A duo of researchers and fellows at Samsung Electronics have, in an industry-first, proved the potential of Quantum dot light-emitting diodes (QLEDs) for industrial functions in a brand new research. On November 27 (London), this research on the commercialization of QLEDs was printed by Nature, the world’s main multidisciplinary science journal.
The authors of this groundbreaking undertaking are Dr. Eunjoo Jang, Samsung Fellow, and Dr. Yu-Ho Won, a Principal Researcher on the Samsung Advanced Institute of Technology. By bettering the construction of Quantum Dots, the group managed to massively enhance quantum effectivity, in addition to lengthen the lifetime of the QLED component. The group discovered, on the conclusion of their research, that their methodology had improved quantum effectivity by 21.4% and elevated the QLED lifetime to 1,000,000 hours.
“Thanks to Samsung’s distinctive core material technology, we were able to work towards exploring the potentials of next-generation displays,” famous Dr. Jang. “Going forward, we are looking to expand the range of development of ecofriendly displays by adopting Quantum Dots in new structures.”
“This study has enabled the production of Quantum Dots with high efficiency regardless of shell thickness by providing a better understanding of the mechanism that produces Quantum Dots,” added Dr. Won.
In 2015, Samsung launched its Cadmium-free (Cd-free) Quantum Dot TV and continues to steer the event of subsequent technology eco-friendly shows, having obtained over 170 patents on component construction to this finish.
