efficiency were obtained by altering the Ag/In ratios and Zn2+ inter-diffusion with cation of AgInS2. Photo-luminescent (PL) wavelength range of the obtained core-shell structured AgInS2/ZnS extended from 703 nm to 524 nm with high PL quantum yield (QY) and stability. The champion device based on the optimized AgInS2/ZnS QDs exhibits warm white light (correlated color temperature = 3652 K) characteristics with high color rendering index (CRI Ra) of 92.85 while maintaining excellent color stability under different driving currents. These properties are far superior to those of WLEDs with YAG phosphor.
期刊介绍:
Optics Communications invites original and timely contributions containing new results in various fields of optics and photonics. The journal considers theoretical and experimental research in areas ranging from the fundamental properties of light to technological applications. Topics covered include classical and quantum optics, optical physics and light-matter interactions, lasers, imaging, guided-wave optics and optical information processing. Manuscripts should offer clear evidence of novelty and significance. Papers concentrating on mathematical and computational issues, with limited connection to optics, are not suitable for publication in the Journal. Similarly, small technical advances, or papers concerned only with engineering applications or issues of materials science fall outside the journal scope.
