Enhanced emission directivity from asymmetrically strained colloidal quantum dots.


ABSTRACT: Current state-of-the-art quantum dot light-emitting diodes have reached close to unity internal quantum efficiency. Further improvement in external quantum efficiency requires more efficient photon out-coupling. Improving the directivity of the photon emission is considered to be the most feasible approach. Here, we report improved emission directivity from colloidal quantum dot films. By growing an asymmetric compressive shell, we are able to lift their band-edge state degeneracy, which leads to an overwhelming population of exciton with in-plane dipole moment, as desired for high-efficiency photon out-coupling. The in-plane dipole proportion determined by back-focal plane imaging method is 88%, remarkably higher than 70% obtained from conventional hydrostatically strained colloidal quantum dots. Enhanced emission directivity obtained here opens a path to increasing the external quantum efficiencies notably.
