Polymer-II-VI Nanocrystals Blends: Basic Physics and Device Applications to Lasers and LEDs

Hybrid thin films that combine organic conjugated molecules and semiconductors nanocrystals (NCs) have been deeply investigated in the previous years, due to their capability to provide an extremely broad tuning of their electronic and optical properties. In this paper we review the main aspects of the basic physics of the organic-inorganic interaction and the actual state of the art of lasers and light emitting diodes based on hybrid active materials.
