Summary: The all-solution process for inorganic perovskite nanocrystals (PNCs) LEDs shows great potential for new-generation illumination and displays, but the challenge lies in the injection barriers and charge injection imbalance. The introduction of CBP into the hole transport layer (HTL) efficiently modulates the charge carrier mobility and energy level, resulting in barrier-free charge injection and optimal performance for solution-processed PNC LEDs. The luminance of red LEDs reaches 2990 cd m(-2) and the external quantum efficiency achieves 8.1%, with improved turn-on voltage and roll-off due to more balanced charge injection.

Summary: In this study, a new method has been developed to achieve high-resolution pixelated emission by controlling the thickness of transparent electrodes, resulting in a color-converting cavity that can selectively convert unpatterned quantum-dot white emission into saturated red, green, and blue emission. This method enables ultrahigh density red, green, and blue emission with a resolution of approximately 1700 pixels per inch, as well as achieving a color gamut of 111% NTSC.

Summary: This work proposes a new strategy to enhance the electroluminescent performance of perovskite quantum dots (PQDs) by creating a PQD film. By manipulating the ion distribution and trap density in the PQD film through varying pre-bias voltage and time, the device's capacitance value and luminous efficiency can be modified. The external quantum efficiency of the device increased from 2.81% to 7.95% through this strategy. This research provides a new approach for achieving perovskite quantum dot light-emitting devices with high luminous efficiency.

Summary: This study investigates the degradation mechanism of blue quantum-dot light-emitting diodes (B-QLEDs) and reveals the accumulation of electrons in the quantum-dots (QDs) as the main cause of device degradation. The accumulated electrons induce the detachment of ligands and degrade the hole transport layer (HTL), while surface defects and HTL decomposition also contribute to B-QLEDs' stability.

Summary: Chemical vapor deposition (CVD) using liquid-phase precursors has limitations in synthesizing large-area transition metal dichalcogenide (TMD) thin films. However, a promoter-assisted liquid-phase CVD process with transition metal-containing precursor homogeneously modified with an alkali metal halide can successfully synthesize high-quality large-area monolayer molybdenum diselenide (MoSe2) with superior electrical transport characteristics.

Summary: Researchers have successfully demonstrated single-photon pulses at a telecom wavelength with a Gaussian-like temporal mode profile from a cavity-coupled single quantum dot. By engineering the exciton dynamics and utilizing cascade recombination, they are able to modify the rise and decay dynamics of single excitons, leading to possible purification of single photons at high excitation power. Additionally, coupling quantum dots into a low Q cavity mode results in a Gaussian-like spatial mode profile, bringing a high collection efficiency.

Summary: In this study, indirect-bandgap transition lasing under continuous-wave excitation at room temperature is demonstrated in an ultra-thin WS2 disk. It is shown that a 50-nm-thick WS2 disk provides sufficient optical gain and whispering gallery modes for lasing action. These results offer a new direction for van-der-Waals-material-based nanophotonics and introduce the possibility for optical devices based on indirect-bandgap materials.
